I expect you will see some snow showers rattle through at your elevation ASL courtesy of a brisk westerly flow. 

 

 

Cheers Daniel

hello again folks , on a wild night but locally nothing like as wet as last evening . Lost my identity on the internet so am having to start again ..  the past has been denied me by google ! Good job I'm enjoying the ever present weather !

 

[ForeverPomeroysnow]

Good to see you back because 

[Weegaz]

Where's all the rain at?

Not a bad thing as ground is already saturated

[ronan]

Still look good for something wintry on NYE

[bobbarley]

Ronan it's backtracking all the time, you're on the borderline now in Derry

 

[ronan]

Yeah it has definitely downgraded slightly from earlier but i wouldn't take these precip charts as gospel as they change all the time. I only posted as am clutching at straws and hoping for a bit of snow  

[ronan]

Interesting!! Only the second time ever that the North Pole has got above freezing!!

[ronan]

Check the radar its on its way.

[weatherobsuk]

Interesting that the RADAR has freezing-rain across a wide area of the Irish Sea.

[ronan]

Funnily the snow and ice chart was showing ice in the same area

Twas a wild night hopefully we all came through unscathed and no damage done.  The model thread is starting to fatigue me again with its swings from high to low lol

Cork Airport now at 365.5mm of rain up to the 29th, a new record for the most rain in any month for a Met Eireann synoptic station.

We have a large wooden table outside the back that's remained steadfast through all the storms so far, but the wind just flipped it over in the last 2 minutes!

You mean from low to low to low surely? Lol

No end to the wet and windy regime in sight.

The sting low do you think born?

[ForeverPomeroysnow]

Your right Mountain low to low to low, hopefully this much anticipated mid January switch around happens if even for just a dry week!!!

[Weegaz]

A serious amount of flooding this morning. Never seen so much lying water in fields and roads around home.

[cue_killar]

The road was flooded on way home this morning. I love the sound of all that rain on the roof at work though.

I just bought my first home last month but haven't moved in yet while I'm getting some work done to it. I hope it's still standing after that night lol 

[ronan]

My fathers fence in the back garden is wrecked. 3 support posts completely snapped! 40 foot tree not looking to steady either. Definitely a wild night!

[Neiller22]

I think the met office update will change this morning from there positive trend for gold yest. Charts are awful this morn. Rain after rain and storm after storm ! Least it's cold rain. !! 

[Weegaz]

Some sleet showing on radar down Galway direction, possibly a cold front following up storm?

[BornFromTheVoid]

Flooding in Graiguenamanagh, Kilkenny.
