    There is something lashing off the roof windows , if this was going to last more than 12 hours I'd get up out of my nest to check it out

    I'm assuming its snow as my dp is -1 and 1.5 wind is blowing a gale too

    probably what just passed over here. It was lightly crackling off the window too in the wind gusts. Stopped now and the patchs of white on the road are disappearing quickly. Needs to be sustained in order to get a covering.

    Sustained hail in N Donegal, winds gusting and hopefully the temperature will drop enough to make life interesting. Only two Lightning and thunder events all evening :(.

    I think the east and midlands could do better out of this than the west and I'm in Castlebar...Frig all happening here so far, showers are just of hail with the odd flake of snow..and showers are short in duration. Will see what happens later.

    Actual blizzard here now in D24, 105m asl.

    Still a wee bit sleety though I think - its sticking, but not as much as I'd expect for such a heavy fall.
