    That shower has cleared (Dublin 16) now. Has left all surfaces white, with the exception of roads (which are just slushy). 0.9c now.

    Missed out on that one by a matter of 1 or 2 km's. Bit of a goldilocks zone for showers tracking west just south of the M6/M4 corridor atm. Some pretty heavy snow showers heading in to the south midlands.

    Potentially quite well later on. More likely closer to the coast later on tonight. Best place to be is a few miles inland places like Shannon, Limerick, Castlebar, Guam etc.

    Hills of north Kilkenny have been white since the heavy snow during the afternoon.
    Currently there is ice and snow, temperature is 0.0C, DP is -0.3C. More snow on the way according to the radar.

    Even have snow near the coast here in Newport. A nice big blue flash and a long rumble of thunder just there too.
    It makes a change from the storms at least.

    That last bang was something else, not even a second between the flash and the rumble.

    Disappointing snow pellets here in west clare.

    They are cool to watch though, they gracefully turn to hard snow upon hitting the window.

    It was snowing today in Carlow, of course typical of our weather when the heavy snow comes down the ground is wet and it won't stick!

    I love the snow.

    Turned to hail now, but its sticking so I don't care.

    Edit: I tried to upload a pic but it's just saying invalid file, on mobile so I'll try the app instead of touch site.

    wow. That lightning bolt and hailstorm that just went by Castlebar was immense. Was driving into town and the fork lightning and subsequent bang nearly ejected me through the roof of the car. Haha thought an atomic bomb went off..

    Probably only in the high ground areas.

    I live just outside Carlow Town and nothing, it's cold but wet.

    I'm sure showers (or the remnants of showers) will make it through overnight.

    There should be a decent enough snow shower within the hour i'd imagine.

    Here is a link to radar if anyone is interested. Updates every 20 minutes.
