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)

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!

patneve2 · 02-03-2018 08:30PM

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

Storm 10 · 02-03-2018 08:31PM

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

Gonzo · 02-03-2018 08:31PM

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

d'Oracle · 02-03-2018 08:31PM

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.

nacho libre · 02-03-2018 08:31PM

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

Unsurprisingly, no Rosslare intercity services will operate tomorrow:

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

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

SleetAndSnow · 02-03-2018 08:35PM

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)

q85dw7osi4lebg · 02-03-2018 08:35PM

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

Slashermcguirk · 02-03-2018 08:37PM

Still coming down in dublin 5. After a very quiet morning, this afternoon / evening is really delivering

Gerry still going. Poor man needs a break.

Surely he'll do The Late Late too when he come this far :pac:

Its been snowing all day in Shankill, south county Dublin. Just constant. It’s stull building up. I don’t see it going anywhere tomorrow.

We had a power cut over night but in fairness to esb they had it back on by 11.30 this morning. Not pleasant though! Really hoping it won’t go again with all the snow that’s still falling.

I did get out for a walk this morning and I agree that’s there’s a lovely community feeling. Everyone smiling and chatting to each other and helping each other out. It’s fabulous!

JanuarySnowstor · 02-03-2018 08:38PM

Confirming more snow falling in Cork.
Looks like tomorrow will be another car less day

Sure hardly worth it going home now.

LEIN · 02-03-2018 08:39PM

Snow has gone light here.

I had a full on 24 hours of moderate to heavy snow.

I may not see an event like this again.....

It was a woman,saw it on the news,she jumped in for a swim and started to get dragged out to sea. Somebody on the shore threw her a lifebouy.
Dopy bitch. As if the emergency services hadn't enough on their plate,you have clowns like her putting themselves in harm's way.

Why are you even talking about her, that's all she wanted from the beginning!?

She probably thinks you fancy her now because you called her a clown.
Awwwww blessss

Where? I'm in South Drogheda and it's coming down but not overly heavy

weatherfiend · 02-03-2018 08:40PM

Unbelievable accumulations this afternoon in Sandyford. Can now barely open the back door to let the dogs out

nacho libre · 02-03-2018 08:41PM

A severe frost on Sunday night looks likely. Take heed for Monday, if driving, conditions could be treacherous. This is unlikely be a rapid thaw, even taking the stronger day time sun into consideration.

Met Eireann have been extending the time of the snow to rain/sleet all day on the south coast. It was this morning initially, then this evening and now tomorrow morning. MT has been spot on all along about how difficult this cold air is to shift.

The poor man will really need a holiday after this. He did look wrecked on six one news.
