    Bits of sleet/wet snow blowing in the wind. 3.3c DP 1.2c

    I hope the main bands of ppn over the Irish Sea don't get pulled east with the low centre!

    +1.1c here. Snow/hail easing off. Just below the snow line here.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,310 ✭✭✭Trogdor


    4.3C here with some sleet but the bigger event here at the moment seems to be the wind. Only gusting to 64kph on the station but on the seafront you can barely stand up and the waves coming onto the shore are enormous, some don't even have the time to break before the whole weave is whipped off by the wind!


  • Registered Users Posts: 203 ✭✭Monkaa


    Was snowing in carrickmines dublin 18 half an hour ago for 20 mins, didnt stick...just wet, cold and windy now! Ive just flown home from 2 and half months of 35 degree heat in south east asia so to say im feeling the cold is understatement lol


  • Registered Users Posts: 10 eredmond


    We had a brief hail shower here in Waterford about 15 mins ago. Temp dropped from 8.8c at 16.45 to 6.1c at 17.15. Sun out again now with a temp of 6.7c. Max Gust today 50km/h.

    Will We get snow down here then do ya think?


  • Moderators, Science, Health & Environment Moderators Posts: 16,967 Mod ✭✭✭✭Gonzo


    light rain with bits of sleet here all afternoon, cleared now and drying up. Bitterly cold outside, the coldest it's felt in about a year.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,548 ✭✭✭Harps


    Hail and sleet showers here every half an hour or so, some snow mixed in every now and then. A bit of snow on the hills but its only a patchy covering.

    Like Trogdor the wind has been the most notable thing here with a constant strong wind making it feel bitterly cold outside, thankfully I haven't had to venture out much. 4C with a dp of -1.7C at the moment

    Unfortunately winds far too strong for any consistent showers, just patches of light rain, sleet, and hail blowing in the gale...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 629 ✭✭✭cotton


    Strong winds & heavy hail in greystones now. Lights are starting to flicker.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,520 ✭✭✭✭dsmythy

    I'm on the Louth-Meath border and it's snowing here : ) Just on and off though, not a huge amount. Good big flakes though.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,550 ✭✭✭Min

    I would love to see a few flakes but i can't see it happening.


  • Registered Users Posts: 454 ✭✭john why


    Some sleet in d 15


  • Moderators, Science, Health & Environment Moderators Posts: 16,967 Mod ✭✭✭✭Gonzo


    just had a very light snow shower, not sure there will be much else tonight other than the odd light flake, the front seems to be decaying with the main stuff over the Irish sea towards Wales. The showers here seem to be over as soon as they start.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 172 ✭✭shootie


    Flakes falling here at the moment.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,259 ✭✭✭Tindie


    Yeah some snow tomorrow for Birmingham, don't think will set but i like seeing the snow fall.
    The last snow fall this winter!

    (These reminds of 2008 weather, warm then cold weather, Wash out July and snowy October really and cold December with a lot of snow in Jan 09)

    2012, I think this summer it going something like 2003! (Which I hated lol) , We not had a summer like that for a very long time. I think this year could be it"

    Temperature is up and down a lot here as the showers pass but it never drifts too far from about 4.0C.

    Currently 3.6C/1.6C in a brief interlude between showers.

    It's been snowing here in Rathdrum since about 6.30/7pm and strong winds to!. Lampost watching is fun here this evening!. It's very wet out though so it won't stick but it's strange to be looking out at big snowflakes falling in Easter week:)

    slight dusting of snow grains on the car and heavy frost despite the wind, sky is totally clear now and by the looks of things it will stay clear for the rest of the night here as the band of rain/snow over wicklow edges southwards.

    Have been a few hail showers in Sandyford area of Dublin very windy and cold rain showers now. Let it snow. Winter tires on car a trip up to the family in the mountains later might be in order :)

    Just cut across the hills from Tallaght to Pine Forest to Glencullen to Stepaside to Sandyford.

    Only thing you need is a good set of windscreen wipers to get all the sleet and gunge off :cool:


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,003 ✭✭✭Lucreto


    Nothing but clear skies here in Naas

    I heard Mars is visible tonight. It is the star close to the moon.
