It was still a very mild day today, with 12.5 °C at Valentia and Sherkin Island, and even 11.0 °C at Malin Head!

Please dont snow, please dont snow.

Set it up somewhere other than the weather forum, add the words 'No Snow' and it'll get post of the day!

Below was taken around Christmas Eve last year. Yes, Clare (and Waterford/South Tipp/Cork coastline) seem to be the only places that show green. Awful if you were a snowlover in those places :mad:

Should add that one into the album. Got married in that last year.

Temp Rises as moist air from cloud flys overhead thats why you have a large fluctuation in temp.

The temperature's been like a yo-yo here tonight, up and down every time a shower passes which is every 15 minutes or so. Hasn't dropped below 2.7C though so the best we've managed is some sleety snow & graupel. Hail has been impressive again but becoming a bit tiresome at this stage, don't think there's been a single day in the past two weeks where we haven't had hail!

It snowed here in north monaghan around 1. Then i woke up at 6 and it had been rainin, now the ground is covered again in snow. It shows how marginal the snow was for lower levels.

Conrach · 09-12-2011 9:05am

Just started to snow 5 mintes ago. A heavy shower which is lying on the icy ground.

kingshankly · 09-12-2011 9:13am

snowing here in south Armagh this half hour or so and starting to stick

Noopti · 09-12-2011 9:36am

I remember last year sitting where I am now, looking out the office window at the streamers hitting Dublin. Ah memories.

Hopefully we get some of the white stuff soon...

Caitriona · 09-12-2011 10:04am

Ah, streamers. Good times! I don't think I got any work done for weeks.

Just had a flurry of white cotton wool here, lovely fluffy stuff, but it stopped very quickly. Still, hopefully if anything else comes this way today it'll be the same!

sq_forever · 09-12-2011 10:28am

Perfect snow showers here in west Cavan. Starting to accumulate. About time too!

Sulmac · 09-12-2011 11:17am

Snow starting to accumulate just outside Omagh!

redsteveireland · 09-12-2011 11:35am

Car frozen for the first morning this winter.

A little bit of drizzle blowing around in the wind, and low blinding sun make for interesting driving conditions.

Even if conditions were right down here, the showers are not strong enough to even make it this far, fizzling out as they pass Galway city.
