Cold week ahead, change is on the way ............

Belting down in D4 again. The place should be nicely covered tomorrow.

Edit.. it came down heavily for about 2 minutes. I went to my balcony to have a look and saw a fox rolling around in it.. he heard me going for my camera before I could get a photo

ravydavygravy · 27-03-2013 4:59am

Snowing well in CityWest - place is covered...

cherryghost · 27-03-2013 5:01am

About 1cm of snow lying in City Centre now. It needs to keep falling consistently though as it's too wet for the snow to stick. There's about 2-3cm on roofs and grass. Showers on the way in looks decidedly heavier so fingers crossed.

Looks like some showers in Wicklow are on the way

Not · 27-03-2013 5:02am

Nothing more falling or has fallen in last few hours here near Kildare town dispite the radar indicating otherwise.

psycho-hope · 27-03-2013 5:03am

not a flake of snow to be seen in Kilcoole, had a few flurries this afternoon but nada since then:(

i know just looked out the window so disappointed maybe theres still hope lol

Faustino · 27-03-2013 5:08am

some bigger flakes falling now. just seems to be hanging in the air as the wind is so strong.

has anyone got any photos of D14?

looking at raintoday.co.uk, it looks like a constant stream of intermittent showers for next hour or so. Any chance it might get heavier?

Use metoffice.co.uk radar. It's brilliant,I've been comparing the two mets all night and it's no contest. South of Belsfast has been in bright coloured echoes for a long time. 4inches plus I reckon

Started to snow again here in D15. Very light. Then it just stopped. Pssh.

pad199207 · 27-03-2013 5:48am

Looks roughly two inches on the roof here , effort of getting out of bed to go down to the garden !

Faustino · 27-03-2013 5:53am

There was nothing for a while but just starting again in D4 now.

Hopefully it'll be a heavier shower this time

Faustino · 27-03-2013 6:04am

Lookking at http://www.raintoday.co.uk/ it dosent look like it is going to stop anytime soon

jds0ur · 27-03-2013 7:01am

Doubt it'll last -0.6c here now and on the rise, was -1c 20 mins ago.

ninebeanrows · 27-03-2013 7:04am

Temperature here just the wrong side of 0 so just a patchy melting dusting.

Nice to see though with light snow falling

I'm optimistic but when temps go up they go up

Wow, view from my window in West Dublin just a few minutes ago! How amazing for late March!!

finnharpsboy · 27-03-2013 7:13am

Nother little shower here now, its good fun in a forklift

cherryghost · 27-03-2013 7:15am

Snow stuck to some of the main roads in the city centre. Anyone on the morning commute I'd exercise a little caution. Footpaths are slippery too.

ninebeanrows · 27-03-2013 7:16am

fingers crossed, few decent echoes could be about to push in near here.

pad199207 · 27-03-2013 7:18am

View out the window

Amazingfun · 27-03-2013 7:19am

When I looked out the window just now I actually gasped! It's snowing!!! And it's beautiful

I am right near Phoenix Park/North Circular Road area.....

ravydavygravy · 27-03-2013 7:21am

Just drove from CityWest to Kilcullen on the N7 - bad conditions in City west, swept 5cm of snow off the car before leaving. The N7 was very white, everyone driving in the single pair of tracks cleared by the lorries. Stayed like that, with driving snow making bad viability until Naas, where the volume of snow fell off quite a bit and the road was much clearer. Road was fine after Naas south exit, with small amounts of lying snow in the fields. Same here in kilcullen, light covering of snow.

I'd say commuting to Dublin this morning would be rough....

pad199207 · 27-03-2013 7:22am

Area from Airport North to Balbriggan, your in for a right oul prolonged doozy of a shower!

ongarboy · 27-03-2013 7:27am

The Dublin traffic cameras give a good indication of what fell in the greater Dublin area. Seems like city centre got nothing and southern/western areas got the most!

Scubadevils · 27-03-2013 7:46am

Most posters have their location under their username on the left hand side so that will tell you where they are. Those that don't should mention it however.

More heavy snow falling in Ongar right now. I'd say we have about 2.5 cms now.

Cold week ahead, change is on the way ............
