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!

Wouldnt be surprised if sleet fell briefly before the ppn gets going this evening. Id say the coast should see a decent amount of snow but it will be of a wetter variety. Ppn intensity trying to pick up here but its still really only light snow. Really hope this system delivers tonight!

The Virginia snow machine has not stopped since yesterday evening. Looking on New weather the Streamers are going to go another few hours. Was up the hill earlier and its knee high in places

It was worse in 1982 at this point, maybe not when the storm hits though.

Where are you based?

Snow starting to get more moderate in Cork City. Breeze picking up also

Ive seriously lost faith in the YR app, its snowing fairly heavy here in galway and its being saying no precipitation for the last few hours. I thought it was the bees knees.

It has been snowing quite a bit in North Dublin, Portmarnock today, but I don't think it's amounted to any real increase in snow depth on the ground. In the last hour or so there's been no snow at all.

Any latest satellite of the storm. How far is the real snow

Big snow flakes falling here in West Wicklow

Check the grass/side roads - it's blowing off everything else but is accumulating slowly.

Pretty consistent in D3, snow isn't heavy but I just came in from driving and the wind is very up.

Fair point, I'm not in Cork so can only speak for South Dublin right now. I vividly remember back then having drifts which completely covered my dad's car, could only make out a vague shape.

All the old people here in south Cork said that the last time we had this much snow is 1947. We already have more snow than 1982 here and this is before Emma has arrived. I spent 3 years in Austria and even I think this snow is remarkable. I understand why the shops are cleaned out here. Given how localized extremely heavy snow fall is proving to be, don't you agree that Met Eireann have an impossible job to strike the right balance here in their warnings?

Absolutely, it's an impossible job as you are always going to have people on both sides of the coin, storm in a tea cup to the apocalypse and with the unpredictable nature of weather, it's always going to be difficult. I don't have an issue with the warning system but the media hype of these events(extraordinarily as they are) has reached mass hysteria with people panicking like the world is about to end.

Ya, my father, who was a truck driver, jackknifed his truck in 1982. He is amazed by our pre-Emma snowfall here since Tuesday evening. Stay safe!

Drove today through Kilkenny, up to Kildare, back down through Laois, Tipp and home to Cork on the motorways.

Some difference around the place! Kildare was definitely the worst. Tipp meanwhile was snowless. Hats off to the lads in ploughs etc, the motorways were perfect to drive on. Home is 5 miles from the coast in East Cork. We've about 15cm already. It'll be an interesting few days!

Whiplashy

Rapid thaw on here on the Tipp/Kilkenny border. We're going to be out of snow soon.

Ooh wind really picking up in Dublin bay.

Vladimir Poontang

Is there some sort of invisible dome over Limerick?

Not a flake in sight. Windy and cold but that's it, bone dry otherwise

patneve2

Light/moderate snow, conditions deteriorating

Amprodude

Nothing here in north Cork.

When is the wind likely to pick up properly?

At a loss to explain these snow showers in Sligo town. Keep seeing we're not promised anything but we had a semi-decent fall this morning and snow showers keep happening with regularity.

Kinda hoping this is going to spring a surprise and we'll get a dumping tonight.
