I wanted 20 hours of snow though not 12!

We're right on the pivot point of that low though. Snow is piling up into drifts.

There looks like a few more hours of it, it’s tuned to light snow flakes here, if it was heavy precipation I would be buried here

[BIG LAD]

Still snowing here and wind is blowing the snow around so should be some nice drifts.

Dodgy enough commute home earlier this evening.  This is Belfast BT12/13

[gary1365]

Someone on another forum posted this from his commute, road from Hilltown to Rostrevor.

It's turned to snow in Limavady but its tiny flakes and light. It is trying to lie.

15cm to 20cm in places. Lovely. 

[Rocheydub]

Rain (very heavy) with a bit of sleet mixed in here. Orange warning my ass!

[Northwest NI]

Blizzard conditions here right now. Went from wet to white in about 15 minutes. Temperature 0.5 degrees.

Started to snow here and lie on grass and cars. Where I work is only 10-15 metres above sea level in north Dublin City centre. Roads still clear but deffo dropped temp in the last hour.

[snowydogh]

It’s been snowing since around 3pm in Mallusk … we’ve had nearly 7 inches. Just took the measuring tape out. I’m gobsmacked. It’s still snowing. 

[Rocheydub]

Snowed for about an hour and then stopped, everything was white, but now the thaw has started and the skies are clearing. Didn’t even get to chuck a snowball!

[Watsy]

Thats been as good as covering as we'd have for a good while. When out for a walk last night round the area and it was lovely then a load more snow has fallen overnight, easy 6 inches I'm sure.

Buried up in Carryduff. 

Schools shut so sledging later.
