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!

Santry in my opinion is a very dull looking place but just went for a walk there and my god, the place has never looked so beautiful. You'd wanna think we're in Norway with this constant snow falling.

I FÚCKING LOVE IT

Completely agree, students in limerick could easily attend school today. Like I said before, sun shining.

I'm in UL atm. Getting necessary lab work done.

There will be no Cork Examiner or Evening Echo printed tomorrow - the first time since the burning of Cork!

So that's confirmed it. Man can live without bread but the Examiner!?!? Now it really is the end of the world...

Dublin is a different scenario. I’m just speaking about limerick, probably a rush to the head with regards to the closure of schools etc in limerick.

I can't understand people saying schools in Limerick should be open "cos the sun is out now". School traffic peaks from 3-5pm, the red warning is active from 4pm. Going by your logic, you'd happily see students and the parents who have to collect them on the roads after 4pm? Common sense lads, it wouldn't go astray for some here.

Living in mid cork, the snow has missed us the last few days only have a light dusting, hard to believe we're going to be buried once Emma hits....the wind is very intense at the moment & a few flurries.

Hasn't stopped snowing here in celbridge since I was up at 7. Sometimes heavy, sometimes light and sometimes very blizzard like conditions.

Wicklow has no snow that’s nuts. Wicklow gets it when no one does no?

Better to play it safe. is it not better to discommode a few who might not be affected rather than endanger everyone who might ?

Its a forecast. They're not predicts of the future. They might get it wrong.

Very calm here in Rochestown, Cork. Not snowed for a while now, maybe an inch or so overnight based on my measurements.

Current depth in Celbridge!ðŸ˜

snow stopped here in Dunnshaughlin now and sun making an appearance.

I tried to measure the snow depth but it's different all over the place. Generally i'ts between 3 and 5 inches.

Wicklow gets it when other have rain because it's higher and colder.

There has to be something falling out of the sky :pac:

It sounds like you need a new boss tbh. What an asshole. It's not like you can control the weather or the national response to it.

I guess to a certain extent you can't always compare one snow event to another. 2010 saw 28 days of lying snow where I was. That was certainly unprecedented.

If we were to see 3/4/5 foot drifts tonight, then that's also a "once in a lifetime" level, even if the snow melts 48 hours later.

The levels here in D16 are not the same as 2010...yet. The ridiculous snow was never supposed to arrive until tonight, though the red warning calling for an extra 10-15cm of snow overnight never materialised here. We've had 4-5cm since 6pm yesterday, most of that in the last 3 hours. Seems like many other areas got it though.

Currently standing at 12cm total accumulation. We lost 2-3cm over yesterday afternoon.

I’ve experienced drifts a few times before in Ireland around where I grew up. It’s not a once-in-a-lifetime thing really. You just need wind to accompany the snow.

This is nothing like 2010 which nearly lasted a month, this has been going 2 days......

SleetAndSnow

Met eireann saying the red could be downgraded in northern areas and will be monitored.

Snowbiee21

WOW “record breaking accumulations she mentioned in the east

patneve2

light snow showers with the odd moderate/heavy burst every now and again. Very slight top ups...if the wind had been half of what it is now I reckon I'd have at least a foot compared to the 4-5 cm average (0-10cm coverage here) due to the wind in these parts.

Pretty much certain we'll get hammered with it tonight but there's always that doubt looking at certain models. Also hoping that MT's prediction of increased streamer activity comes to fruition. Also expecting +50 kt gusts

SleetAndSnow

Met eireann just said on the rte special that the north Western counties could be downgraded but is being monitored.
