    Just wondering if someone can point me somewhere that shows where the rain/snow is predicted to fall in the next 24 hours or so. I know it is supposed to start as rain for many but should change at some point, or so I saw somewhere.

    Rain getting heavy in west Cork now and its very cold. There was a thick frost on the Caha mountains today above 250 mtrs roughly probably snow now up high.

    The latest HIRLAM downgrades things a bit. It sends the heavy precip more south, missing the coast and what does arrive doesn't get very far east before dying out. Should still be snow inland from coasts but looking more like the 3-6cm in places instead of the widespread 5-10cm that was forecast earlier.

    Are you near the coast, would have thought sleet at least

    At last a tread with no D word :)
    Very cold here all day but dry too no sign of anything wet


    Any chance of precipitation around Galway through the nite maq? I'd be 15 mile inland from Galway.

    Im so sorry for this davidsr20 but its impossible for there to be any snow in Craughwell because I live there too, and I have a magic super deflector shield that stops snow from ever falling within a 20 mile radius of wherever I happen to be at the time. I dont know how to turn it off. Sorry.

    ~2 degrees and currently dry in Castletroy, Limerick. Mostly overcast, with small breaks in the cloud showing high cirrus cover. Moon poking through every so often but surrounded by a small hazy corona.

    Tiny tiny amount of snow after falling on the car here in Ballydesmond. And by small I mean a square metre of it condensed into a square centimetere would sitll look light.

    At least it's something :D

    ME forecast shows temps down to 0C across the south, even colder further north. Good news if precipitation is heading your way.
