Lol I think I'll just keep an eye on my lamp post from here on in.

[snowmore]

Had two heavy snow showers this afternoon! Lasting about 10-15 mins each. Temp down to 1.4° in the showers. Wasn't expecting anything at all here today

[ronan]

Latest precip charts still looking of for Tuesday morning but not expecting much unless there are upgrades. Looks very short lived!

[sundog]

Overall atm the next week looks like a cold/very cold, dry and frosty week with pehaps some snow showers around up until midweek.

[Neiller22]

Yes perhaps snow showers but mostly dry. I really for the life of me cannot understand these metoffice warnings!

[Juuyoku]

Light snow here after some heavy hail showers today.

[ronan]

Same here with a light dusting from the last shower.

[sundog]

I know the gfs precip charts are not often the most accurate but fwiw the 18z run peps up the precip for tuesday morning.

[jello]

Noticed that myself.  Not looking to bad.  here's hoping it comes off. 

 

[ronan]

Definitely better the the last 2 runs!

[ronan]

Bit of a dusting here tonight but it's mostly hail. The last shower was of snow. Would be nice if the showers continued through the night.

[BIG LAD]

few snow showers earlier left a bit of a covering here. still a fair bit of thursdays snow in back garden has froze solid. some nice snow showers showing on radar now but look like missing me to the west.

[BIG LAD]

just had another light snow shower. for about 5 mins. left another few flakes!lol

[ronan]

By the looks of things nothing has really changed for Tuesdays snow. If we are still seeing this come the 12z today then it's game on And if the precip charts are to be believed then we should see a good 12 hours of snow. Here's hoping anyway.

[Abyss]

Snowing away outside. More snow than Thursday

[Neiller22]

Met eireann forecast completely changed again. Not much mention of snow. Met office mention rain or snow possible mon eve. Nobody really seems to have a clue at mo

[mountain shadow]

Given that we have had a prolonged Northerly airstream is it disappointing that snow showers have been far less widespread than anticipated. Donegal however seems to have done very well.

 

The snow event on Monday night into Tuesday is still there, perhaps delivering 5-10cm and around rush hour too. This might be the last chance of snow for some time perhaps until next Winter as a large anti-cyclone sits over us and doesn't look like going anywhere fast. It should still be cold at night and perhaps feeling pleasant in any prolonged sunshine.

[Neiller22]

Ooooo, there a bold statement MS ref no more snow to next winter bar mon-tues! I can see were u are coming from but think we will have a few mer chances. At least if we do get a wee bit of snow on the ground mon-tues it might hang around a bit due to high pressure. However I'm not convinced at all ref mon-tues. And I continue to question these warnings by met office. Very strange in my eyes.

[ronan]

Neiller models have stuck to their guns ref Tuesdays snow the last 3 runs and 06z has prolonged the snow slightly. At 40 hours out I would say this is nailed but I certainly agree with MS in any this could be the last snow for quite a while!!

[Weegaz]

The way winter has gone so far I'll beleive them went I see the snow in the ground!!

It is looking good at the minute!!

A few small flurries blowing through here today!!

[Neiller]

Hope your right but like weegaz I will believe it when I see it. Warnings last two days have been way off the mark for most. I see weds warning has gone. Yest they were talking about persistent snow pushing into Northern Ireland weds eve! Maybe it will come back maybe it won't. I'm just going to look out of window from now on. It's just as accurate at mo! Ha ha. Lovely day today mind you.

[stormforce 10]

plenty of snow around in the shade here. a few snow showers overnight. gonna be a cold one tonight.

[ronan]

Snow showers off and on all day here. First ice day in a while! Still looking good for Tuesday.

[Sparky72]

The met office forecasts seem to suggest Monday night showers will be heaviest to the east. Forecast is mainly dry for my location.

[snowmore]

A light snow shower just now left a dusting!
