We've seen remarkably little by way of snow in Swords, Nth. County Dublin over the last couple of days. Around a centimeter in total. It was the same last winter. We seem to miss out on the beefy showers compared to other locations in Dublin. Don't know if it's our closeness to the coast, or that we are in the shadow of the Isle of Man. :-(

Well it completely missed Rathfarnham/Dundrum. Seems like it was a very narrow band of showers.

I may need to recalibrate my measuring stick :-) I'm near enough to Applewood. I'm going by the amount sitting on top of the garden walls and cars. Certainly it was no where near 2 inches here. I suppose showers can be very local.

The last properly deep snow I can remember for Swords was back in 2001.

nothing here for past 26 hours, but it is very cold indeed. Dublin is currently -8 and it's only 10.30pm, I think -10C will be well smashed before the night is over.
