Few showers hugging the Arklow coast
Parameters are tight here now though

Slashermcguirk · 24-01-2021 4:13pm

Very dark clouds approaching the coast from the Irish sea

On a walk in Marley Park and its bickering snow now. Everything white now.

That was a decent snow shower in Dublin 16. Left a good covering on all surfaces. Has melted now on roads/pavements. 1.1c at.

Quite the covering on Croagh Patrick today.

Some light to moderate sleet and graupel showers here on the DLR coast. That's probably the last of the instability for today. Can't complain after this morning's mini whiteout (that brought about an inch of snow). Not too hopeful re. February but who knows.

Limavady must be cut off. Where's our correspondent?

Local SNOWTAM from Derry Eglinton. Runway clear and wet. Some slush deposits around periphery surfaces up to 25 mm deep.

UKV model going for lows of -6C to -7C locally across parts of Leinster, Connacht, Munster and south Leinster. Could turn very cold over snow covered areas. Chart attached below

Fantastic! I wonder how deep the snow actually is up there.

Just a pity we couldn't have another trough coming into that cold air later tonight.

Donegal Ken · 24-01-2021 4:26pm

Also a risk of freezing fog overnight and on Monday morning Chart attached below

Brutal thaw out now. Snowman turned to slushman as he was being built. Stupid fcukin country can't even do snow properly

Gonzo · 24-01-2021 4:36pm

snow practically all gone here in Dunshaughlin, even out of the sunlight. A few traces of snow in the ditches and the odd wilting mini snowman.

Supercell · 24-01-2021 4:42pm

Nearly all gone here but a couple of stops up the M50 its still a proper winter wonderland..

loughside · 24-01-2021 4:44pm

A real dumping of snow here in Co. Down, around 4-5inches, brought power lines down, just got reconnected. Looks like its all beginning to freeze now

DOCARCH · 24-01-2021 4:49pm

Light sleet/wet snow in Dublin 16 now. Skies clearing. 1.4c atm.

That happened in the last hour or so. Marley Park just to the right of that photo.

Kermit.de.frog · 24-01-2021 4:53pm

Might be one last attempt for Dublin coastal fringes shortly but then that will be that. Upper level winds already off shore further north along the county Down coast.

Going to be a very cold night, will be very icy conditions where the showers occurred today.

2 inches max there bud, definately not 5 inches

bosco12345 · 24-01-2021 5:07pm

Most of the snow here has thawed away and it hasn't gone above 1c, south east Cavan. Why has it thawed so easily? Is it because it was wer snow?

the snow was very wet here and almost turned back to rain at one point. Strong sunshine today made swift work of the snow cover despite temperatures only being 1 to 2C.

AndyBoBandy · 24-01-2021 5:12pm

The Mourne Mountains got a great dumping!!

cnocbui · 24-01-2021 5:14pm

From a walk I took, late this morning:

All melting rapidly now.

Another stunning clear sunny day in Letterkenny and still no melting at all since Fridays snow. Had a top up overnight but only amounted to <1cm

Would love to head out to the hills for a walk but with that being illegal a walk around the far more crowded park will have to do

That’s so bizarre. We can go wherever we want here.

That’s not true, you have a 10 mile restriction in the North.

Clouds in the west beyond the Ox mountains!

Auntie sent me photos of where she is in Co. Down, I've never seen the place so white and it was bucketing down

Really wish I was there.
