Snow Showers and potential Accumulations - Ulster (Northern especially)

I am a long time lurker on this forum but rarely post. We had a very short snow shower in Tullamore but with the frozen ground it was enough to give us a winter wonderland for about an hour. Thaw well set in now and nearly all gone.

Light snow in glencullen.

Back to cold rain. These mild sectors are a right nuisance.

Not when you're 336m asl;)

Maybe I am wrong but it appears snow is once again possible in the same regions (Northern and NW Ulster) from Tomorrow night? With the “cold” air sticking around until Monday?

Or believe me the freezing level is well above that.

Snowing for a while here on the hills in Kilkenny, everywhere turning white, apparently just rain in the city.

A hard ground frost here last night but air temps barely got down below zero. Today, like all the other days of this 'cold spell' is just grimy pulp.

Made your post more pleasing on the eye

Still snowing here started around 2pm, decent covering and some of it has been really heavy, from massive flakes to normal sized.
The roads on the hills around Kilkenny best avoided due to the snow cover.

The freezing level will rise right up to 1000-1200 metres. The next event will be Saturday.

Someone forgot to tell the folks living on the Laois-Kilkenny hills that (150m+)

Yeah started as snow and just an afternoon of constant snow.

Roots 2020 · 31-12-2020 6:02pm

Snowing away Laois/Carlow/Kilkenny border.

You could tell from experience and the time of day it started it wasn't going to turn to sleet or rain. I have a nose for the freezing level in my homeplace!

Most of it gone by now, thanks to frequent showers of rain.

Last stretches of snow remaining above 300 metres. Maybe some snow tonight.
