    All prospects of a cold snowy Christmas are dashed. Same every year.

    There is no doubt things have taken a backward step when it comes to cold prospects and the latest glosea update was poor to say the least. Hopefully the prospect for cold can improve again,just have to wait and see.

    Might be 14c in Dublin tomorrow, some of us are delighted it's not as cold any more!

    Fax charts are horrendous unless you like mild windy and wet.

    Have a weather station?, why not join the Ireland Weather Network - http://irelandweather.eu/

    lets face it there will be no snow this winter. Most likely it will be a constant stream of weather systems from the atlantic right up until March, THEN we'll get the cold weather in March and April with potential for snow. Spring is our winter.

    A clear day here in wexford, probably the last for a while.

    I'm hearing that there could be a nasty storm on Tuesday. And one that could sweep the whole country, not just the western seaboard.

    very true, I'm fairly sure lying snow has occurred in March more often than any other month in Dublin. March 2013/2016/2018/2019/2020 all had lying snow in Dublin. I don't know how reliable March is for snow in Wexford though. I've talked about this so many times so people are probably fed up of my posts about March snowfall at this stage :p !

    On another note, today was a stunning day in Dublin 5.

    The models are still trying to bring in cold weather for Christmas Eve and Christmas Day but it’s like every second run and the opposite runs are westerly crap. It’s certainly not over but it’s not set in stone either way

    Tidal flooding for Cork looks very likely Wednesday morning!!

    Very high spring tide - >
    A deep low in situ - >
    Preceding Easterly gale - >
    Saturated ground - >
    Heavy rain on the day and days before - >

    An advance warning is more than justified!

    Specific Christmas Day weather chances in my opinion - 80% wet windy and mild. 10% dry and colder 10% wintry. I'm getting more and more bullish on mild, but still time for change. Might be a colder new years eve though.

    Windy, mild, wet morning. Rain hammering on the roof pretty much all night. Plus side is it's no longer freezing inside the house.

    Dried up here in Cork City, just a bit windy now and dark rolling clouds. About 12 degrees so mild enough.

    Just got a text from Cork City Council advising of a period of high astronomical tides on Monday, Tuesday but on Wednesday they are predicating a storm surge which will flood "the wider city centre".

    Extremely mild in Limerick at 13c.

    Some less reputable British tabloids predicting plenty of snow on the ground for the last ten days of December.

    Dark wet gloomy evening. Had a chuckle at some of the posts during the week bemoaning the brightness of our summers. Irish summers are barely tolerable for their awfulness our winters bring that up another notch altogether.

    a nice day today after a very wet night and morning. Side roads around Dunshaughlin are partially flooded.

    The next week to 10 days looks very unsettled and generally mild, up to 100mm of rain is possible in places between now and Christmas particularly along western coastal areas and high ground. There are hints today of a cool down around Christmas and something a lot drier.
