    Dublin CC, 4, 6, 12, 16 & 24, fear not!
    It looks like there's a band queuing up that should land in an hour or so and keep going for 2-3 hours;
    Correction on that, it's going slightly faster and veering the weensiest bit south from what I projected. It's also gathered a bit of oomp as it approaches Howth.

    City Centre's going to get a heavy pasting in about 10 minutes, and then all routes out to Tallaght after that. Won't last as long as I first said though.

    Seems to be more graupel than snow in north Dublin which is a bit frustrating at this stage.

    Hoping for beefy snow showers overnight and tomorrow with temps around freezing or just below

    Light snow in D5.

    Snowing again here in Maynooth, 3rd significant fall today. 1st fall was at 6, with a partial melt, 2nd around 9 which blanketed ground all lovely and white and didn't melt at all, and now this decent, proper, slow falling fluffy stuff is just adding on to it.

    Significant bit of snow here in donegal. Wasn't expecting that tonight


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 82 ✭✭davemc6832


    Unexpected snow in letterkenny!

    Here I am sitting here all jealous and I didn't even bother to look out the window! Unexpected bumper bonus snow.

    This is all just round one, right? Quite a lot of disappointed folk, it seems. I'm in D22, and it's fairly white outside. However, we haven't exactly been pelted with snow.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 798 ✭✭✭Snowbiee21


    Welcome back again snow!

    I haven't seen snow of this intensity in a long long time. It's a whiteout around Sandyford and it's sticking fast.
    Really?

    I'm in Leopardstown and it's a light skiff at best. It's lying but very thin on the ground, and only lasted for 5 minutes at the most.

    Snow starved areas of south Dublin and the city center buckle your seatbelts!

    Good example of just how localised the differences can be!

    Donegal Town, Sligo, NW Leitrim, keep an eye to the Northeast. Big streamer coming over Tyrone in your direction. Might just make it, you'd be forgiven for thinking Lough Neagh boosted it but that can't be right??

    None in D4, D6, D14 or D18 or most of city centre
    Seems to plenty in west dublin, the more southern suburbs ,and the north
    I guess we've just been unlucky so far :(

    Shankill has had a pasting in the last hour or so. A good inch and a half sitting on the ground now.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,911 ✭✭✭PokeHerKing


    I mean this in the nicest possible way but can the rest of the country stop stealing Dublins snow!!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9 Kingrosie


    Anything more for Dun Laoghaire?

    One from the archives - RTÉ’s news report (video) on the snowfall in 1982:

    Looks like you could end up with a fair bit. Stream going directly over you. Persistent snow. No warning for you but nice surprise. Radar brighter echoes all the while.
