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!

Ballaghaderreen Area:

Bright and sunny all day. Temps didnt get above -1. Calm until about 2 hours ago. Tiny amount of snow fell a couple of days ago, but none since then. All businesses closed today at 1pm, which was odd considering the almost perfect, and quite normal winter weather we are having. Farmers and Urban customers of ours scratching their heads bewilderment at the National Red warning all day. It is almost like the East coast is on an entirely different planet. Work closed today purely for insurance reasons. Basically if anyone had an accident during the Red Warning, either travelling to work or in work, you can guarantee the insurance firms would not cover you. Just in from a walk with the dog. A bit windy, but no snow. In fact, the temps have risen a bit. Looking at the charts, It is doubtful we are going to get anything tonight or tomorrow.
As some folks here are saying, due to the overkill on the warnings, they have a danger of not being heeded going forward.

Been lightly snowing in Sligo town for at least 1.5 hours. Someone tell me the rain in Dublin might turn to snow here in time...

The rain in Dublin is snow for me. I think you’ll be ok.

The road which had thawed outside my house is basically all white again in Cork City. Sign of things to come?

It's freezing rain for me, Rougies might be correct with his comment.

The netweather Wales forum is reporting proper heavy snow so we can assume it will be the same when it gets here. Also because it is so windy it is not going to stay on flat surfaces. Check for the corners and areas out of the wind for accumulations

lintdrummer

Just to add to the Dublin rain/snow debate... I was sure looking out my window in Chapelizod that it was drizzle I was seeing but I stepped outside to do the fleece test and it was the finest snow I've ever seen. Lot's of it too. Never seen anything like it before.

Not much at all yet in the city centre.

I'm currently in Ballincollig (Country Cork) and while it's cold and getting dark, there are children playing outside in some snow.

We closed office at 1400 following the red weather alert and nothing so far, no fresh snow since this morning and there is not even the slightest wind around.

From the news and panic, one would think the day after tomorrow would arrive but nope it's calm.

I got promised 60 cm of snow, I want my snow!

If Siobhan Ryans latest forecast is anything to go by we will very soon be getting that and a lot more besides.

Very fine powdery snow falling in Clondalkin. Looks like rain from inside but it's definitely not once you go out to check and it's covering in footprints.

irishfeen

Very strange here in Cork - front coming in from the south with light snow but for all the world outside the snow seems to be blowing from the north .... WTF??

polydactyl

Missed the weather forecast as it was he little ones bed time!!!! When will a link be available. Anyone?

Lightning I think in East Wall

Went out to check the precipitation in D14 and its 100% not rain! I still couldn't even tell when I went outside as it felt wet against my hand but then I came inside again and what do you know, sparkly little ice crystals all over my jumper

Itssoeasy

Ive to try and watch siobhan Ryan's forcast but it seems to have changed the attitude of people online. Also part of my neighbour driveway which he had cleared hadn't got snow on it but it's got a kind of film on it. Is this the fine snow people keep mentioning ?

Had the warm front move through Wexford about an hour ago. Temp went to 0, snow turned to rain/sleet. Temp now back to -2 & snow again. I'm at the coast in gorey

To be honest I highly doubt anything falling is rain. Dublin airport reporting snow grains at 8pm.

Wind has really picked up in Grand Canal in the past 30 minutes. Kind of an eerie silence. No snow for a while now.

Temple Bar still pretty busy, only a few cobbles still visible. One man walking his bike since cycling it is probably impossible atm
