doesn't look like there was anything more overnight in navan.

Just under 6 inches in Kilkenny. My earlier bleary eyed guess was a bit off. But the drainpipes are dripping like mad.

It obviously kept snowing after I went to bed last night. I'd say yesterday brought about 3 cm or so in Lucan.

Jet Black · 07-12-2010 7:44am

I'd say about 3 inches of snow in Finglas last night,going from whats on my car anyway. Not really that cold either.

Supercell · 07-12-2010 7:53am

Nice fresh covering of wet snow last night, melting now though. Main road looks fine outside.

hotwhiskey · 07-12-2010 8:02am

-12 and 12cm of snow fell yesterday.

Beautiful calm dry crispy frosty morning in galway
yet if I listen to the radio, all I hear is snow and ice and how horrible the weather is

dancingqueen · 07-12-2010 8:20am

More snow in ashbourne

FreudianSlippers · 07-12-2010 8:22am

Dublin CC roads look fine, but back roads look impassable at the moment.

Scubadevils · 07-12-2010 8:29am

Raining in Lusk, all the lovely snow from last night is melting away...

vibe666 · 07-12-2010 8:40am

just driven from navan to clonsilla to drop my wife off to the train and its a bit snowy but otherwise okay. plenty of traffic on the roads already so if you're planning on a snow ay you might be on your own, esp. as i've heard some companies have been making people take snow days as annual leave or even unpaid leave.:eek:

so glad i can work from home when i need to! :cool:

looks like the big thaw is finally on now tho, rain in clonsilla now and the gutters in navan were already dripping at 6:30am.

Power going on and off since 7:25. Whole estate in darkness.
I'm in kilcock.

Noffles · 07-12-2010 8:46am

Gorey still frozen... waiting to hear the drip drip of melting snow, the estate is still frozen solid!

ffarrell7 · 07-12-2010 9:07am

Very heavy snow last night in West Dublin. At least 8 centimetres fell here in Castleknock, Dublin 15.

sunbabe08 · 07-12-2010 9:08am

frost is nearly gone. it was raining last night again:rolleyes:

paulocon · 07-12-2010 9:11am

Snowing away here close to Drogheda and I certainly don't think there is a thaw on... Am I living in some freak Micro-climate? Has the Ice-Age set in here?

It's been great but could really do with this thaw arriving - Christmas is sneaking up and not a thing done yet!

Cleavage1970 · 07-12-2010 9:14am

Athboy is covered in snow (like vibe666 camera - thanks for that!) Am due back in work tomorrow and have to go on the Navan/Athboy N51 road - anyone been there, whats it like?

Crackerspray · 07-12-2010 9:15am

Snow getting heavier again near Enfield. About 3 inches fell last night. Temperature is -1

Dickerty · 07-12-2010 9:16am

2 inches more in Glasnevin last night, but at least it protected the car from icing over.

Roads and paths were a little better with the fresh layer, but will get worse with more traffic...

ninebeanrows · 07-12-2010 9:19am

heavy thaw here now, dripping like mad and fresh covering disappearing.

irish1967 · 07-12-2010 9:23am

No sign of thaw up here. Dipped about -13 last night. May have to use a gat stand as a Christmas tree if I can't get out in the next few days !!

Poly · 07-12-2010 9:25am

light snow in Trim now, on top of 2-3" from last evening

él statutorio · 07-12-2010 9:25am

predictions for today?

Drummer Mummer · 07-12-2010 9:28am

Thaw on here too, thick snow sliding off the car, temp at +3c and a stiff easterly wind. Was raining half an hour ago and after a night of heavy snow, looks like its going to get very wet here!

dirtyghettokid · 07-12-2010 9:28am

massive thaw happening here in north co. dublin. it's raining for the last while.
disappointing! it was like a winter wonderland last night. looks crap out there now..

positron · 07-12-2010 9:28am

Plenty of snow in Portmarnock overnight - at least two inches. No frost though - just the usual slushy mess over frozen icy roads.

Gonzo · 07-12-2010 9:28am

heavy snow here again, the now depth is now back up to what it was before the thaw set in last saturday. From the looks of the radar the snow belt which drifted out over the Irish sea has mushroomed in size and is heading back towards Meath and Dublin and if it does it could end up snowing all day long!

furtzy · 07-12-2010 9:32am

The thaw is on in Ashbourne. It was between 0 - 1C at 6:45 this morning and already turning to rain. Hopefully this continues and its all gone by the time I get home

Sonovagun · 07-12-2010 9:34am

Can the experts tell us that front in the Irish sea is coming back in land? Might fall as rain.
