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!

30 odd years and I have ever seen this much snow in Nenagh. Anyone talking **** about red alerts deserves a kick in the hole. Definitely correct decision for this area anyway. Prob over 20 to 25 cm now and still going strong.

Took my 5 month old daughter for a walk earlier. Lovely to get a photo with her in the snow.

I haven't been down town today yet, how is it looking around Pearse ST/Market Cross? Dromin Rd (from my window) looks pretty impassible by anything other than foot.

Cork is getting hammered all morning
Extraordinary conditions

Hammered is almost too soft a word for what is happening here. I never thought I’d say it but I think I want the snow to stop now, especially because we are down to 5 slices of sliced pan...

Thawing a bit in Clonmel (suppose it's to be expected around noon? Wonder when/if it'll freeze up again). Drips on side of the car, in cobwebs, snow melting down to nothing beside walls with no snow stuck to them, but still snowing moderately and seems to be getting heavier. Flakes are small, but not as small as the diamond dust crap we were getting last night. No wind whatsoever.

Snow still coming down heavy in Dublin 15

4ft drifts in Clondalkin
Clearing the tow truck and micra

Some serious drifts of snow on the local roads around South Longford.
It's at least four foot deep in places.

Will this powdery snow serve as a substitute for flour? Asking for a friend

Still snowing heavily here outside Naas.

Don't want to sound dramatic here, but I reckon we got hit pretty hard in particular.

Spent most of this am digging paths and clearing walkways etc.

I think we are snowed in on all directions, I'm assuming the military or council will be drafted in to clear the roads.

My neighbours cars have literally been buried in snow on the one side.

Can't keep up with the thread it's moving so fast, and my hands are pretty full - but does anyone know when the snow is expected to cease?

When's the thaw due?

And lastly, will all the snow in my back yard be a flood threat?

Thawing in Drogheda, Lidl has opened up a few stores in Ardee/Dundalk few other places from 12

Frank Bullitt

Snow on and off in D3, fairly windy and the snowdrifts are pretty big along my road, we have a massive one out the back.

Fair play to the authorities for calling it as they did, its undoubtedly saved many lives and accidents.

Snowing heavily now in Templeogue. Has been for the past few hours. Drifts are 3ft plus up against walls. Generally about 13 inches. But accumulating. All local shops shut. Bread running a bit low. But will be baking yummy porridge bread later. Milk rationing also, no more hot chocolates...

Speak Now

Snow continuing in Waterford. Getting heavier in fact.

MaceFace

Down by Ted Johnsons there are 5 1/2 foot snow drifts covering over half of the Monread Road.
Further down at Aldi the drifts aren't as high but still a few feet. Tractor having difficulty navigating.

Slight thaw here. No thaw up the road on dalkey hill

Incredibly disappointed here in Carlow town to have missed out, grey, dreary and spitting snow here, at this stage I'd sooner the sun broke through and cleared it up! :-(

thaw won't happen properly for a week or so. Heard them talking about it on the radio this morning. Temps should be about 5/6 degrees tomorrow which should help somewhat, but hard frost due sunday night which will make things treacherous for monday morning.

Robertstown, Kildare - I had to climb out the dining room window to clear the snow from the back door, epic snow and it's still going, above waist height in places.

There's a picnic bench under there somewhere.

I've never seen anything like this in Wexford, My.mother is 70 says this is the worst she has ever seen, There's drifts up over peoples 6ft front doors. Fire brigade is stuck up the road trying to shovel it out the last hour. Get pics up later

Down and down and down she comes - mid Limerick. Just imagine if they were proper sized flakes!

Grrr.

The proper sized flakes don’t cause the kind of accumulation we have seen. They are in general symptoms of wet snow. Near sleet. You don’t want them.

Still no snow here in north coastal Dublin. The front seems to have stalled over Dublin south.

PixelTrawler

There is a definite thaw in Clonsilla. Neighbours roofs starting to turn black again. Water is dripping off the icicles at a fair rate. Its been snowing the last 2 hours or so but the amounts are low. Its not snowing enough to replace whats thawing. Current temps on the outside sensor is +1c

That it is pretty amazing, thought you would be in the red zone.

SleetAndSnow

While it looks like it snowing heavily in cork city I believe it's actually thawing sadly. The leaves and stuff are green again and snow is falling down off car windows etc
