    Nothing too organized so a nowcasting event as we follow clusters of mixed wintry showers on radar tomorrow. Probably quite variable results and somewhat elevation based, chances of a temporary covering of snow may range from 10% at sea level to 70% above 300m. Covering would be defined as 2-5 cm lasting perhaps a few hours. Also risk of hail and snow pellets from some of these showers. A high probability of 5-8 cm covering in higher parts of the country above 500m. This will last overnight and melt in the milder conditions mid-day Sunday.

    MT love your forcastes the are my daily bible, but I so hope you've got this one So Wrong!!! Sorry :(

    As i say from the start , it was gonna be very close , a 1 or 2 o temp in our favour would of made things alot better.

    I woke up to the sound of the freezing rain / hail . Was great ha .

    Snow on some of the Twelve Bens this morning, a bit better than one third the way down, can't see all of them, couldn't see the Maumturks either, presume there's snow on all of them.

    My sister just sent me a phone pic of a dusting of snow they had in Cappamore, East Limerick this morning.

    All the models are showing a change to colder weather after the 15th of January roughly. After that who knows...

    Great pics Kippure, roads look extremely slippy up there, bet the wind was none to pleasant either!

    Have a weather station?, why not join the Ireland Weather Network - http://irelandweather.eu/

    A light covering of snow while driving through the hills in Donegal earlier, had a light snow shower as well though nothing worth taking a photo of. Just sleet at sea level so a bit of a non event

    Friend of mine was on top of lugnaquilla earlier. Quite a lot of snow up there. See the pictures thread. A lot of precip last night, just depended on your elevation what you got.

    Incredible hearing of snow. I was over with my son at newbridge farm this afternoon in donabate and it was glorious.
    I was going around with my jacket open it was so nice.

    You've never been skiing then...

    Hiked up Djouce today.. a little covering but nothing special. Snow line was fairly high - like 600m+.

    It was cold here in Connemara today, properly cold, and I am used to the outdoors being a farmer but there was a noticeable bite all day.
