Situation at 350 metres... https://streamable.com/duuejz

Think maybe a few centimetres up there by morning?

Light snow currently in Castlebar.

Hevey dinner plates falling in Virginia. Unexpected.

Just because it’s not in your area doesn’t mean the rest of us shouldn’t discuss it.

Indeed, we have 100+ page threads for a bit of slush or a windy day multiple times every winter. This is the first day of interesting weather we've had in 6 weeks so harm having a thread

Proper heavy snow here now:)

nacho libre · 26-03-2021 7:25pm

It's interesting how quickly the colder air got back in after the warmer conditions this afternoon

nacho libre · 26-03-2021 7:34pm

It has eased off now, but it's looks like there are more showers to come. A bit of snow has accumulated on the grass and on the car

Just had a snow shower here near Trim, oh hi my lil white friends!!

suicide_circus · 26-03-2021 7:47pm

Just got lashed out of it with hail, Dublin south city

Kermit.de.frog · 26-03-2021 7:49pm

Snowing near Santry, chunky enough flakes.

Artane2002 · 26-03-2021 7:53pm

Brief snow shower in Dublin 5, it was mostly sleet and hail but did turn to full on snow for a bit.

Discuss away, I said "normally". If this is a little more than the normal March/April pattern then good for those that get it.

Some interesting clouds brewing to the west.

Snow shower Galway City just now

typhoony · 26-03-2021 8:47pm

sleety\snow mix here in South Galway. temperature down to 2.1C

Nqp15hhu · 26-03-2021 9:28pm

Dew point slowly dropping here but few showers. For some reason Connacht always seems to get heavier more frequent showers?

Oneiric 3 · 26-03-2021 9:33pm

Place turned white here about 30 mins ago with a mix of hail and snow. Not a particularly heavy shower though. Real heavy showers have become a thing of the past.

This is normal March weather, in fact I would argue that it is below par. It only seems out of the norm this time around because of the prolonged spell of dull nothing weather that we have just barely clawed our way out of but will be dragged back into from tomorrow onwards for the forseeable.

Nqp15hhu · 26-03-2021 10:35pm

Snowing here.

pauldry · 26-03-2021 11:39pm

Had one heavy shower of hailstones as I suspected we would but mainly rain now.

We can call today a discussion more than an event.

Cluedo Monopoly · 27-03-2021 12:23am

Quite cold out. A wet cold. I think I saw the ISS earlier.

Some of the hailstones earlier were massive.

M.T. Cranium · 27-03-2021 12:30am

If any mods about, this thread never got a level tag although I think it could have been a level one for snowfall in a few places, however, we now have level one alerts issued for wind speeds tomorrow in some northwest counties.

Could continue on here with that, or start a new thread? If you want to go with a new thread, just post it directly.

Also, let's cut off the Netweather based antagonism and contain it over there, it is not going to help our weather forum in any way to import that kind of stuff. (not taking sides on this, don't care either)

Donegal Storm · 27-03-2021 1:32am

Torrential hail downpour here at the moment, heaviest shower I've seen all 'winter'

redsteveireland · 27-03-2021 2:12am

Lovely winters night with the moon lighting everything up.

An Ri rua · 27-03-2021 2:33am

Frozen rain /hail /graupel on my car. Tullamore area.
Dead calm. Nasty gusts earlier. A lot of work to do on a damaged pergola tomorrow before the next wind event.
No lying snow this way as yet but very heavy sleet event this morning at 9. Like a bleak late November cold rain night.

giveitholly · 27-03-2021 10:28am

Very quite in here this morning,presume everyone is out building snowmen and throwing snowballs and too busy to post

highdef · 27-03-2021 11:04am

Nqp15hhu, any chance you can post some of your excellent photos and videos of the snow up in your nearby hills? I need a snow fix and video of a winter wonderland on this island will do the trick.

Cluedo Monopoly · 27-03-2021 11:08am

I can see snow on the Connemara hills. Very tempted to heard out there but its a bit wild!
