Weds 13th / Thurs 14th Nov 2019: Rainfall warning with Snow and spot flood risk

Kermit.de.frog

Been pondering whether or not it's worth a dedicated thread. I think it might be although a little bit of evolution to go yet.

Snow may reach low levels through Wednesday afternoon and evening leading to minor accumulations particularly inland. Typically a cm or two can be expected. Dublin is also at risk temporarily on Wednesday evening due to an off shore wind (though likely to be the sleet/very wet snow variety).

Snowfall could lead to commuter disruption. Accumulations should be temporary in most places.

Some more significant temporary snowfall is possible in both the mid west and southwest through Wednesday night as the occlusion slips away south. And, of course, high ground is to be avoided.

There is also a risk of spot flooding from heavy rain due to the pivoting front.

Raw. Temperatures between 0 and 4c generally on your way home (colder as afternoon progresses).

YOU DID WHAT! lol..

Woke here a while ago to a bitter northerly screaming its intention to blow the house down... NAH! But it may postpone the ferry..

So much depends on the direction; as an old lady up north used to say ,the "airt" of the wind. Up there easterly was the bad one. Here it is northeasterly, due today

Bitter cold. When I opened the door all five cats streamed in like a furry tide... Before even putting water on to heat I opened 2 tins of catfood…

We are helpless to stop the weather.... Banshee howling now ….. shivers!

Out in Greystones. The wind howling a fair bit and a bit of rain. I thought it was sleet for a moment because it was being swirling around in the winds. Many layers of clothes needed with that mix of wind and rain.

Just want to give a shout out to Kermit for the thread.
He puts a fair bit of excitement into this boards and never too far off the mark ; )

Nice this morning in cork city which is something. No frost around because it was raining during the night. Cold out there though.

A bit of slush on the bottom of the car windscreens this morning is all I have seen near Roundwood. It was still too dark when I left to see the mountains.

OK that is IT! I am hibernating!

Just fought a dramatic incoming storm to get my shopping and coal in from the drive. Watching the sheer … power of the battling clouds in the distance, rainbows , sheeting rain as I took boxes in... JUST got the last one in before the real tempest hit. I kept looking towards it to see if I was going to beat it

And now; hard hard rain and hail on the roof and sudden gusts.

Life is never ever dull out here. That was a magnificent display!

But another week of this ….OH MY !

Indeed! Last Saturday morning was tough enough with pretty strong winds on top and wind chill estimated at -9c!

Kippure looks much the same as posted above ^ today, I was up around three rock/fairycastle early on. Lots of icy stretches but nothing else of note.

Still a bit on the tops of the comeraghs, the wind def felt like it was coming off those mountains today, bitterly cold.

Mod Note: Please keep pictures to an acceptable size . If you are using pics from phones remember that these can be very large, eg 4160 by 3120 and too large for the forum, a typical weather chart from Meteociel would be 768 by 768 and the excellent shot by sppokwoman above is 500 by 333.

It is important to resize pics before posting them , this can be done on sites like Imgur.

Thanks

Well Lug has plenty of snow this morning, over 2 feet of snow in parts on the Western approach to the summit.
