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!

Home to help the folks for the few days.

The drifts are amazing in Roscommon.
Hard to tell if it's fresh snow or just existing being blown around at the mo.

Don't know how any creature could have survived outdoors last night.

It's still very wild out there.

Wasn't a huge amount of snow between midnight and now in Dublin 5

Rathnew/Wicklow Town lost power around 11:30pm last night, came back on around 2:30am. Woke up to a reasonable covering but nothing like as much as predicted although its hard to say the level we got as its all dusty and blowing around like a sand storm. Good few cm up by the door, but not enough to cover the grass or the road where its blowing about. Think it was the dusty crap more than decent flakes all night. It’s still going pretty much the same as when I went to bed. Enough for the kids to build their first snowmen

Currently in my folks in D12, plenty of snow about but nowhere near 2010. My next door neighbour in Firhouse/Ballycullen just sent me a pic of our road and the snow is in drifts easily 3-4 feet high in the middle of the road. Kind of sorry I'm not at home now!

Would love another good pelt of snow today but from reading MT's forecast it doesn't seem likely.

13 inches of snow fell here last night in Gorey with 2-3ft snow drifts and it's still snowing heavily.

Well it's gotten heavier anyway here in Cork City, no wind though.

Probably for Dublin. Nothing else exists for Leo & Co.

I’m switching from Thorntons, second time in 4 months they haven’t shown up.

South Kildare/Carlow border. I texted the boss to say I was coming in to Naas as we'd had so little last night.

He thought I was taking the piss.
Amazing difference 30 miles makes.

Are you in Castlewarren or Muckalee area? Nothing much in the town all night. A light barely there snow shower got twenty minutes just now but that was it. I wonder is your weather coming doen the hills or away from town?

Yes Muckalee area and it continues to snow. One can see on the netweather radar how the higher ground around Kilkenny city is getting heavier snow.

Another update from east KK: very little snow overnight. Maybe a centimetre. Wind currently 4km/hr.

We got some decent snow here north east Kilkenny.

Malahide end of Swords here, not too far from the sea. Had that fine ice/snow all night, a bit disappointed to see nothing extra really on the ground this morning. However the car opposite ours is white while ours is still red, both had been stripped of all snow by the kids yesterday. Made some stuff up for the birds and stepped out the back. I sank about 6-7 cm. That wasn't there 12 hours ago (kids had stripped the patio too, several toys have disappeared, presume they'll reappear during the thaw). The wind really mixed up the fall/sticking last night. Our front looks like nothing happened but the back got well covered. Hoping for some more nice big flakes today...

South Dublin disappointment
Nothing new. Still with the freezing rain and wind moving snow around into nice drifts but stripping it elsewhere.

Just back awake lads and as expected nothing accumulated since last night near the Seafront. Beyond disappointed

I would imagine you don't need to wander far to see some accumulations. Must be wind plus your location? Wicklow town only 200m from the sea has decent coverage. Would have thought your location was similar. Still chucking down here too.

It's very localised. Some places have barely any snow at the moment, so no reason for them not to be able to go out.

fair enough .. it may be the way RTE is reporting it, as if everyone is being left off school at 3pm and can tear off away back shopping and up and down the motorways .

Snowed in here in celbridge. Some drifts up to car height, possibly higher. Madness!!!

its ok , you're allowed outside now so you can start shovelling

I ran down to the main road to get some more pics. This is the main N25 between Waterford and New Ross. I don't know if you can really see in the pics but there are MASSIVE drifts across the width of the road, they're so cool but difficult to photograph.

I'm on the coast here north of Malahide and if anything it rained. It's up to 0.5c now

Based on MT's forecast back on page 369 it easily looks like there could be more snow in dublin today

Looks like my employer expects us into work here in ennis!! Plenty of snow overnight and still coming down.

Just not worth trying to get to work. Risks outweighs the benefits

leinad

About half a metre in the back garden in Rathdrum - more accumulated than 2010

roosterman71

In Kilbeggan, not much change since last night. Doesn't look like much snow fell. I feel there is a thaw on. The road has tracks to the tar from where traffic have been passing. Snow that was built up in the corners of windows, etc, is much less this morning and it is much wetter stuff

duffman13

Ten mins to get the back door open, shed has a mound of snow just over 3ft deep around it. I'm in Clondalkin, seems to be about 20cm sitting generally everywhere but the drifts are huge. Most snow ive ever seen in my life in this country.

charlietheminxx

I am so envious of you lot with your big snow! It has skipped Rush, the wind is still fairly strong but there was no further snow and the thaw has set in
