hope all you guys up north get some good snowfall!
any chance of snow in Dublin tonight or tomorrow?
SP
Radar screenshots from 9pm and midnight:
Interesting over Donegal but thats about it for the moment. Things may have intensified ever so slighltly further east but thats probably just wishful thinking on my behalf!
Something major could be on the cards in the next few hours for the Southern Contingent.With the Northern trough coming down and meetin it Dublin and eastern areas in general could be in for a suprise right up to County Down in N Ireland.
I agree, well spotted I was keeping an eye on the northern band of snow. Could get very interesting over the next few hours, particularly around Dublin.
-
GFS outlook:
-
Light snow here since 7 pm - all in all about 1mm deep so far
Radar is interesting, although the snow band is narrow, its movement is very slow so if things could get interesting should it start to intensify.

Got a very light dusting here in Cork at around 6 and it is still on the roof tops and cars even now. Very cold though in a crappy student house with just electric heating!
Ouch - sounds like you are in for a rough couple of weeks if BBC monthly forecast is anything to go by:
Monday 2 February 2009 to Sunday 8 February
“Cold with heavy snow.”
A cold week in prospect with widespread frosts, bitter winds and potentially some very disruptive snowfall.
We start the week in a raw easterly airstream, reaching us all the way from Arctic Russia. Through Monday this will progressively push snow showers to all but the most sheltered western fringes of the UK.
Eastern areas of the UK will be worst affected by the showers, with accumulations up to about 10 inches (25cm) possible in places. The wind will mean a risk of blizzards and drifting but also adds a significant wind chill.
Through the second half of Monday a weather system from northern France starts to extend into the UK and this then brings the potential of yet more heavy falls.
This system will spread right across the UK Monday and into Tuesday producing again the best part of foot of snow in some areas as it does so.
Tuesday and Wednesday will see the falling snow become focused across Scotland and Northern Ireland. England and Wales however are likely to still have lying snow and ice to contend with.
Thursday and Friday are the set to see the wind swing round to a northerly direction, bringing air straight from the Arctic, keeping us all cold and pushing the snow risk back into England and Wales.
Monday 9 February 2009 to Sunday 15 February 2009
"Remaining cold with risk of further snow."
This weeks weather looks set to be dominated by low pressure and winds from the east or northeast.
This factors combined will give cold and unsettled conditions. Eastern areas will face or sleet, maybe even turning to snow at times. Sheltered western areas will be comparatively much drier and brighter.
Day time highs will struggle and the nights promise very sharp frosts.
Monday 16 February 2009 to Sunday 01 March 2009
“Cold with wintry flurries.”
Not a lot of change is predicted in the synoptic set up across the UK for the second half of the month.
Conditions look set to remain cold courtesy of easterly winds and once again unsettled thanks to the continued influence of low pressure areas.
-
Heavy snow continuing to fall here in Randalstown - no sign of sleet or rain!
-
Very heavy sleety rain here in South Antrim. Winds picking up also.

Thanks! Wonder why no one else reply? Isn't anyone else jealous!?
We ended up having hottest day since February at 32 degrees under very hot gusty NW lies. Was 30 degrees after sunset! That was very hot! Temperature cooled down this morning at 12 degrees which is coolest since September.
Looks like another severe storms outbreak for Northern NSW and SEQLD again from Wednesday. Temperatures would certainly kick into 30's again for most of areas with high dewpoints into low to mid 20's. A little bit early at this stage.
I am very very jealous!!

Thats a cracking photo, well done
-
Grabbed a couple of (not very good) shots of this little monster, around 2 inches long.
Took me a while on Google to identify it as a Devil's Coach Horse Beetle. I can only recall seeing it once before here in Co Antrim, many years ago. Possibly more common in other parts of UK/Ireland?
Although it has no 'sting in its tail' it can give a painful bite with its strong pincer-like jaws. It also emits a foul smelling odour, as a defensive secretion, from a pair of white glands at the end of its abdomen (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ocypus_olens). YUCK!!

Yeah, not looking good. Dry air mass moving towards us from the north - cant see anything major happening for now
But still loads of potential over the next few days.
