    Dublin Airport and Casement have been reporting "light snow" or "Snowy rain" since 0400
    Anything sticking?

    Down in Wicklow its raining with temp at 2C. Possibly was a few flakes earlier when the temp was 1C

    EDIT:- if anything did stick it'll be rapdily disappearing as at 0700 its light rain at Casement and sleet at Dublin Airport.
    Although the likes of 3 Rock should have some snow on it.

    No sticking of snow in Dublin Airport. Air temperatures were only down to about -0.9 to-1.3 degrees at their lowest, so everything melted as soon as it reached the ground.

    All precipitation at the moment is rain.

    Well credit where it is due, he did predict snow and it came, come on it is not like he pulled a michael fish (1987 storm ) and got it completely wrong,
    Excuse me?
    5-10 cms of snow predicted by weathercheck thats 2-5 inches...
    Thats a michael Fish in anyones books except worse because it's predicting the hurricane that never happened.

    Met ÉIREANN were correct though when they talked of Rain preceded by sleet and snow.
    Theres been no disruption though as theres been no significant settling except on the hill tops.

    Raining here in wicklow by the way.

    A good covering of snow in North Co. Meath/South-east Co. Cavan this morning, maybe 2cm.

    What I want to know is as I've rarely seen snow in November, when was the last time it happened, and what was the rest of the winter like?

    Early this morning 3 miles inland up at 600ft, was "quite a bit of snow". What that translates in depth I don't exactly know, but it seem to be 2-3"
    By 1000, it was raining and the snow was thawing.

    Parts of this thread reminds of a thread back in late Jan/early Feb :)

    Can't help thinking that if it had just been a single degree colder Weathercheck mightened have been far off the mark, as it is, Met Eireann got it pretty much spot on. A fine line between success and failure
