Sleet showers on and off all day, still patchy snow cover. Idk how seeing as we only had 1cm covering. At dusk above 130/150m was still pure white. I thought 2.5 days of snow cover earlier in the week so even though it was nice it snowed it was a pile of crap tbh considering expectations and lack of sleep spent lamppost watching

Midnight

That's FC to end up in East Anglia by morning. Met Eireann give showers to continue overnight with further accumulations

Usually a sign a shower is close in these set ups

Covering of snow outside now. I can't keep up

Malin Head is currently 5C, it was 2C earlier today.

Met eireann Station recording snow at 96% humidity, BALLYHAISE CAVAN http://www.met.ie/latest/reports.asp Also according to that link Castlederg would have a 60% chance of snow And at 6pm Castlederg from Met office is 0.6C 97% humidity so that would be 90% risk

It was supposed to be snow, changing it at the last minute doesn't make it correct in my book ha

Looking at the radar, the areas seeing snow now have sleet/rain following on behind it. High ground will be different of course

0.8C, -2 Dew, 528 dam line hundreds of miles south and yet its raining lol.

What's your altitude Ronan

Sisters place 10 miles north of me 70m asl completely white and snowing . Just plain rain with me now and I'm 30m less elevation lol

Sperrins would be cheaper

Yeah same for me. For my location anyway, too wet and still rainy, this was the organised band of "snow" I was waiting for ha. Elevation above 100m around me all white. Lets hope the sleet here turns to snow for others. Huge letdown, wasn't expecting much other than a dusting of 1cm or 2cm tbf

Sleet is more of rain than snow now, soaking out.

Short lived snow showers throughout the day then once its half organised it turns to sleet ha. Its 1c colder now than it was when it was snowing.

Snow has turned to sleet just as it was starting to give a little dusting

I'm low ground, 100% snow with me. Just started to snow again.

Snowing proper in Donegal, heavy big flakes and windy

Did he say mostly rain, or was that for coastal areas only?

Huh?

Yes showers are rapidly disintegrating once they make land fall.

Snow warning for Western half of NI for tomorrow removed. It'll probably snow more in the West tomorrow now

Beside the pink bit
