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!

Will all that rain be turning to snow in next band
On radar heading south east it shows lots of green coming after what we have

There’s no rain anywhere.

Looking at the lampposts here in north coastal Dublin it looks like a huge storm. Nothing much accumulating though. All to play for.

After the October 2011 floods in Dublin I thought to myself "imagine if all of that was snow", jokingly of course. Guess the joke's on me now. I like jokes.

It’s building in Gorey slowly but definitely surely. Dogs went ourside for a piss 30 mins ago and their snow prints are gone

It’s been basically snowing since 4pm, so the build up not quite as fast as I was anticipating. But I’m not going to work tomorrow. Happy days

Very little happening here in cork. Only snow is what we had since yesterday pretty much. Not much wind. Is Emma stalled a the moment and should we expect her to hit cork later on tonight?

I dont know what he's on about either, I just walked across the road to Aldi up on the Boghall, the snow in the carpark is a foot deep in places, nearly total whiteout, my footprints were gone as I walked back ten minutes later aswell, this is unprecedented, 12 more hours of this?!

Its obviously all just blowing up the Putland Road then. Seriously. Maybe the wind is at its strongest down here as it has no obstructions over the sea and after it climbs the Putland to the Boghall where ALDI is @ 157m the clouds are dumping what the winds down here kept aloft and then even more due to orographic lift

Getting pretty fierce in rathmines now. First time I’ve been able to clearly see flakes falling outside

Got a bit of a lull in the blowing snow so I could stick my phone out the window for a second, still very windy though! (D18)

sNow joke, does the roof have railings or a high parapet? It's 100km/h winds up there.

Is anyone in Dublin getting proper snow? Still getting them ice pellets in Blanch

Been getting snow for a while in the city, seems to be ramping up now tho

Skedaddle

A few cm in Cork City. It's currently a kind of small flake snow. Not ice pellets, but not the big fluffy stuff that we had earlier. It's quite intense though.

wakka12

Intensity noticeably kicked up another gear in D14. I can't imagine places in alpine ski resorts get winter storms any worse than this

Sorry if this has already been asked, but any of the experts here think we’ll get much/any in north Galway? Currently a bit of snow, but nothing dramatic. Thanks

Nowhere near Ireland, though it's effects are increasing.

Accumulating fast near Santry now.

If this is the light stuff imagine if that blob in the Irish Sea makes landfall

Every time I read another post about accumulations of the heavy 'fine' snow I pop my head out the Velux....

.....nope.......still just a dusting on the roads in my corner of Bray.

This deeper red blob out in the Irish sea better deliver the good stuff

Xanax yet to kick in.

Currently sitting at 8cm in Greystones last time I checked half an hour ago, likely 10 now.

Davaeo09

Just North of KK city its turned allot more consistent and dare I say heavier?

I think we are moving up through the gears now

As a biker that is absolutely Darwin candidate stuff riding in this weather. No doubt he had dropped it a few times before he decided to walk

It's quite unbelievable how thick some people are

Would that be same one who was ragging it about in the 5 inches of snow on Wednesday morning ?

Cheers.

Must say some of you who are looking more at the more subtle climatology - and you in particular - called this event from a long way off, months not weeks.

Major kudos where they're due to you, MT, GL, and a few others I'm forgetting to name for sure.

Thank you, I did underestimate it though for its extremes - I didn't want people to think I'm bananas for going mental nor did I want to disappoint myself like I did for Winter 2016-17.

Just remember these three words for a thing like this in future, sudden stratospheric warming.

That's the only thing of what made me call this several weeks ago (although on a much lower scale).

If it gets to the stage where you're saying "there used to be a shed in the garden" we'll know things are really bad :pac::P
