Ireland - Winter/Spring Weather Discussion Part 6

[kimmirut]

The station near where Frostyjoe lives has jumped up by 1C.

He won't be happy.

Yea but that only happens because fog gets thicker it drops again -5.5c here now everything all White you'd think it snowd

[BIG LAD]

max today here of 0.4c and currently -3.2c after earlier -4.1c.

[sundog]

Frosty with a fair bit of fog here,

current temp -2.5c

[gingercat]

-4.5c here!

[Rocheydub]

-2.4 and dropping fast, and foggy here. Crispy yet foggy. Weird night...I was out the back a few minutes ago, and got treated to a meteor shower of sorts.. Very unusual to see one in the suburbs of Dublin due to light pollution. My anemometer hasn't budged in an hour and a half!

Love this weather, but dreading my February gas bill!

*Edit* Now -2.6.

Plus, some excitement developing on the models thread about some easterlies coming from Russia about 10 days from now... Sneachta heaven comes back into play (small percentage, but still hope!)

temp rose to -1c during the night then fell back to currently -4.2c.

[The watcher]

BRRR!!! Still below 0c here, -0.7c with a thick frost....severe in places where melt hasn't been achieved the last few days. Almost like snow, but not quite the same.

[stormforce 10]

skies cleared at 08:30hrs and temp fell to -2.1c, now temp is climbing again . currently its -1.6c and frosty. nice and sunny too.

[sundog]

Clear and sunny,bits of high cloud about,last nights low -2.6c

Current temp 1.9c

[stormforce 10]

another beautiful sunny crisp day. top temp of 4.1c, on the way down again and quickly. currently outside temp of 1.4c.

frost persisted in the shade today in fact back garden has been frosty since monday morning, pond has 2 inches of ice on surface too. just some high cloud around now with a wonderful sunset.

[stormforce 10]

-0.3c with frost setting in. another sub=zero night.

[sundog]

Max today 2.5c (my coldest max so far during this colder spell)

Clear cold and frosty,current temp -0.9c

[thetonynator]

Had our second ice day in a row here due to extremely thick fog, never got above -1 all day. . . Very dull and depressing, although trees and everything are white due to freezing fog. Normally 2 ice days would be a good sign for snow but not this time. . .

[stormforce 10]

well I have to say, this is an interesting little cold spell.

fifth day with persistent frost in the shade, quite thick and looks like snow. a heavy frost coming down tonight. current outside temp -2.9c.

I can't remember the last time I had five days of inversion high frosty cold weather on the trot like this. I think I would have to go back to the eighties. i wasn't expecting it to be this cold.

It looks quite wintry outside, next best thing to snow I suppose.

crackin little cold spell this. max today of 0.4c and currently -3.2c. my back garden is so white youd think it had snowed!

[ForeverPomeroysnow]

Indeed biglad - very crunchy under foot as well, roads very slippy as well around here

[stormforce 10]

-3.6c frosty with a clear moonlit starry sky.

[BIG LAD]

temps got down to -4.4c just after midnight but been on the rise ever since. currently -0.4c.

[BornFromTheVoid]

Even in Cork city many footpaths have remained icy for a few days now, despite Cork Airport having only it's first sub 0C night yesterday (-1.1C) and getting up to between 5 and 7C most days. At just over 150m asl, it really shows the difference a little height can make in these inversion conditions!

[The watcher]

Been frost free all night, toasty day at 6.3c currently. Minimum of 3.2c last night.

[thetonynator]

sun is starting to burn through the fog for the first time in a few days, might not have an ice day if this keeps up!! I like the cold bright weather but not this bloody fog!

[The watcher]

Won't be long before this high becomes quite messy for most now, been cloudy all morning here and it's keeping temps up rightly. Could be a miserable few days in store before the HP moves West and then returns again.

[stormforce 10]

overnight low of -5.1c at 01:45hrs but on the rise ever since. current outside temp 2.5c and cloudy. looks like it could be dull and gloomy until wednesday. gonna resort to my other hobbies now.
