    Getting close to cork now!

    The showers are moving slightly NE and east then SE sadly so we won't be getting that big shower I don't think, looking at the way they are moving on netweather anyway.

    Heavy ( proper) snow now, Limerick city, went from rain, to sleet, to wet snow, to flaky soft perfect snow in the space of 10 minutes. Starting to stick now, despite how wet everything was beforehand.

    Yeah didn’t expect anything until the showers later this evening anyway. As rebel showed colder uppers not far enough south yet.

    Nice build up of snow here in Kilkenny on the hills, people getting stuck in their cars and it’s snowing heavily.

    You must live quite high up? The snowline where I am is at 200 metres. But then Letterkenny is on a hill isn’t it?

    This cold shot has been weaker than I expected in that the temps hovered about 1.5c all night..it was almost as if the airmass had a “set” temperature for each elevation.

    Letterkenny is built on two sides of a valley, lower parts of the town are pretty much at sea level, higher parts around 200m. I'm at around 90m I think.

    Snow mostly melted again now though some nice heavy hail squalls keeping the place white

    Just on a imby basis for those of us down south, temps and dew points should drop a good bit by late afternoon and we should be good for snow (wet at least) from then on. A few models seem to have decent precipitation around Cork at ca. 3/4pm. Outside chance that might fall as white gold....
