Temp falling back a bit here. Starting to settle on some surfaces that had been cleared. Santry.

I see some rainfall echos being picked up in the north Irish sea though.

MaccaTacca · 02-03-2018 03:36PM

Larger, heavy flakes now falling in Bray, and I think, though I’m not certain, that they’re starting to accumilate again.

patneve2 · 02-03-2018 03:37PM

Moderate snow verging on heavy. Medium sized flakes and becoming less marginal dalkey

Curious, that shows here in south Dublin being clear all day, but it has been snowing most of the day.

mirrorwall14 · 02-03-2018 03:39PM

I don't understand why the radar is showing nothing for North Kildare all day and it has NEVER stopped snowing. I'm actually getting a little cabin fever. At least if it would stop we could enjoy what we have but its pretty damn miserable and cold out there!

DominoDub · 02-03-2018 03:39PM

Lightly Snowing all day along the Liffey

Just now I think the battle between the Thaw effect and falling Snow is swinging in SNOW's direction

Yeah because WISHING for snow has any impact on what the weather will actually do. Rolling my eyes so hard

Ah I don't think she meant it like that. Probably more like just spare a thought for people who the snow is causing hardship for.

morticia2 · 02-03-2018 03:40PM

Getting heavy snow in Ballybrack again...compass may be swinging back to accumulation. Hoping that at some point tomorrow/Sunday it lets up enough to get to the shops; teenagers slurping their way through the 8L of milk I had in the fridge (now down to 3). Ah sure!

Hi guys. Just wondering if anyone has any idea of when this snow will let up and maybe some thawing might happen? Sorry to the snow lovers, but really need to get to Dublin airport from D16/24 area on Sunday morning and getting really worried as it is vital we get out that day. Thanks!

M50 is fine and most main roads.
You'll be fine by Sunday

is that actually a road...wow

Yeah the snow is so high it drifted at a ditch, flowed onto the road, continued drifting and then went over the ditch into the field across the road to continue, a large stretch of road fully blocked with snow. I don't know when I will be able to drive anywhere.

Beanybabog · 02-03-2018 03:43PM

It has been snowing all morning in D14 (Goatstown) with no sign of letting up. Cabin fever kicking in! I have a one year old who can walk but bot terribly far, or in snow, and I certainly can't wheel her in a pram, or carry her as I'm 7 months pregnant, so I've been in since Tuesday night. Dying to get to the local shop only 200 metres away for some goodies!

On the Netweather radar, the rain echo seems to have stayed in the same spot for over an hour. Could it be a glitch?

ricero · 02-03-2018 03:44PM

Have to say tv3's coverage has been very good and frequent. Shame on our national broadcaster RTE, shocking coverage from them.

Looks like a flame burning the Irish Sea

harr · 02-03-2018 03:44PM

Still getting this **** little snow while it’s heavy at times it’s not exactly sticking and I really need the temperature to drop back a degree or two to halt the thaw.
I need about two hours of heavy snow..

Snowbie · 02-03-2018 03:44PM

Heavy snizzle now like last nights muck but temp still falling slowly
1.3C
Dp -1.3C

cnocbui · 02-03-2018 03:44PM

Spot the road.

wakka12 · 02-03-2018 03:44PM

Everytime one of these cold spells happen in ireland it just makes me want to move to a cold country even more. I haven't experienced a cold spell that felt too long yet, honestly don't think Id ever get sick of snow

We’re the opposite. Due to fly to Edinburgh tomorrow from Dublin but reckon it’ll be fairly miserable up there. Hoping the flights are cancelled. However, we reckon things should be back more or less to normal tomorrow apart from a few delays.

Nice to be able to roll your eyes sarcastically in the comfort of your own home while people in healthcare have been in work for days on end assisting the sick. Real mature.

oh give over maude flanders, people are allowed enjoy snow.

purple hands · 02-03-2018 03:46PM

Still going since 10am or so in Rathmines and flakes looking bigger too, lovely to look at

Hoping it eases up before it's dark to allow for a wander!

McMurphy · 02-03-2018 03:46PM

Here's a few from my area where it's still snowing pretty dam hard.

They'll need to call the army in I think. Otherwise we are here for a week.

patneve2 · 02-03-2018 03:46PM

South east dublin defo back in business now. Constant moderate snow a bit wet but starting to accumulate

"'If you can clear snow in Canada, why can't our government get it's act together.'"

Montreal costs $300m per year for snow clearing. There's a reason why its not practical for a Country like Ireland to prepare for a once in 20 year event.
