    Based on what we've had in Wicklow so far, I'm tempted to call BS on that.

    What’s to come is nothing to do with what’s passed already.

    Wicklow will see significant accumulations.

    Can confirm sleety rain here too. I'm sure it will turn back to snow very shortly.

    EDIT: After closer inspection it could be very very very fine snow that melts instantly on my very very very very very very dark blue jacket sleeve.

    Still nothing here. Covered 160kms to and from work. Sitting here since 4ish, impending doom... no snow, no wind :)
    Costing millions closing schools and businesses which felt no affect what so ever.

    I know safety is paramount, but its ridiculous that it can't be left to the various regions to decide.

    It has just started to sleet/rain here in Kinsale. We had proper dry snow falling earlier today but if this is Emma she appears to be brining rain/sleet, at least for now.

    True, I'm not actually making a prediction, but the Wicklow east coast so often gets away with it when the rest of the country is in a deep freeze.

    Great waves on the sea front today, though.

    It ain't rain at all in D5. It's very fine snow/small graupel. It's accumulating too. I can see it against my windowsill too.

    The wind is getting up again in cork and it's very cold. The snow where I live never really fully melted but where I've walked out the back garden is very slippy. I'm assuming that's happened other places.

    Go stand out in it. If ya don't turn white, fair enough. D9 and incredibly fine misty snow. Grit is starting to lose the fight. Footprints filling in nicely too.
