Whiteout here in Cill Dara. Best sneachta in yonks.
Will take a few snaps before it gets washed away.

Looks like the GFS had the best handle on this from a few days ago. UKMO had a bit of a nightmare.
For those who see snow, enjoy.

Wild here in Naas. This must be the most all island event in a long time, as in every where is really stormy at the same time.

20 minute walk home from the pub. Serious cold out there. Was grand walking down but half way going back I felt like I made a big mistake.

How long does the ukmo take to load, seems to take longer than usual?

So has the GFS been ahead of the game?, a lot of egg on face if so.

If you find this period of model watching "boring" you need to move on from meteorology.
Eh? You're making up stuff now. I'm loving it, great upgrades last 24 hours.

I prefer ecm over ukmo. We don't want dry and bitter, we want cold and snowy!! Choices
Good luck with getting snow at -1 uppers in cork at 192.

Surely ECM cannot go wrong from here!
Always finds a mild sector from nowhere. Thrash model.

Meteociel has stopped on the gefs at T264 so we don’t see the members T270-T320 where some would no doubt remain cold cyclonic
Yes I really wanted to see member 21 that gave 2 foot of snow on wetterzentrale.

What’s wrong with some of you… your saying this exact thing but then being told about toughs etc forming and your still posting silly things sometimes when in a situation like this it’s best to just get the cold in first and deal with that later with all that said just getting this sort of cold is an amazing start to winter what we haven’t seen in so many years
Last year was cold in December, maybe a week later.

I'm curious why so many keep saying these are the best early winter charts for years/best start to winter.
Was I hallucinating last year? It's been a year. One year since a good start to winter. And the model output for the above began in November too, and there were plenty of runs which showed potential of an even better spell of weather. The charts from last year rival nearly anything popping up currently, unfortunately we just did not get all the hoped embedded features so many didn't see snowy conditions. But still, you can't even argue that last years spell wasn't as good, because this years hasn't even happened yet and could end up even worse (or better, who knows). Some snow, prolonged cold, ice days...coldest spell of December weather since 2010.
It's been tossed around so much the last week and it's a bit funny. I wouldn't say it (Dec 22 spell) was classic at all here in Ireland, but given nothing has happened yet it would be strange to say that this is the best start to winter since 2010. But hey, different strokes.
Was just thinking similar few days back.
Last December ( earltly to mid) the temperature didn't get above 2 Celsius for 10 days. Didn't see a flake but it was cold.

It would just be our typical rotten luck in the UK that we are in the middle of the biggest -50% or more region in the entire world
Tbf -50% of nothing is pretty much the same.

It's just started snow here. Doesn't look like it will last long but nice to see.

The temperature didn't go above 2 Celsius for 12 days and I didn't see a snowflake. It's tough to get snow here.

Last 2 hours has been nuts here. If this had came a few weeks earlier 25cm easily would have stuck.
