It's warmed up a little here. Light, persistent rain. Calm.

South Sligo
90m asl

(the thunder and hail last night was epic - is the yellow warning a day out?)

sicknotexi · 10-03-2019 12:33am

Last Saturday night there was a real coldness to the air, don't feel that tonight. Will be surprised if snow falls overnight.

Occluded trough coming on shore now. This more likely to have snow in it to lower levels.

I havent heard wind like that since storm Darwin in 2014 here in limerick. That rumble of a freight train out side.

Rain at all stations around the country so far, except for Glennane (161 m, near Newry), which started reporting snow at 6 am (temp 0.7, dewpoint-0.1). Everywhere is 1-2 degrees the wrong side of marginal.

ninebeanrows · 10-03-2019 8:06am

Looks a few hours yet before the real cold air marches in from the west. Precip turning in most areas hy afternoon.

Could be slight covering in a few areas by early tonight.
