Been living in this part of North Offaly near Clara for twenty years, no question the most snow we've had. December 2000 was epic, a polar low, but this is a different level. I cannot believe we will have a repeat tomorrow evening. Nature doesn't work like that...

I'm in Kilbeggan and I was expecting more. Only a few inches on the ground here outside the house

Ha!!! We about 25 miles north of Cork city and there is absolutely no snow...

It's crazy! Can see it on the radar and we're just on the edge of it. Hopefully tomorrow we see some snow chaos.

I don't understand how I'm getting away so lightly (so far). I'm 15k north of Cork city and 200m above sea level. We'd get snow a couple of times a year when the city would be bone dry.

This snow is coming from the east whereas most normal weather fronts come from the west. Take a look at this https://www.netweather.tv/live-weather/radar and see the weather fronts coming in along from Waterford. This is what’s hitting Cork. Mainly south coast; Yoghual, Midleton, Garryvoe, Carrigaline, Kinsale, Clonakilty all probably getting the worse, which is never the norm for snow in Cork. It’s usually northwest Cork that gets the most

Roads all white again. Light intensity now

Not good news for north Wicklow and south Dublin then, just as a few are slowly lining up from Wales now. What kind of reduction are we talking about?

When you say not good news do you mean they will get no snow or loads of sbow in South Dublin?

Reports of thunder in Cork, can’t say I’ve heard it myself

Hearing it over the last 45 mins due south of me down towards the coast. Midleton area.

harvester of sorrow · 28-02-2018 11:30PM

Living near Fermoy, and no snow all day.
Didn't even need to defrost the car this morning.

I was looking forward to some snow. :-/

Coming down again in D6w but nothing major. Might pick up maybe.

And it’s stopped again..

Sorry! Douglas. I just opened the blinds to look out again and the whole sky lit up

SleetAndSnow · 28-02-2018 11:32PM

My God looking at the netweather radar it looks like there is even more to come in cork. I'll be up all night!

Snow Lovers Winter Olympics

Streamer Irish Sea Dash: as expected the Eastern counties have dominated this event with strong showing so far from Dublin, Meath & Kildare but Cork are putting in a very late charge and could cause a surprise. Kildare & Dublin still look favourites to fight it out for the gold.

Emma blitz: the main event that everyone is looking forward to starts tomorrow evening with a real battle between Cork, Waterford, Wexford, Carlow, Kilkenny, Dublin, Kildare but every county in Munster & Leinster will fancy their chances. This could be the battle of the decade and could be a few records broken with this one providing some last minute jitters don't result in a complete flop which we know has happened before

Technical marathon - final event will start on late Fri/Sat and could be over very quickly or go on for a number of days. Very difficult to pick any winners for this as there's no previous form but the North & North west who dominated pre-qualifying over the winter might still have a surprise in store as they'll be disappointed with their showing so far

Note: Once again Wicklow have been disqualified from all events for breaching the >250asl limit

How has none of that landed in Waterford city it looked like it passed right over us

SleetAndSnow · 28-02-2018 11:33PM

Alright who found the snow shield generator and where is there an incinerator for is to burn it?

teddybones · 28-02-2018 11:33PM

My daughter lives in Cork city. She is over the moon. Wicklow was to get plastered and nothing and she is basking in a winter wonderland and very happy to have outdone her ma in the snowstakes. And tbh i am delighted for all ye Cork people. The snowshield died a slow and arduous death and not before time!

q85dw7osi4lebg · 28-02-2018 11:33PM

Much more consistent and heavy here tonight than last night ( East Meath)
