Severe Weather Snow / Ice Weds 28 FEB ( Onwards ) READ MOD NOTE POST#1

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!

Quote from Gaurdian: The M9 near Stirling is blocked after a lorry jack-knifed in 8ft (2.4m) snow drifts.

That’d be the drifting. It doesn’t mean 6.5 ft fell.

All I got in Ballincollig was the most restful sleep and maybe 2 cm of snow. No winds, no storm, no heavy anything.

Now I have to work from home because you know shelter in place until 1800 because the forecast is for large regions rather than individual areas.

But good luck to those of you who actually got the promised record snow and storm. Hope you are all safe.

Woke up to pure madness here (between Naas and Blessington)

Howling gale hasn't relented one bit since going to bed, still driving snow and well over a meter in height were the drifts have accumulated.

I'll try getting better pictures when there's day light - these'll have to do in the meantime.

Check out the kids scooter which I've ringed.

When is it due to stop? Cabin fever has me in its grip now.

Site won't let me attach pics

I can't attach images either... Seems to be disabled which absolutely sucks to give any context to peoples reports

Out in Clondalkin and have been awake every hour seeing how it was going, snow and wind was crazy at stages,
Still snowing now, nice accumulations and some of the drifts on the roads and in gardens look a few feet deep

sicknotexi

Emma was too harmless a name for a decent snowstorm. Needed a greek/roman femme fatale name for a true record breaking event.

Bit of a damp squib tbh.

Im just going to bed - an impromptu session started in the pub - up to 4 foot drifts, I never thought id see it but I couldnt find my door when I got home - A 6.5ft wall of snow fell into the hall! Anyone driving around here before the council tractors are out will get into serious trouble - the drifts are enormous!!

A snow drift decided to form right outside my front door. I had brought the shovel in to dig out.

Jobstown/Citywest it's absolutely ****ed here. Easily got there 100cm in sheltered places. Can't see out of anything of my windows due to snow stuck to the glass.

Couldn’t sleep! Snow has finally stopped here in D15. Defo seems to be a bit of a thaw happening.

DOCARCH

Holy cow! Lots of snow in Dublin 16! 27cm, on the level, with deeper drifts.

Still snowing but appears to be quite wet snow.

D9: really disappointed. Doesn’t seem like any new covering. Same bare patches still on footpath outside. Don’t understand. Did the storm just bring wind not snow in north Dublin?

Yeah virtually zero in north Dublin. Once it’s bright I’m heading out.

Everything is falling here at the moment just by N25 in Castlemartyr, Snow,Snow Pellets, Sleet,Rain. Right battle going on. Snow accumaltion on the ground is at the highest it's been since this started, historic event happening if this isn't going to let up for hours.

Liffey4A

Nothing of any significance fell in Dundalk.
Very windy though. Gust of over 100 kmh

Mr Bumble

Still full on blizzard in Delgany....been doin g this for six hours and no sign of any let up

kod87

Starting to pick up a little bit here, hopefully we can get a burst heavy enough to give a few more cms

jooksavage

Looking out the window in Thurles. Looks like we've dodged the storm so far.
