Wouldn't surprise me to see it turn in far S Dublin for few hours this evening whilst wind is offshore, will readily turn to rain once the easterly picks up from the 14 degree seas.

Dundrum/Tallaght possibly down to Leop and Donnybrook could get a few flakes depending on precip intensity.

Wind is already onshore. As of 14:00 reports Casement E , Dublin SE

sparrowcar · 13-11-2019 4:05pm

Heavy rain in Dublin airport since 1500.

Cw85 · 13-11-2019 4:06pm

Fairly heavy snow now. Carlow Town

Snow Garden · 13-11-2019 4:07pm

A snow thread and I missed it!!

It is wet and cold in Galway. Fingers crossed for white gold.

yep wind is south-east. Highest temperatures at the moment north Wicklow, Dublin, Meath and Louth. The main area for sleet and snow seems west of the Wicklow mountains away from the coast over Carlow and Kilkenny.

SleetAndSnow · 13-11-2019 4:13pm

2:00 reports show cork airport at 5 degrees, down to 3 at half 2. Waiting to see what the 3 will be

edit: still 3 degrees. 2 degrees of a drop in half an hour though is a lot. Needless the fire is lit and heating is on

pad199207 · 13-11-2019 4:17pm

Cold is cutting through Kildare now. 2c at Monasterevin and 5c at Naas

Mam of 4 · 13-11-2019 4:18pm

It had turned to sleet/rain in Portlaoise , but is now back to big snow flakes .

pad199207 · 13-11-2019 4:28pm

Athy Co Kildare

cherryghost · 13-11-2019 4:28pm

DP has stalled after some rain in Clondalkin. Still at 0.4, guess thats onshore wind for you!

Edit: Spoke too soon, it just suddenly dropped 0.6 and it's getting dark real quick

It will /may (havent analysed too closely) go west or variable for a few hours this evening and that'll be the small window for shleeet.

pauldry · 13-11-2019 4:34pm

Great to see a pic of snow. It makes the thread worth it.

What makes you think it might tho?

Duane Dibbley · 13-11-2019 4:43pm

Heavy Rain in Naas at the moment

Kermit.de.frog · 13-11-2019 4:44pm

Heavy rain and hail, North Dublin.

Naggdefy · 13-11-2019 4:46pm

No pics. Children let home from local national school at 2pm with snow. Driving difficult. -0.5C South East Laois 325m asl.

uck51js9zml2yt · 13-11-2019 4:47pm

Sleet in killorglin, rain in Killarney. Snow outside my window

Artane2002 · 13-11-2019 4:47pm

Inconsistent rainfall rates here in Dublin 5, sometimes it turns very heavy and a few seconds later it nearly stops before intensifying again and so on.

TTLF · 13-11-2019 4:50pm

SUPER dark, D14.

Feels like dusk during summer

average_runner · 13-11-2019 4:51pm

Is this down for the night in Dublin City ? Will it get heavier? Have a race at 8pm

Suppose to ease off about 8 but i would make sure you could get very wet and cold before the Run in the Dark.

DOCARCH · 13-11-2019 4:56pm

Can't link individual traffic cameras, but can see on https://www.tiitraffic.ie/cams/ snow starting to settle to sides/verges of M9 in Carlow.

Meanwhile heavy rain now in Dublin 16. 5.5c atm.

Stevieluvsye · 13-11-2019 5:06pm

Absolutely hosing it down. Roughly 1 mile from Casement

Gonzo · 13-11-2019 5:09pm

pouring rain here at Dunshaughlin, I doubt we will see any snow, SE wind keeping temperatures up too much. Looking at the netweather radar, there is very little snow anywhere apart from parts of the Wicklow Mountains.

sicknotexi · 13-11-2019 5:11pm

Wet snow in Monasterevin for last hour. At one stage was milling down and sticking. Easing off now.

Kermit.de.frog · 13-11-2019 5:11pm

M9 @ Carlow.

Mortelaro · 13-11-2019 5:12pm

5.2c in Arklow
Dp is 3c
Wind is NE off the sea
Rain rate currently 2.6mm/hr
Total 5.4mm

Unlikely to see even sleet here with that wind direction
It is trending slightly veering north north east
10 to 16kmh
Plenty of marine layer air yet

You are on the wrong side of the Rockies Wicklow Mountains

Danno · 13-11-2019 5:14pm

Just drove the M7 from Portlaoise to Tallaght. Snowing in Portlaoise with sticking on the grass around J16. Sleet up to J13 then rain the rest of the way. Temperatures rose from 1c at Portlaoise to 3c at J14 to 6c at J3 and back to 5c in Tallaght (Car thermometer) 3pm to 4pm roughly

WhestCork2018 · 13-11-2019 5:19pm

Just cold and damp up at Cork Airport....

pad199207 · 13-11-2019 5:21pm

Turning very quickly to heavy sleet in Naas with a very fast temp drop to 3c

Mortelaro · 13-11-2019 5:22pm

Change in wind direction at Arklow
West at 21kmh
1 degree temp drop and falling....

John.Icy · 13-11-2019 5:23pm

Back home near Athy had full snow coverage an hour ago already. Not sure what's happening there now.

Slashermcguirk · 13-11-2019 5:23pm

Good to see Ireland getting its first snow in the 1st half of November. Still very early in the season and hopefully a sign of things to come

Supercell · 13-11-2019 5:23pm

Awesome stuff, very jealous of those in the snowy spots, its utterly bucketing down rain here, got drowned collecting the kids from school. Warm and snug with the woodstove lit though now

Captain Snow · 13-11-2019 5:24pm

Sally's Gap is becoming a no go.

scottigael · 13-11-2019 5:24pm

Heavy snow in Portlaoise, sticking in parts.

Gonzo · 13-11-2019 5:24pm

I wasn't expecting rain to be so heavy here, but it's easing now.
