Beautiful conditions in Kilkenny for the last hour or so.

A nice prolonged snowfall just come to an end.

D.Q · 28-02-2018 04:55PM

Nothing at all in Wicklow again haha

Daniel2590 · 28-02-2018 04:56PM

Very dark skies coming into the east now

I was a bit sceptical about anything coming across from Wales in the due Easterly despite our Greystones friend describing the towering Cumulus over Bray but I'll be damned, Light shower of Mixed Graupel and Fluffy flakes falling on my Velux caught my attention so popped my head out and theres a big shower just off the seafront with either Bray or Greystones name on it. Very ominous looking and dumping a load over the flat sea just off the Seafront. Just popping up out of nowhere on the Radar returns.

This is a confusing chart for me. I'm unfamiliar with it. What exactly does it indicate?

Inquitus · 28-02-2018 04:56PM

Snow starting in Swords.

Kinsale about to get a very heavy shower according to netweather's radar

Can confirm it has gone very grey outside and looks like it’s going to bucket it down again.

Weather warnings in the EU. If you move your mouse over the coloured areas it will give you an indication as to the warning

Took this photo just this second out living room window. Snow shower in last hour has replaced some of thawed snow. We still have several inches of snow here and I hear from my brother 15 miles up the road in Cork city that they have nada!

Same here. We had some heavy showers which gave a good covering this morning but it has nearly all gone now.

Could well be thundersnow with this one or tonight’s showers

Genuinely surprised to hear that Cork City is only kicking out again now. Snowing here in East Cork for the last hour.

Much lying snow in the city? About 15cm here I reckon (roof of car measurement).

Kerrydude1981 · 28-02-2018 04:59PM

Had a few light attempts here

Come on beast lets be having you

In fairness the sun is hardly splitting the stones. ****ing freezing out there.

I was sitting in my car for a half hour earlier chatting to a buddy and had to move the car into the shade, it was baking in on top of us.

patneve2 · 28-02-2018 04:59PM

hefty enough shower approaching Dublin bay. More to the over howth/north dublin. Expecting a brief but heavy burst in a short while. Very windy, if the wind had been half of what it was I would have at least x2 snow but happy so far and can't complain with my coastal 5/6cm.

La.de.da · 28-02-2018 04:59PM

Snowing steadily for the last hour in Tipperary.

Wrap up well folks and stay safe on the roads.

It is on the Met Eireann website but thought I would link it here to avoid confusion.

I'm in Cork city and getting absolutely smeshed by snow over the last 30 minutes. All of the thaw pretty much covered over already.

sdanseo · 28-02-2018 05:01PM

South Dublin, you're up again in around 20 mins. Looks like a very heavy shower.

Isn't that just the Meteoalarm system that Met Eireann's own warnings feed directly into?

sdanseo · 28-02-2018 05:04PM

Met.ie 3hr forecast

Irish sea continuing to deliver ~2cm/hr over Dublin, Meath, Louth, Wicklow

West Cork though...if you're in Bantry there's going to be a run on SuperValu

Red warning for Cardiff. Impact based rather than numbers based warnings in the UK, and it's a big urban area, hence higher warning. Same with Scotland, warning covers Glasgow and Edinburgh.

MJohnston · 28-02-2018 05:04PM

It just got very dark in Cabra, D7.

SleetAndSnow · 28-02-2018 05:04PM

Visibility gone so low here in cork city, snow is heavy enough . Not sticking to the road her though still melting as it hits it but leftover footprint in old snow is gone! This has already surpassed 2010 down here

Artane2002 · 28-02-2018 05:04PM

Snizzle in Artane, Dublin 5.

It has just begun - mix of snow and hailstone - bucketing it.
