Snow in dungiven according to Facebook. I thought it was snowing in Limavady earlier but couldn’t be sure.

Things have been quite here for the past while, definitely the calm before the storm

 

edit:- radar is packed with precipitation from the NW, wonder how much will be snow

I don’t like westerly winds they blow straight at my fragile very old garden gates. I have the wheelie bin pushed up against them to brace them but they’re at bursting point

Winds really picked up in the last 10 mins or so, rain is crazy

[gary1365]

Gate didn’t survive the night a couple of screws and fingers crossed it survives the rest of the storm.

Had no power today to work from home, so I decided a quick trip to Kerry to catch the huge waves and swells might be worthwhile...

Is everyone just fed up with snow or do you we not believe the weather warning for snow tomorrow night?

it looks promising, some of us should get a decent fall!

[ronan]

That's a Glenshane Road Trip on the way for me. 36cms and 10 for Derry. Lovely!

Ha ha. I don't believe it!

Well, it doesn't look do great over in the East but highish ground to the West looks decent. 

Don't forget to give us a few photos.

I’m due to fly back from Manchester tonight at 7.45. Flew to Leeds this morning and it was quite a breezy landing. Really hoping I don’t get stranded in Manchester - no overnight bag. But I’m also hoping I don’t have a horrible turbulent landing lol

You'll be fine.

Only gusting to 40mph at that point. We'll within parameters for a decent landing

Haha yea, I take my view from the great 16 century German meteorologist Snowvelt Wunderblizzard....." Till there is white on the ground I will continue to frown".

Current shower is a snowy hail mix ...but it is settling 

[gary1365]

I was driving back from Coleraine to dungiven before 5 and at the top of the hill and down into the pot the weather was wintery. I’m just back in from walking the dog and it doesn’t feel cold enough for snow but I spent all day outside working so maybe I’ve acclimatised to it . 

[gary1365]

How wrong was I currently snowing big fat flakes

[ronan]

Light snow here now but need shower activity to beef up a bit. Looking forward to a walk in the hills in the morning. 

[gary1365]

The showers are very fleeting but I don’t really want a pile of snow have to Dungiven to work and work outside all day tomorrow somewhere about the country. 

[Juuyoku]

Hopefully get some beefier showers soon! It's really cold out.

[bobbarley]

Anything that falls should be snow but unfortunately everything is fizzling out at the moment

 

[bobbarley]

Think I’ve struck gold. Constant streamers hitting here now, proper whiteout conditions at the minute
