    Here comes the big stuff from the south, its starting to move north west now...http://www.metoffice.gov.uk/weather/uk/radar/

    That band has been sitting there all day, the SW of England have a dodgy radar that is like shannons radar. If you notice that radar has only just come to life the last update, thats why that band is showing up now.

    I've a feeling now the event tomorrow will turn out to be a damp squib as 'compensation'. Maybe literally for some of us.

    i think it will be for those of us futher west and north- well the precipitation was always going to be lighter in these regions, but going on that bbc forecast the snowfall tomorrow is going to be light everywhere bar high ground. so it definitely seems that yet again the unexpected very heavy snowfall tonight in the east will deliver more accumulations than tomorrows snow will. still for those in the east who don't want anymore lieing snow that'll be welcome news i guess


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 569 ✭✭✭texas star


    Is it to snow all nite?Please say yes?:D


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 45 oldmillgal

    Well you shouldn't have, it's not the Howth Road either ;) It's the Clontarf Road.

    Got tired checking out the window until 10:30.

    All evening a great gaping hole of nighjt sky overhead while all of North Dublin City was getting covered.

    Then a mocking coverlet of clouds with the teeniest wisp of snow.

    An hour later and the world has changed utterly...

    Big flakes for goodness knows how long.

    Now back to wisps but the carpet is laid.

    As bad as last Wednesday - more to come.

    ONQ.

    Well what a night :D:D

    Got really blizzardy around 11.

    We have 8cm of snow on the ground with bigger drifts in places.

    More than i could of hoped for, just hope it doesnt thaw.

    Bloody brilliant. :D

    Not a city...Valentia has 3-4 sleet/snow days on average very year

    Cavan holds the record for most snow days

    Competition between Cork and Waterford. My money's on Cork as Waterford is in more of a position to gain from extreme events from easterlies. E.g. 78/79, 82, etc.

    Also, can anyone explain to me, in layman's terms, what's unexpectedly happened tonight to bring all this snow to Dublin?
