UK met office have issued a yellow warning for all of NI on Saturday, looks pretty decent too, although they mention snow turning to rain in afternoon.

Here is a link to @radiohead post from model thread. Looks like we'll hang on to the cold in the North before it moves back across all of Ireland. Genuinely crazy charts there on the pub run. Imagine if it verified! Really hope those fronts push in and stall later next week!

Little bit of better news from the 6z?

Some interesting thoughts from Met Eireann here... Met Éireann on 'high alert' as snow expected next week WWW.RTE.IE Met Éireann has said it is on "high alert" for the second half of next week, as significant snow is expected.

Just to back up your point Summer Snow...

Snowing quite heavy here now and sticking well, a degree or so cooler last night and we could have had a huge fall. Story of the winter?

Uh oh...pub run has burst a few bubbles over in the model thread. Its amazing how the IMBY bias works in terms of people dismissing runs that don't work to their area's advantage. @booferking and @radioheadcalling out a few home truths

Same as that BigLad, hours or heavy to moderate snow and just too warm to lay. Any word on precipitation rates overnight?

Definitely increasing in intensity here, flakes getting bigger as well. Grassy areas getting whiter.

Flakes getting bigger and heavier

Getting heavier here now and beginning to settle, very fine flakes though.

Coming down heavier now, still not sticking yet. Anyone any thoughts on the intensity of the precipitation as the day progresses. Appears to be a decay in intensity as it's heading north.

Its snowing here, nothing too heavy yet though!! Still in the lighter echos of radar but this looks to be coming much further North. Looking like Met Eireann called this one over Met UK.

Euro4 going for it in ulster, showing prolonged wintry weather from late tomorrow afternoon right through to Monday, especially in W Ulster.

Sorry @Rocheydub, couldn't resist! Will be interesting to see what happens tomorrow morning, met.ie have the precipitation moving well into Ulster whereas the met UK have it struggling to reach Ulster.

Amazing the power of Twitter!

Latest from BBC, somewhere in Ireland going to be seeing snow on Sunday...

Hopefully it comes off!!

Temp rose to -0.1 an hour ago but has fallen back half a degree since. Will be touch and go with this front moving through as I'm just a couple of metres shy of the 200m mark. On another note, does anyone have this wee weather station? Its got temp but not sure if it does dewpoint, accidentally dumped the manual!

Anybody care to sum up the models for coming week? Don't have the energy to trawl the model page!

Snowing very lightly here now, heavier stuff not too far away. We'd a couple of cms overnight.

Good man @mountain shadow!! As they say over here, keep 'er lit!

Nice heavy band moving through Magherafelt area and appears to be drifting NE to SW, hoping it comes this way. Looks great just North of Belfast! Disappointed in lack of photos ladies and gentlemen, come on?!!

Looks like Belfast going to get hammered in next half an hour or so, big shower just off the coast at the min.

Seeing twitter reports of Dublin snow...poor lad has probably fainted
