    My friend in London has informed me its snowing there. If the snow is that far south surely there is some hope for Southern Ireland folks like me?

    Made a big sloppy sleet shower here earlier. I'd say snow/rain ratio was roughly 2/8 at best.

    Snowing in Manchester. Have a dusting on the car & now there's some light-moderate graupel.

    Just off topic a little, does anyone know the website where you get a map of Ireland & UK and it has live temperatures and dew points? I used it the last 2 winters and have lost the link! Thanks :)

    Before anyone asks:
    Graupel (also called soft hail or snow pellets; METAR code: GS)[1] refers to precipitation that forms when supercooled droplets of water are collected and freeze on a falling snowflake, forming a 2–5 mm ball of rime. The term graupel is the German word for this meteorological phenomenon.[2] Graupel is sometimes referred to as small hail, although the World Meteorological Organization defines small hail as snow pellets encapsulated by ice, a precipitation halfway between graupel and hail.[3]

    Snowing in Castlewarren County Kilkenny according to my cousin.
    It is rather hilly out that direction.

    Actually, can anyone tell me where I can find out where is the highest point in Kilkenny?

    Any precipitation will fizzle out before it reaches the Dublin border. The big blue blob over Meath just disappeared :( Ah well, hopefully some tomorrow

    The user has been warned. Pictures are a great bonus but this is a REPORTS thread so they are definitely not essential.

    YEAH I got an infraction for asking a civil question
    and as i pointed out the the mod the camera does not lie whereas some people do here.

    and i have suggested photos twice already no offence btw.

    So would a pic not be a better verification and add that much more to the thread as some have already?

    As i've said to you already, not everyone has a camera to hand and even if they do they may not feel like going to the effort of taking pictures and uploading them here. The reports which are posted here are very valuable in marginal situations like these to see what type of precipitation is falling and where it's falling. Users are not required to provide photographic evidence to back up their reports. If people feel like wasting their time making up false reports they are usually very easily identified.

    I'd say most people do, but that's not very relevant. They may not feel like taking and uploading pictures and are certainly not required to do so. Most pictures taken at the moment especially in places where it's snowing and not sticking would only yield blackness and no sign of anything anyway.

    Back on topic now please as this thread is for reports and not discussion.
