    Hardly a flake here in Ashford Co. Wicklow. Red alert lock down is very frustrating when the weather so far has been grand, schools closed yesterday and there was no issues what so ever, not sure these blanket red alerts are workable in the long term.

    it's advisory from 3pm today so if you feel you can get out and about there's nothing to stop you

    Being snowing here on Naas all morning, so there is a big hole in that radar! If I was subscribing to the Netweather radar I would be well miffed!!

    That's not Netweather it's Metrociel

    Can somebody else take a look at this?
    It shows nothing between North Dublin and Wexford, I assume it is just a glitch?

    No glitch, thats were I am- weather is cold and windy but no snow.

    Snowing in Oughterard most of the morning.
    I thought West Galway would get nothing until Emma came in later?

    Snowing away in dalkey. Gale still blowing

    That makes so much more sense, I've been like wtf-why is it so wrong when its been so good!

    I'm amazed at how little is accumulating here in my part of D9. Theres the same amount on the ground as midnight last night - and its been snowing pretty much ever since!

    Heavy snow atm. It must all be blowing away. Live on a very long road running East to West so this pretty straight Easterly must be whipping it all up.

    Yep I see what you mean now. Matches what I'm seeing with the Mk.I Eyeball.

    And it doesn't look like it's letting up anytime soon either.

    Mental weather.

    Wow, lots of snow on the east coast/inland. Any snow in Cork seems to be south of the river lee and nearest the coast

    Looking choppy and wintry in DunLaoghaire with snow even on the jetty.

    In the 07:55 forecast on Radio 1 earlier, Joanna Donnelly mentioned a risk of severe thunderstorms along the south and east coasts. Thus doesn't seem to have been picked up elsewhere, so I'm curious to see if others here concur with this

    This getting worse! Naas

    Beautiful day here in South Donegal. Extreme contrast to the video's I've seen of the North of the county. Wind does seem to be picking up this past while though. Hoping the snow does come so the kids can experience it.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 550 ✭✭✭weatherfiend


    Been snowing here constantly since I woke at 8.30. Some light showers but also much heavier ones too. Currently near white-out. Sandyford D18. Can’t even see 3 rock


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,576 ✭✭✭patneve2


    Appalling conditions. Much worse than yesterday. Dalkey area


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 25,118 ✭✭✭✭Kermit.de.frog


    Approaching blizzard like conditions near Santry again.

    Yeah something's not right. It's showing massive precipitation over Wexford, while the met.ie radar shows nothing there.

    Just popped out to get Gas and Elec, Jobstown/Citywest is pretty ****ed, the roads are barely drivable and went past Lidl where its bedlam. On a plus note get a txt at 7.45 saying not to come into work after 75% of the drivers said they wont come in and they had to send the poor shmucks who had turned up home.
