    no one is interested in the 120+ thread for obvious reasons so I might as well put this here ....

    I hope the ECM does not follow this! This would be very disappointing, but it's feasible.

    I'm hoping tonight's front corrects a little bit further north to give snow in South Wexford. Apart from a nice period in the afternoon today, it's been grey since yesterday with some spells of light rain and drizzle, which isn't what you'd expect with a northerly.

    Christ Almighty England gets most of the snow on this run. We still get some but not near as good as the last run. I wonder are we going to see further adjustment yet. Munster could be seeing snow on Thursday yet!

    The front is not as active on tonight's ECM unfortunately but it's at odds with previous runs so could be an outlier in that regard. Still brings snow to most during Thursday or Thursday night but not the amounts previously.

    How is southern UK doing better than us ugh



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,616 ✭✭✭✭nacho libre


    The irony is the Greenland High is a bit more robust and reluctant to move so there is a bit more forcing on the low. I suppose it may help to extend the cold if it pans out like this run, also we may get another opportunity from the next system. Snow fans in the North will be crushed by this run - from some thing like 20 to 30 cm to 1-2 cm in one run!

    Absolutely gorgeous orange full moon rising now.

    What are they doing in the Hyacinth House?

    JMA also less progressive with the mild push meaning more widespread snow.

    Latest HARMONIE doesn't follow that ECMWF drop South, this is some mess and will be a nowcast.

    I can’t cope with this rollercoaster !🙈❄️🥶☃️🫣 one minute we’re getting plastered in the NW the next minute zilch. Exciting all the same!



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,432 ✭✭✭Cork2021


    So it’s a wait and see and hope for the best/worse! Irish weather in one sentence

    Somewhere around there perhaps and as Kermit said, backend looks like possibly being the main event.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,705 ✭✭✭Billcarson


    Could end up being a case of all or nothing formany. Considering the time of Yr I Consider it a free hit. Will be delighted if I get a good snow fall but not too disappointed if I don't.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,393 ✭✭✭JanuarySnowstor


    Very interesting tonight for the South. I was hesitant to call snow because I thought the wind was southeast but its actually slightly Northeast. History tells me Cork City is too coastal for tonight with uppers not quite cold enough. Happy to be proved wrong, but sweet spot looks like Mallow / Mitchelstown area. We should know before midnight what's falling



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,432 ✭✭✭Cork2021


    That’ll do, living in the kanturk area around 400ft above sea level

    Precipitation mightnt go as far north as Mithchelstown. We did very well down to the coast, inc the City, out of an LP that stalled from the south in Jan 2010. Hoping for something similar tonight / tomorrow morning



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,393 ✭✭✭JanuarySnowstor


    No cold in situ this time. 2010 was extreme with cold built in. The ecm is encouraging seems to give us snow along the coast. I can't call it really my heart says snow, my experience says no



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 107 ✭✭AnFearCeart


    If the winds keep north of east then Cork City should get some snowfall, especially the suburbs on the northern and western side.

    Presently east in Cork Apt, however Fermoy is northeast which helps pull colder air in from the midlands into the mix.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,393 ✭✭✭JanuarySnowstor


    It could be that heavier ppn could swing it in our favour. The heaviest stuff will be on the coast. Impossible to call but very interesting!!



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,457 ✭✭✭pauldry


    Feel we'll fluke a miss in Sligo just as its about to hit it will be gone. Donegal is seeing nothing from this and Sligo coast too just prob a dusting. Midlands buried.



  • Moderators, Science, Health & Environment Moderators Posts: 17,418 Mod ✭✭✭✭Gonzo


    A huge change from this morning, however things could easily swing back by the morning or they could push further south again and most of the country remains dry, anything can happen.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,457 ✭✭✭pauldry


    Also looking at charts there is a mild sector between the deep cold to the North and Cold to the South so could be mixing. Met Eireann predicts sleet for us so that may also happen but I feel it will spread in off the West coast and then slide Southeast leaving the Northwest dry and cloudy.

    I won't be shocked if there is another correction southwards by the morning. That would be a real sickner, if we do just end up dry after all the promising charts . I am going to pack it in if that happens - well at least until the next snowy run shows up:)
