New thread for the Ireland regionals.

Ramp away, discuss the ever changing Ireland weather and snow prospects.

Be good, no arguing or I'll be chopping heads. diablo.gif

Getting colder as the day is coming to an end here, fingers were getting numb under the gloves.

12z GFS is quite the snowfest! Starting in the north tomorrow evening and then the rest of the country later in the weekend.

Things looking interesting!

Should we be concerned that Met IE are warning of accumulations only on higher ground?

That's only valid until Friday afternoon and was posted up at quarter past 4 so included their own model and earlier runs. They should give another update later today when the other 12z runs have come out that will likely sound much better.

Met Eireann are usually very conservative when it comes to mentioning snow, so even that slight mention is a positive sign imo!

Metcheck aren't a reputable weather site. It will snow here,Mt on boards gives the highest totals to be in areas like southern Donegal. I asked for snowfall totals not hateful feedback lol jk

Well it is looking good for NI Friday for all but south Ulster, but becoming more widespread as the weekend moves on. Look at dew points from the 12z
