    will be a snow day in dublin methinks


    Relentless and it's piling up. Hard to differentiate the snowfall from the drifting at times.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 319 ✭✭spoonerhead


    This is the heaviest snow I have ever seen in this country. Far worse than any in 2010.

    This is insane

    I don't know what the situation is in other parts of Dublin but the situation here near Santry is going downhill fast.

    No way schools open.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 985 ✭✭✭mallards


    Wicklow gap will be impassable in the morning. I've around seven inches of snow here at the minute and it's still piling in.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 167 ✭✭redmond08


    Is this forecast to keep falling like this till the morning or will it get heavier before than in the city centre?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 414 ✭✭noisenotmusic


    3:20am and the sky looks like daytime over Dublin, never seen anything like it.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,002 ✭✭✭BLIZZARD7


    8cm + here in D14 now, still relentless. This is a great week already.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,905 ✭✭✭✭Bob24


    Do people think we are getting enough for a red warning when the met service wakes up?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 152 ✭✭jds0ur

    Swords in the same way


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,075 ✭✭✭Artane2002


    I'd say there's close to 10cm here in Dublin 5.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,918 ✭✭✭Birdnuts


    Just got an update from near Kill Village = 4-5cm now on the ground with just about one lane on the nearby M7 passable


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,633 ✭✭✭bassy


    Not the heaviest snow I've seen here in north kk and it's no where near 2010 yet.couple of cms here now and it's lightly snowing as I speak.but could be a different kettle of fish come the morning and the next day or 2.

    Belting down in Finglas.The kids will be so happy when they wake in the morning


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,209 ✭✭✭ebbsy


    Rumble of thunder in Ringsend. :eek:

    I work there. Can you tell me what it's like there please.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,491 ✭✭✭Ninthlife


    Given the reports on here for Dublin and commuter belt areas surely any commute by early morning is going to be chaotic at this stage.

    Can definitely see a Red warning by lunchtime

    Those who have to travel stay safe


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,002 ✭✭✭BLIZZARD7


    There will actually be a foot down by morning if this keeps up.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 80 ✭✭starburst87


    Not a flake in Wexford


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,033 ✭✭✭Snowbie


    No let up at all and more to come. Intensity at insane level.
    This is on a par with Jan 1987 and that was epic.

    Edit: now a massive shower of hail in the mix. Thought the windows bout to implode.

    How can one miss out on all this fun

    Temp -1.7C
    Dp only deadly

    temple bar cam seems to be down


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 937 ✭✭✭snowstorm445


    Beginning to clear a little now after intense showers for nearly 3 hours now. No good at guessing this sort of stuff but I’d say it’s more than 5cm, very happy with that.

    The best snow I’ve seen in years, makes the northwesterlies look like drizzle. Pure white gold. Please god it won’t melt in the spring sunshine.

    Looking out the window you'd swear we were in Norway!!

    Thought I saw another flash of lightning there a minute ago but it was just the neighbour directly across the road taking a photo of the snow on his phone from the top bedroom window!!
