    Guys im no expert but there is a major thaw on here in Monasterevin atm.
    Im finding it hard to grasp this cold front thats heading our way and predicted snow in the afternoon.
    Can it change from a thaw to sub freezing that quick?

    Yes it can. The air that is moving in is from Siberia and will push the warmer air out of the way.

    The change in temp and wind chill can be quite dramatic.

    clouding over in north cork a little. maybe just maybe - seems to be a lot of showers to the east but heading south west as opposed to just west!

    with so many posters reporting a thaw at the moment my fear is that the ground will get so slushy sloppy and wet that what ever snow comes in with the cold front later wont stick

    All your posts are very ... Negative.

    Have you not seen all the snow we've had already... In November!

    Chin up, no need to fear, more snow is coming. It'll prolly stick.

    Snow has calmed itself down a lot in Galway now. Would have got a few pics but the phone isn't good enough. Amazing snow 20 mins ago, gigantic flakes!
