MOD NOTE

This is a busy thread and as a result the Mod Team will be taking a zero Tolerance approach to trolling, flaming and personal abuse.

Don’t say you weren’t warned!!

And please don’t feed - report & let the Mod team deal with Troublesome Posters/Trolls

Time to start a new thread as the other one reaches its capacity!

I'm sure kermit.de.frog will add a forecast and keep it updated for us.

So to kick it off a few mouth watering charts of the snow and cold potential over the coming days, stay safe.

Looking very windy going into Thurs night and look at those windchill readings!

I'm up since 3:30 this morning for work and not a hope of me sleeping now. The excitement is killing me, hasn't been any snow for a few hours now in the curragh but we got a lot throughout the night and then today.

My mind is erupting.. can’t compute this.
Jet stream is backwards.
Wind coming from the wrong direction.
Sliced pans top the Nasdaq and Christmas fm back on the air for tomorrow!!

Impressive stuff from Cork!!

Latest guidance would give me increased confidence of a complete snow event tomorrow evening.

Euro4 a little "concerning", no?

ICON has precip a little further north than previous though.

pimpmyhat

come on snow.
Sligo will welcome you with open arms,
call around for a visit.

That's a good point I think, I wonder what weight of snow would be necessary to collapse the average Irish slate roof...

A square metre of tile roof would weigh around 35kg.
25cm of snow on top of that would weigh approximately 25kg depending on the type of snow.
Your roof will be grand.
The bigger danger would be if it moves off en masse.

Almost non-stop snow in Ashbourne tonight. Yesterday only produced 2 inches. Tonight's streamers look relentless so hopefully that will compensate for yesterday.

Quick, get on to the Minister, Met Eireann, Dublin Bus, Luas, the emergency services etc. and tell them your news.

A lot of models don't have precipitation reaching Dublin at all tomorrow, generally getting no further than maybe Bray.

Coming down heavy in D16. Sounds like rain hitting the window, very windy.

I don't think what is happening now can be called a blizzard.

Wait till tomorrow.

Blizzard is dangerous and poor visibility and drifts.

Tonight is just snow with some wind. Big difference.

Yes I can identify with the excitement, I'm looking forward for some bushcraft in a cave in the Burren tomorrow night, going to set up camp,have all the outdoors equipment etc....
It's something I always wanted to do,camp out in a rocky hollow in the snow.
Light a fire outside....boiling my own tea etc
Cooking chicken on the fire......

Yea. I've been out in my garden a few times tonight and the brightness is very strange.

The low cloud and the blanket of snow creates this type of glow where when its not snowing its actually very bright.

Ah here my street lights are gone in my estate, now I cant see how much snow .... unless I look out the back window.

Very fine snow falling at the moment, mixed with the wind its creating a nice dusting.

Annoying how I seem to live in a narrow corridor in south Cavan that is missing out on these showers again tonight
