Yes still a shot for Xmas day but again I would say those with a bit of elevation and more so for those exposed to NW flow Of showers. But it could either way at mo. Def not as clear cut as two days ago.
-
But it's two runs maybe 3. It started to get ropey from last night. But yes it could easily turn the other way again. The weather is a fascinating subject and will continue to make mugs of us all. I am still hopeful but remain very level headed bout this
-
In the same token that's why it's important not to think snowmaggedan is coming after several great runs pomeroy. Calm heads are needed. Lol. As u say what will be will be. My thought is wintry weather will continue to be downgraded away from the hills possibly until new year. But I hope to god your positive outlook is right. One thing for sure is nothing is certain either way.

On word ronan "SHORTWAVE"
-
Gfs having a wee wobble. Let's hope it's not the start of a trend. Hope u have gone to be bed ronan!
-
I know MS. I totally agree they look good at mo but as you say I'm just waiting for the expected turnaround that normally happens year in year out. I still think any snow we see will be in places with a bit of elevation. But like most on here I'm hoping " for that Xmas cracker to burst open and give us all a white christmas"" I want a cracker from "harrods" as opposed to the "country shop"!!
-
I'm not convinced one little bit that the runs of last night will look anything like for that period. I think it might get colder briefly around Xmas for wintry showers on hills but to me that's the best we can hope for at present. The blinding charts came 4 days to early. I expect the changes to a way more modest outlook to start later this eve. Sorry . But I of course would love to be wrong.

Agree pomeroy
-
Honestly the model thread is an utterly confusing place at times. This morning some posters saying a pattern change is on the cards and there could be some snow possible at Xmas, others state no change at all until mid to late January if at all and the weather for the weeks ahead is for mobile mild westerlies with a few very brief PM shots. Utterly confusing and quite frankly Iv no idea what the long term forecast holds after reading that thread. !!
-
Yeah is here too
-
Rain turning to snow for me now. More and more snowflakes showing up.
-
The sleet is in the heavier precipitation at the mo in the east but over u and me MS is just light rain really.
-
We are on the edge of rain to sleet snow line MS
-
Not settling MS. Snow shower only lasted bout 15 mins so didn't have time to settle. I hear the hills around Belfast are whit end that would be about right as most showers do tend to be north of Belfast. But has ronan says the radar is starting to look lively to the south of us so u never know what could happen this eve. Better make the most of it as it looks to be getting a fair bit milder for a wee while from tomorrow eve and sat.

Snowing heavy in castlereagh hills at mo. This is great.
-
Totally right pomeroy. I'm a bit dubious of this warning. Covering themselves springs to mind. But good too see some snow last night.
-
I see a snow warning has been issued for Northern Ireland. Let's see how this turns out. Snow even possible to low levels. Not so sure of this myself but we will see.
-
Still snowing here but not lying on ground apart-from cars. Hope u all get to see some soon.
-
Snowing heavy at mo outside Belfast 100M ASL. U may get lucky if the precipitation band stays together. Hang in guys.
-
Sorry 100M ASL
-
Snowing at mo in the east of Northern Ireland outside Belfast. 100ft ASL
-
God to see MS. More than we prob seen whole of last year. Who knows what tomorrow will bring. Least we have seen some of the white stuff. Big flakes too
-
And there's your heavy snow. Bring it on. Castlereagh hills my location by the way. But it's still snow MS. Least it's giving it a go. Got to start somewhere. Won't lie though.
-
Come on . Come on. U can do it! Almost full on snow here at mo. ! Glad I stayed up a bit. Big flakes too.
-
In all my life MS I never go by the met office hourly breakdown. And yes it is always automated. Never has been accurate for anything other than snow. In fairness at present in is a tiny bit sleety at a push. But all in all this has been very poor for snow in relation to PM air. And the winds are mostly westerly not NW as forecast. Thereby lies the real problem at the mo.
