Unless the dewpoint at the M2 buoy drops significantly, any streamers will be of rain I think. Currently it's 2.3 C

I'm talking more about this evening/tonight

any one know why seagulls are so far inland?? seeing a ton of seagulls around the area of the northside of cork city never seen so many this far inland

Maybe because they know there won't be snow in Cork so will be safe for them?

Snowing here in North Tipp since 10 o clock this morning. Good few inches on the ground now and still snowing heavy. We didn't get this much snow last winter.

Where in N Tipp are you, Glimmer?

This snow just seems to have stalled on the waterford coast. Falling moderately all morning. 8-10 cm this morning alone.

I doubt there has been anymore than a centimetre in Waterford..too mild:D:D:D

I am in Nenagh Town. The snow has just stopped but it is still cloudy so hopefully we will get a few more inches before a thaw sets in.

How are the roads in the Nenagh area?

It seems to me that the areas in which it snows least or not at all are 1. Cork. 2. Kerry apart from the mountains). 3.Clare 4. Limerick ( a few snowflakes and itis a blizzard in that place) 5. Waterford (except for this cold period otherwise practically never).:mad::mad::mad::mad::mad:

Rodin · 07-12-2010 01:36PM

Most of Munster - Waterford, and + Tipp.

Wouldnt let me edit!

You were obviously out the day they did the North Atlantic Drift in School?

ffarrell7 · 07-12-2010 01:40PM

snowing again lightly in Dublin 15...The roads will be like glass later on with this mixture of sleet and snow. Apparently te big freeze will return next Tuesday.

NIALL D · 07-12-2010 01:47PM

lookin at rain today that mass hovering around dublin seems to be pushing in the south west direction , ie from around dublin heading twards cork direction , roughly.......

what do people think ??? wind looks to be pushing in a more southerly direction with the last hour or so ?

ffarrell7 · 07-12-2010 01:51PM

Only the finger..there may well be a flurry or two or a bit of sleet in these areas but not enough to even amount to a centimetre.

Not · 07-12-2010 01:55PM

What's it doing in south Dublin at the moment, raining I presume ?

NIALL D · 07-12-2010 01:55PM

big freeze to return next tuesday ? where did u read that ?

It was indeed about 8 to 10cm down here, Temp was a perfect 0.2c Dp -0.4c. Ideal snow conditions, not like the mucky rain up in Dublin.

Absolutely lashing down snow here in Rathdrum, not sure if it can last at this pace TBH.
