It has been trying to snow here outside Sligo for the past two hours but looking outside now I think we are about to get the same as ye had

No snow here at all in West Mayo feeling cheated

runawaybishop · 28-02-2018 03:55PM

Frank Bullitt · 28-02-2018 03:55PM

Thawing nicely here in Marino/Fairview.

Then it will blow your mind that there are townlands beside each other in Meath called Muff and Knobber.

I have actually been on the Knobber-Muff road

Have you been to Beaverstown in Tipperary or North Co Dublin whilst you going or coming from Muff?

Pft, that's not cheated. I'm in the middle of the "red alert" here in Wicklow and there is nothing. It's actually a lovely sunny day here and got loads done around the place!

And nobody seems to be passing any heed of that big line of showers that is over the West and Northwest

_Kaiser_ · 28-02-2018 03:58PM

Sunny and been thawing out in Laois here the last hour or two

lubie76 · 28-02-2018 03:58PM

Really battering down in Sligo town now at last - was only sparse showers between sunshine all morning..

If they were over Dublin the site would be in meltdown

It's being discussed extensively on Liveline.

cherryghost · 28-02-2018 04:00PM

Very minimal thawing here in Clondalkin. I expect a few more light/moderate showers before sundown, before another quiet period, and probably of more explosive heavy showers overnight. Quiet morning tomorrow before ramping up in the afternoon. Many places will see prelude heavy snow showers before the actual band of heavy precip arrives Thursday evening.

spookwoman · 28-02-2018 04:01PM

Bit of heat in the sun here in Waterford causing some thaw.

Villain · 28-02-2018 04:01PM

If people think they have seen Blizzards already they are in for some surprise tomorrow evening

Would they be able to localize forecasts that well? What with the wind blowing snow all over the place, the snow doesn’t exactly obey county lines.

Good point, would probably need more stations.

It's a long old walk from Beavertown to Muff...

Scubadevils · 28-02-2018 04:04PM

Snow just started again in Lusk... a pretty dark sky again after a couple of hours sunshine.

smokingman · 28-02-2018 04:05PM

Loads of snow in Athy. Had a clear spell at lunch so threw the drone up.
Had a mad scramble to bring it back when it started belting down again...

LOL . Some counties are fairly big and have a range of topography/climate type so for example Wicklow could be split into coastal Wicklow, highland Wicklow and western Wicklow,.

Would be an actual Science based way of giving warnings instead of based on how the country was divided into counties a few hundred years which does not work as I've outlined already.

Would add subtelty to the warning system that more accuratly reflects what's happening on the ground.

So something like Parishes..Damn I don't even know the parish I live in...
