    I think we can safely say that all of Lucan is getting snow now.
    Fairly heavy here by Willsbrook Park. :)

    Is this the case? If the rain is coming from the North -West I would have thought that it was the distance from that coast that would be material, 1982 style.

    Thought the same myself. He didn't say snow on the coast either he just said rain in the west and north west and snow in the midlands and east.

    To anyone who may find it useful. The Luas to cherrywood was running normally. Just got home.

    I wouldn't bother with the buses if you have another option. Waited for over an hour for a 45 or 7 and all that went by was one 7, that didnt stop, and 2 out of service buses. The information they are giving out is rubbish. Some of the drivers were saying that they were told to stop, yet 2 mins later I hear yer one from dublin bus on the radio saying that all the buses listed on the website were up and running.

    Pearse st/Trinity was at a standstill cause of a crash and had trapped a bunch of the buses that leave from beside Trinity. Id hope its cleared by now though.

    That idiot coach driver was blocking the road and could go nowhere

    Yeah, you do have a point , I just checked out the fax charts and you have a valid point. Timing though is of big importance, looks like its going to be hitting Dublin around mid afternoon - warmest part of the day.. If it was 6 AM..different ballgame.

    Looking at the latest radar update I'm quietly confident, but after last night I'm taking nothing for granted.
