    Not here, there's plenty of cloud overhead, although I'm facing west and can't see out east!

    They've gone and jinxed it now ;)

    More immediately, it's hard to read the activity in the Irish sea. If it'll bring much of anything or not. Some of it seems to have decayed a bit on the latest radar. We'll see as it get closer to land.

    I am thinking that Met Eireann have gone and jinxed it, but tomorrow afternoon may be when the east coast is cold enough for snow to settle. I wouldn't rule a couple more inches of snow in Dublin city by tomorrow night at least.

    Not much happening here(so far) today, there was a thaw, but think it's stopped now. Does not feel as cold as yesterday. It will take a good thaw to get rid of our Snow:)

    Also for the clowns that are flying around in their 4x4s thinking they won't skid, bear in mind they will, when you apply the brakes when trying to avoid a poor kid enjoying the snow.

    Keep having to get the calculator out - still can't visualize cm's, only inches! I blame it on my age and spending 13 years in the US! :D
