I know how you feel. The whole lot crossed over me and basically nothing fell. Maybe 5mm.
But does it look like something is forming off the coast on the sat24 images, or is it just me

which probably will give the city nothing. i know the drill

irish1967 · 03-12-2010 9:14am

3-4 inches of fresh fluffy stuff here..

Derfil · 03-12-2010 9:14am

According to www.raintoday.co.uk showers are popping up in Louth/Meath/north Dublin. Anyone any reports from there?

strange weather

dave1982 · 03-12-2010 9:16am

96 fm are reporting snow in north Cork ?

oicherider · 03-12-2010 9:17am

And the results from North Mayo..

1-2 inchs of snow overnight, turning sleety now tho

Went out to get turf from back of house and thought the wife was throwing snow balls at me from upstairs velux window.. It was the snow on the window thawing and slipping off the roof

Particularly funny cause I thougt she had lost it opening the window with a 1 month old baby in the room!! :rolleyes:

Dr Galen · 03-12-2010 9:17am

No overnight snow in Donabate. Very very cold though, definitely a freeze of what fell yesterday. Conditions are treacherous, so bad we even had a line on AA Roadwatch!!!

Can confirm that it got down to -7.7c in Waterford City at 07.40. Thats a record low temp for here Surely we can only get snow when the front arrives.

More Detail @ www.waterfordcityweather.com

Yeah noticed that too! Thanks for all the info on the site Mick. It has been great having a look at what is like in town as well. I have been on refresh for the last week now. I am hoping to get a Davis in the near future.

It Doesn't look too positive for much snow in the south east... The band of presip seems to be breaking uP before it reaches this side

this front coming across looks very narrow to me. i assume the front is going to stall. otherwise it will be a small affair!

ninebeanrows · 03-12-2010 9:22am

If this doesn't break up, Dublin could be in for a plastering, probably only last 2-3 hours though.

outsourced_ire · 03-12-2010 9:22am

Still thinking about it in Cork - am out by CIT.

irishharper · 03-12-2010 9:23am

Loads of snow after falling here in limerick, the sky looks like there's a lot more snow yet to fall!

Dr Galen · 03-12-2010 9:23am

even 2-3 hours would be enough to cause chaos. Its already pretty mental out there really.

On a positive note, it would also bring more snow, and more snow = moar iglooz

daisling · 03-12-2010 9:24am

morning, getting to sleep in wth no schools open. No (or very little) snow in west wicklow overnight but its all frozen and chrunchy out there sun just rising over mountains amazing colours in clear sky.

2 or 3 hours of that my be better than the intermittent streamers we got from the east with the IOM in mind...

Supercell · 03-12-2010 9:25am

Its not going to be like the streamer last night but given the mental amount of snow already maybe thats just as well! I wonder will thee be flooding problems as this melts.

MilanPan!c · 03-12-2010 9:25am

Not a small affair!

John2009 · 03-12-2010 9:26am

Elmer Blooker · 03-12-2010 9:31am

Claremorris only 0c, that's behind the front isn't it?
Belmullet was 4c when I was going to bed and it's still 4c so looking good for us in the east.
Everywhere turning an incredible pink here as the sun rises.
A red sky in the morning is a ............

Ricky91t · 03-12-2010 9:32am
