Met Éireann used the S word twice in the same sentence, significant and snow for this evening and overnight.
Expect increased warning level later

I've been up all night with a toothache lol. Had a shower of sleet an hour ago and temps just under 3c. The cold air has been filtering in behind it since. The 4 coldest stations currently on the nra website are in donegal. All have dropped by 1 to 1.5c in the last hour. Shower hitting soon, will see what it's like then try to sleep ha

Someone reported its snowing in Omagh on boards
-
Hill snow mentioned for this 5.5 hour warning, hopefully those higher up like Sperrin wake up the white gold. I'm only 40m asl but the cold air will reach here first so just a case of wait and see in the morning. Good luck to all for tomorrow.

The "warning" is just for 5.5 hours lol. It's behind this front that the snow showers will pack in so I assume they'll release another one then. 3 High resolution models I've checked going for 10cm plus in the worst affected areas so I'm confident enough it will be better than the Met office think thus far. Regardless weird they issued it now and not earlier

Does anyone know what’s going on, makes good reading but no consistency between any forecasts.
Where abouts are you stormy?
According to hirlam and euro4 its gets going around tomorrow morning, maybe that's why met office have no warning yet? As not much happening tonight. IMO I would say lying snow across the NW tomorrow evening.

Snow will start around dawn in the NW. Colder air doesn't get in until then
-
Regardless it's not great they haven't issued one. In saying that places that got snow last week saw it after the warning had it expired and none in place.
-
Hirlam and Euro4 going for decent accumulations still across the NW. I am surprised the Met office haven't issued a warning, I've never seen hirlam and Euro4 on the same page and no warning from them for NI. At the very least I expected an ice warning and in the chief forecasters analysis mention the possibility of slight accumulations.
-
Both are similar 7 to 10cm+ plus possible
-
Hirlam and Euro4 going for decent accumulations across the NW over next 48 hours. Will be interesting what colour warning met eireann go for. Euro 4 going for 7 to 9cm low ground and 10cm+ on the higher from the shot I just saw on model thread. That would be red with their criteria but not a hope in hell of that lol. Hoping to see a orange/Amber but will probably be a yellow ha.

Yeah Ronan. I doubt the track is fully nailed on yet, I'll be happy enough with snow showers either way but would rather than persistent band

Last time I'll quote this guy from boards but I really really really think it's going to snow now lol
"The Germans have a term for what we'll get this week: Nasskalt. That horrible wet cold that's of use to no-one. Temperature and dewpoints both in low single figures, cold wet slop.
There is still no signal of anything of any interest at low levels this week. Where is the cold dry boundary level going to come from? Modified Greenland air that will be sitting around here for a few days. Lovely for mountainyman and some higher dwellers, not much for the rest of us. Look beyond the model output for a moment and think of the bigger picture." -
Bank ECM for Thursday. Nice frost out this evening.

@mountain shadow your snow event from that low Thursdays trending the wrong way only the gfs showing the North getting snow now
Saw that but we might not know for sure where it will go until Wednesday with where the low will go. I remember in March 2013 when the north got buried, the low was expected to hit England the worst until the day before and shifted.
I'd be happy just to get a decent covering, prolonged snow from a LP would be a bonus.

Where's our yellow warning?
11am tomorrow I guess. Snow totals look decent over donegal, less wind so doesn't look as though as many will push as far inland as it did in the earlier forecasts. Reckon could still be changes
-
I think the biggest issue is people say it's a terrible run full stop without including for my location. An Easterly is almost always crap for my location and after missing out on the monster snow last season, zero snow from it in fact when I saw the easterly being modeled a couple of weeks ago, I knew it was going to be great for some if it happened but not for me so I said not a great run for my location. Anyway boards.ie is mostly the same as the model thread, some say the same as in the mod thread without including the important for my location part, you could have a foot of snow outside yet it wouldn't count as it's not from an Easterly with some of them.

Showers been mostly to the south of me, just had a flurry an hour ago. Already freezing and judging by radar should get a shower within 1 hour.
