    The wind will push those toward Wales :(

    We have one hope, thats snow showers moving down from Scotland. Which wont arrive until very late tonight.

    looks like its dying as it spreads south. West Clare and extreme west kerry are going to see the last of it and it will be much lighter by then.

    0.5c here. cloud cover increasing. NE breeze.

    Oh yeah it will be snow, no doubt! No thawing here today yet, and had a few nice flakes already 5-10m ago. The real deal is coming too :D

    same here. it got lighter over the last 10 minutes. there is a decent covering now. so if that's all there is so be it. it was brilliant to see heavy snow reducing visibility. i've not seen snow like that for a good while.

    I do hope we get a decent covering tonight or tomorrow. Navan has missed out a lot during this cold spell. Just 2 small dustings in 2 weeks that don't even last the day

    ''Can anyone hazard a guess if it's likely to snow Navan/Dunshauglin area with these coming bands? Took me 3 hours to drive from Navan to Blanchardstown this morning and i'd like to determine if i should head home early today and what conditions are likely tomorrow? Cheer!''


    Unlikely to see further snow in Dunshaughlin/Navan for most of today, maybe a chance of some snow showers later 2night and 2moro.

    The snow that fell last night in Wset Dublin (1.5 cm) really enhanced things. Total whiteout in Castleknock/Clonsila with snow and ice everywhere from cars to all roads etc. No thaw either.:D
