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!

The Rape of Lucretia

Keelin confirms that the 'East Coast' means Dublin really as far as the NECC is concerned. I knew it. I knew it.

Finally stopped snowing in South Wexford. Landscape reminiscent of scenes from 'Day After Tomorrow'

Snow is starting to form a light dusting on our cars that we cleared of the big snow accumulation today. Ground is very wet though.

I don't understand why people are letting their vehicles and driveways become encased in snow. (I'm in North Kildare too). It is going to be a nightmare to shift compacted, frozen snow. I've shifted it every day even though I have no intention of going anywhere (couldn't if I tried).

Giving it socks for the last hour in Swords!

Paschal hasn't moved from Washington street. He must be staying in jurys.

Having had a look at his twitter feed and some of the pictures he's taking it seems not.

Them snow grains really do accumulate fast!

Very. Very fine powder snow in goatstown (Dublin) at them moment. Hoping it picks up and gets a bit heavier!

My husband drove from our house to Ennistymon which is about two miles max away. He was shaking after the drive. He counted 15 skids.

Don't even think about going out. It's lethal out there.

Light snow here in Dundalk. The leading edge of that precipitation band has finally arrived.

How would they clear the water? is there drainage and water pumps?

Do you think Paschal might give County Cork (and not just the city) a mention on the 6 one news?

He did. You must be delighted!

I wouldn't really mind if it melted now. Id love if our weather was always snowy (not this intense though) but Im so exhausted from always being out in the snow and checking radars and charts and this thread and always looking out windows and being so excited all the time for snow and being stressed from streamers missing your area and hardly sleeping haha

It's been ramping up all afternoon in D9 but it's really kicked off. Getting very stormy outside.

Village in East Clare and we're cut off... Only road is a mountain road which is impassable....
Hasn't stopped snowing since 8am.... Drifting up to 5ft in places, fallen snow is up to the top of my boots now....

Do you honestly care if your county gets mentioned on the news? Is it that important?

Well we have lots of elderly people living in our vicinity whose only access to what is going on is through RTE which they follow faithfully. We’ve had over 1,500 homes without power in my area, accidents, roads impassable, and the heaviest snow for this particular area since 1982. There are tens of thousands of people affected in this area. So far, the national broadcaster hasn’t mentioned any of this and we are watching 5 minute reports from County Louth where significantly less snow seems to have fallen. I don’t think it is unreasonable to raise this query about Paschal’s reports.

Same stuff falling as last night caking everything - trees and electricity lines in ice.
