Really is something else, I think it's as much snow as I've seen and there seems to be no letting up.

[ronan]

Good to see that some of you have snow! Absolutely nothing here. Lights flickering away!!

[skywatcher]

Power outage here in Belfast. Only lasted a few minutes but the situation is still unstable.

[gingercat]

Heard the lights keep going on and off all over Belfast!

Gutted Ronan, if there was one person I'd love to see get snow it would be you, always looking forward to the snow events etc.. Hope you get something during the night.

[snowydog]

Power went out there ahhh

[mountain shadow]

Just had a major powercut.Alarms going off all over thr shop.

Getting in for a foot and a half.

[ronan]

Ah well Watsy! Nothing a drive to the Glenshane on Sunday with the wee ones won't fix. Maybe something will show up through the night.

[The watcher]

Electric out for 10 minutes here, street lights keep going off and on.

Thank god it came back on, no candles and needed the loo for a number 2.

[skywatcher]

Lights still flickering. We've finished the Jamieson and are on to blended we were given as an xmas present. About a foot of snow as far as I can see - may be more but no way am I going outside tonight to measure it. And it's still falling!!!

[Juuyoku]

Lights still flickering here too, candles ready just in case! Bit of sleet here at the minute.

[mountain shadow]

As mental snow conditions ive ever experienced.

And im fae Dundee.

Does electricity issues, Blizzards, blocked roads not warrant a Red warning?

[snowingman]

Email them from your phone to watcher maybe?

Sounds impressive lads, delighted for you. Some contrasts across the island today, with Cork and parts of the east coast under several feet of flood water. In the last 24 hours I've recorded 39mm rain, but 58mm since this began! Currently 4.3 degrees, and a dewpoint of +2... It's a long way to snow for me here anyway!!!

[Juuyoku]

Here's the build up of snow on my living room window. I'd take better pictures but I am in my pyjamas and I am not getting out of them or going outside in them for love nor money

[gingercat]

IMHO should definitely be a red warning. We're just waiting for the lights to go out.

[mountain shadow]

If Watcher can put his e mail address will gladly send.

[ronan]

MS send them to me and I will put them up for you.
