As suggested in other thread, starting new thread, to continue discussion, and reduce the issue of 'Vanilla Tremble' (…another great new Boards feature!!!).
After event, will merge threads.
If it can snow in Cork city, it might just be a day for miracles!
Just back from tesco maynooth. Barely a slice pan left on the shelf. Currently 4 degrees and raining.
People need to cop the **** on.
Pelting snow in Cork city right now 1.52pm
Never craved high pressure and dry weather as much as right now
Eased off a bit here for now but a lovely covering to look at.
Whitechurch, Co. Cork - snowing properly now for the past 10mins. Which means the snow line has moved south from North Cork / Mallow.
3 foot drift and 5 inches at back of house. North Kerry
drove home to cork city, started snowing from just past Clonakilry onwards! Fields and roads are saturated, flooded and generally water flowing everywhere, dangerous journey
hopefully it can start to stick soon but so much water on the roads doesn’t give me much hope
The wind is caused by the low pressure. It wants to travel anticlockwise around the centre which is roughly off our South East coast and moving eastwards hence the winds from the North East and North. It has a front sitting across it where the precipitation is. As it moves over England it will drag the front with it and the precipitation.
You’d think JanuarySnowStor would have mentioned the risk of snow in Cork….
Very much still rain here east of Midleton
Continuous wet snow in the city centre.
okay then.
Nothing but pelting rain in West Cork 😩
no sign on the radar that front is budging, heaviest snow of the day falling now
Fingers crossed it's on the way to Tinahely haha
Odd bits of slush mixed in with the rain now in greystones based on what's hitting the velux
Yes once you have the right parameters for snow. Been snowing near Mallow for about 3 hours now.

Snowing here near Summerhill for the last hour..not sticking tho..
Turned to wet snow from rain in the last hour west Co Wexford. About 70m AMSL. Starting to stick on car and grass.
Non stop rain here, Cork
I have a necessary journey today or id stay home by the fire. This part of limerick bypass is pretty bad but closer to city it turns rain. If u do venture out please dont tailgate me.
Impressive!!! Extreme rare conditions. Might never see it again.
Can't be over 150 cm, surely!
Did you mean 150 mm?
Snow is still a bit too wet here and not sticking on the ground at all
Airport SNOWTAMs.
Kerry (12:32)

Yes, mixed, but will get heavier. Snow line is +/- 100m.
And I am absolutely done with this icy rain in Dun Laoghaire.
