[mountain shadow]

Big upgrades from mid next week for sure.

[Weegaz]

Fingers crossed!!

[ronan]

Been lurking the past week as i've been struck by the worst man flu that i've ever had! Not good. Anyways its good to see that we could have another cold shot incoming next week. Here's hoping anyway. As mentioned above we haven't had a decent northerly in a long time so would be nice to see one. There wasn't a drop of snow showing in the 06z then completely flipped on the 12z. Lets hope the trend continues.

Poor you Ronan, not nice bud, get the hot whiskey into ye, help sweat it out and all that. anyway nice looking charts

[ronan]

Pom I've had a cold the past 3 weeks but the flu hit me big time this week. I'm off the smokes 3 weeks to after 15 years and crabit as hell. Lol

[Weegaz]

Poitin from the glens of Antrim, only cure Ronan!! Lol

[Su Campu]

If the Hirlam were to be believed then Donegal and Derry would be getting pasted with snow tonight, with sub-515 dm thicknesses across all of Ulster. However, it's completely erroneous, as its 12Z analysis showed 531 dm at around Castor Bay, but the actual radiosonde measured 542 dm! Caveat emtor!

 

[ForeverPomeroysnow]

Aye don't drink it though, just rub it on your chest, isn't that right weegaz I remember drinking plum poitin before heading to Cookstown one Christmas night the rest is a very messy blur... Haven't touched it since

[ronan]

Poitin from the glens of Antrim, only cure Ronan!! Lol

Send me up some Gaz or i'll pick it up on my way to Cushendun on Sunday. Lol

[ronan]

Last couple of showers here have been snow but just rattling through on a real gusty wind!

[ForeverPomeroysnow]

A skiff of snow covering the ground again, must have been a few showers last night

[ForeverPomeroysnow]

A wee covering again after most of the snow had thawed yesterday

[ronan]

Nice one Pom. Love wee surprises like that! Models still looking great this morning. Hopefully we don't see many downgrades. It looks like a classic northerly setting up with potentially something very cold and wintry setting in as we head in to February.

[ForeverPomeroysnow]

I seen that Ronan, as you say fingers crossed, although I am getting a bit fed up with all this snow

[ronan]

Lol.Not to often we hear of people getting fed up with snow. Well prepare yourself for plenty more if the models are telling the right storey.

Reverse psychology Ronan

[ForeverPomeroysnow]

The roads are awful this morning, worse than last week

[bobbarley]

I love it when posters on model thread mention N Ireland, snow and shovels in the same sentence!

[ForeverPomeroysnow]

Ohhh like that too bob must go and have a gander on the model thread

[stormforce 10]

omg   some stunning eye candy on the model charts this morning, i'm of to buy a sledge. oh yeah and a big shovel.

[ronan]

I've just had a look at the precip charts again and they look even better today with snow right out to the end of the run! I know we should take these with a pinch of salt but we can't ignore them either. Lol. Really looking forward to seeing how this develops now!

[ForeverPomeroysnow]

I sometimes think I enjoy the build up to a potential event rather than the actual event, must say something about my nature lol. Anyway if anyone is doing it don't forget the national big bird count is on this weekend, and no not the big yellow camp one out of sesame street

[ronan]

This has to be the best post of the winter so far!! Lol. Quality stuff!    

 

personally I have seen enough evidence to really not care either way as IMBY I won't see snowfall from anything other than an Easterly, if you live along the East Coast of England then I'd be getting excited about this, if you're in N.ireland I'd be getting my snow shovels ready
