The Cashel Cockney

Passing snow showers in Dualla since 9.30am, 6km outside Cashel. Starting to stick.

Woke to a light covering this morning, heavy snow shower passing at the moment.

Light covering here 6km east of Cashel.

Snowing in the Kill Hills 6km outside Cashel, Co. Tipp. Had our first shower about an hour ago, more inbound on the radar.

Just had a more prolonged shower, that's more like it!

Just the odd flurry down here today.

Snowing here and settling on the cars.

Awoke at 2am this morning and decided to stick my head around the curtain. There was a nice covering of snow on the grass and cars. Went back to bed and a few minutes later heard rain against the window and of course it was gone this morning. Neighbour thought I must have been dreaming! Helps that I have a little elevation here at c.140m above sea level.

Just back online after having power, water & telephone knocked out by the storm at 1.30pm on Wednesday. Worst I'd seen since 1987 when I lived in London.

Winds picking up here with heavy wintery showers.

Light sprinkling of snow on cars & roof tops this morning with occasional flurries.

Wind & rain picking up big time here in the south of Ireland.

Lived in Cahir from 2000 to 2004 and can't remember ever seeing the park in that condition!

The main concern for the coming weekend will be the threat of coastal flooding with the onset of high spring tides and possible stormy conditions.

Just went out back for some fuel for the fire and to my surprise snow has started to settle. Just a light dusting.
