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!

Proper heavy snow now in Dublin 9. Emma is sorting me out eventually.

Yes, nice to see it after I'd given up. At least it will top up lying snow despite not sticking to cleared wet concrete surfaces.

Yeah, I'm out since 9.30 and its about a foot or so deep, if not deeper in places. Mind the edges of the footpaths - the blend into the road

Thanks for that

no real snow falling in Dundalk since last night... a good 3-4 inches on the ground...

One of the highest snowfalls so far is in West Dublin, Dublin 15 according to Siobhan Ryan ...40 cm at 9 am with another 10/15 on the way. Still snowing hard.

Can confirm moderate dinner plates in Malahide for the first time since Wednesday.

D 16, last night we got lots of snow but it was grains. Right now we have full on proper snow topping up last night. It's about 25 or 30 cm at least. Much deeper on drifts. No thaw to speak of. Could continue till evening too.

lolie

Very little snow fell here overnight but the wind has left big drifts and many secondary roads are impassable unless you drive a tractor

SeaFields

Very heavy in south Kerry now. Lovely altogether. Filling in this morning's footsteps.

I added it up, its been snowing now in D14 for about 28 hours

The emergency response guys seem to be thinking the country will reopen tomorrow.
What a joke it's snowing constantly here in Cork and we be lucky to be back on the roads Monday. Gerry was on thus morning saying the snow would turn to rain today, he's backtracking on this now. He's proven poor enough on his advice compared to the female staff last 2 days....even if it rains tomorrow the roads are going to be a no go until very best case Sunday

It's actually quite annoying. I certainly won't get anywhere tomorrow. Hasn't stop snowing in Midleton area all day and as I'm up quite high I can only guess it's a small bit worse where I am.

He hasn't been really. He said earlier that there will be further snow for a while this evening and early part of the night but that in the south it will turn to sleet and rain later in the night and early tomorrow.

Well some people have project deadlines for customers to meet and are tearing their hair out right now, but point taken when Mother Nature decides to go wild there's not a lot us mere mortals can do about it.

I can understand that alright but ppl just need to take a minute to relax life is stressful enough without complaining over everything the last few days is all I was trying to say

Darwin

Garden furniture will disappear at this rate, it was nice knowing you :pac:

Strangely enough there are drips of water coming from the icicles underneath the table, snow filling up and thawing at the same time.

esposito

Unbelievable snowstorm in Sandyford for the last hour. Incredibly heavy and biting easterly winds

Washout

It truly is snowmagedon in Adamstown and Lucan. no sign of it stopping

Ken Tucky

Hasn't stopped in Celbridge. Really deep in my estate with 3foot drifts in parts. It's getting wet out there though. Snow beginning to come off the roof tops in big amounts. Would not like to get caught under one of those.

86 years young on a sledge just outside Cork City. Well done Eileen.

Tzardine

Just outside Monasterevin. No real snow to speak of since yesterday. Still a lot of snow around from the previous few days however.

It is definitely starting to thaw though. I cant say that I mind, I love the snow and I have had a good week in it but it can move on now. We have no water since Wednesday evening (pipes frozen in the well) so another reason why I dont mind it thawing.

I long for a warm shower. And the wife has gotten away with doing the dishes the past few days, plenty stacking up for her. (Jokes)

The seriousness of this event is hitting home now. I have run out of milk.

If we could just lose a half a degree or that...very wet snow and not sticking to anything or cleared
surfaces YET...but maybe in D9 we have one more bite despite the thaw we had earlier.

The short range on met.ie is saying that places which are at 0-1C now should be dipping back down to -0 and -1 within the next few hours: https://www.met.ie/forecasts/short-range.asp

Can't put a number on it but this is definitely the worst (best) I've ever seen in South West Laois. This is currently the heaviest it has been over the last few days. Its surely exceeding 2010.

Kermit.de.frog

Snowing fairly heavily near Santry but pretty impotent to tackle the thaw.

Needs to be heavier.
