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!

Heavier now in East Meath than it was at any time last night! An inch in the last 30 mins!

SleetAndSnow

at least 2 cm after falling here in cork city already again on my cars at least. Bits of the path outside our house we shovelled away is slowly turning back to white aswell (that was very wet though)

Sheets of that fine powder snow stuff still coming down in Dublin 16. -0.8c atm.

There has been no let up at all in Sandymount. It is much worse than yesterday.

Unsurprisingly, no Rosslare intercity services will operate tomorrow:

What is the snowfall depth at Casement now? It's a pity Met Eireann don't have more official stations.

I think I have like two feet in the back garden.
I know we dont even close to have the worst of it, but there is a serious amount of snow around.

Gonna do a bit of shovelling before dinner.

the precipitation definitely seems to be dying back to the coast now, perhaps it will drift out to sea sooner than we expect?

Storm 10

Just watched the forecast on tv and the radar image they showed as the latest is completely at odds with the radar on their website anyone see this

patneve2

moderate snow with tiny flakes. Been relentless for over 5 hours now. If the temp had been 1 degree lower this band would have dumped 20cm. Serious snowfall rates. Id say 10-12cm of wettish snow since 3. S dublin coast

D11 here, been snowing all day. I cleared paths front and back earlier and it’s completely filled in since. Drifts in the paths are up to top of garden walls and bins! Awesome!

How much is South Dublin expecting tonight?

I heard about another 10-20cm?!

HIRLAM suggests 10-20mm of liquid overnight.

That would translate to maybe 10-15cm in the North County up to 20-30cm in the south. Less if you are right by the coast, within a km or two. (that's total accumulation since 12 midday today)

The local bar is having a Christmas party. Bishopstown, Cork

Finally stopped after 24hrs of powdery snowfall near Rathdrum, about 2ft deep at the moment, most fell overnight. I'm not sure I want to see any more snowfall though.

Stopped here now in West Limerick for about 2 hours. Looks like that could be it, unless we get another belt of it overnight.
( still prob spend the next few hours peeping out the back door though, just in case like)

Stopped here in Waterford, I think that could very well be the end of it.

It has been gradually thawing for the last couple of hours.

Back to reality in the morning, I guess?

What's the betting that many of those dying for a 'snow event' will be complaining tomorrow if their estate roads aren't snow ploughed by the council etc

Serious head high drifts on our roads, stiff enough and if it freezes will set like 'concrete'. Never seen a snow plough here in previous snows, so think it could be well into next week before any sort of motor transport is possible.

Ah well, could be worse, at least we have electricity & water!

The Rape of Lucretia

George Lee reckons the snow falling in Wicklow now is the wrong type of snow.

Just back in the house after being out since noon in Greystones. Hasn't stopped snowing the entire time. Sledding down the hills in the golf courses. I've lost count of the number of snowmen built and the number of igloos around. Great day, hope it's not another 35 years til the next one now!

Here I am Dublin 5 and it was a none event for me last night. Since 1pm today we've seen a few inches of real snow and it's still falling.

Happy days

snow is stopping here again, It looks from the radar that the snow is edging back to the coastline, shifting eastwards.

Easily another 3 to 4 inches fell here since snow resumed around 4pm.

Same up my way, cleared the paths earlier but it was a pointless exercise

Artane2002

Very strong gusts with heavy (small) snow creating near zero visibility in Dublin 5. Very nice accumulations.

Have to say - the local pub is leaping. Everyone in the estate is out on the street and chatting away, when normally you might only wave if you're leaving for/coming home from work at the same time. People are having fun throwing snowballs at the neighbours, or helping each other build igloos.

The snow is great for a bit of community spirit.

I actually think one of the upsides of an event like this is coming face to face with nature and then, as a result, being forced to go back to basics. We had to bake some biscuits today because we needed something sugary to eat. Kids playing in the snow rather than looking at iphones; communities coming together to help each other out etc.

Snowing again in Bishopstown, Cork after a break this afternoon. Went out for a walk in it and there was no thaw at all here.

Snow is not as powdery as yesterday but it is still beautiful. Not many cars out on the roads and an eerie, beautiful silence.
