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!

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.

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

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

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.

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.

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

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

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

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

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.

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

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.

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

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.

WORD OF WARNING.

And feed the birds!!

But don't feed sea gulls (like one neighbour of mine - throwing food to them from her balcony).

You don't want to have them making a habit of staying around..

Non stop in D15 all day I'm a tall bugger and snow up to my knees

The snow plough/grit spreader just passed my house half an hour ago and made zero impact on the road here in north Tipp still bucketing down. Heaviest snow I have ever seen in my near 40 years that is without doubt.

Anybody else bored of snow yet?

:pac:

munsterlegend

It's snowing away again moderately here near Mallow. Great to be out and about in this weather and the children are having a ball. Be great if it lasted till Sunday but looks like tomorrow will put a big dent in it not that Emma seems to be going anywhere in a hurry!

This is amazing. On the dart line. Hypnotic. Press play

Heavy massive dinner plates now. Settling decently but the small snow last night was better for settling.

By the Phoenix Park here. My God it has been snowing forever, and is tipping down still. I cannot open back door to feed the birds.

I hear there may be a thaw tomorrow. That scares the bejaysus out of me, bad and all as the drifts of snow are. When it thaws and freezes on top of that, the place will be like an ice rink. Driving dangerous off the main roads, and impossible to walk without slipping all over the place!

I tried to walk up the road earlier, but I sank into the snow nearly up to my knees. Came back quickly!

The forecast for me was spot on though, have to say. Getting a twitchy bit of cabin fever though!

Achasanai

It's been consistently heavy here in D14 near Rathfarnham Castle since around 11 or 12. There seems to have been a slight thaw, but would imagine it's added significantly to the depth we had earlier (I'm only guessing, as I'm finished with going outside for the day).

There were heavy snowfalls in Cork city in 1978, 1982 and 1987. In 1987 temperatures dropped so low that people were able to walk and cycle on the Lough.

I sort of remember 78 - I was 4 though, and maybe memories of 82 have blended into it. I definitely remember 87, but this seems worse - probably because in 87 I didn't start very far outside my park and front garden. In 2010 we could walk on the Lough, and the ponds in the Glen froze over and my mad broke her hand trying to skate out on the frozen floods on the Lee Fields. The freeze in 2010 was worse alright, but this is epic snow.

Edit: My niece was born in March 95 and it snowed on that day too.

There's actually a semi thaw happening now, but it's still snowing - its dripping off trees and bushes a small bit.

Not settling on cleared paths and cars in Dublin 15.

SleetAndSnow

If it gets back to minus figures tonight in cork I can't see how it will turn from snow to rain. I mean it's gonna happen I know and will most likely wake up tomorrow with half the snow gone down here.
