A nice new thread for any weather discussion in Ireland. As ever, keep it civil and broadly on topic

[ronan]

Good one about time we had a new thread, hopefully a lot to discuss.

[skywatcher]

We're always civil but we sometimes define on topic more broadly than in the other threads.

So back in from work (part time job as well at weekends) and I tell u what its bloddy cold out there tonight.

 

What is the craic peeps any more updates??

[ronan]

So the roller coaster continues this morning with the models! Some prozac needed later today for some me thinks!!

[Sparky72]

Aye that's some downgrade.! How can there be that big a swing in the models?

[ronan]

They do this sparky when a cold spell is showing so far out! GFS is away off on one but the ECM looking good! Expect loads more changes!

[ForeverPomeroysnow]

up and down round and round - rollercoaster emotions today methinks (whenwilltheyeverlearnsmiley)

It happened with the last cold spell but I think the gfs is wrong this time and it will be back on board again. Edited November 30, 2013 by smithyweather

Actually the 0z isn't even that much of a downgrade for me, more cork.

It still has snow for me on Friday.

[smithyweather]

Happy days has just said 'well out to friday and the only places with snow potential are scotland and perhaps the hills of northern ireland'. Sorry babe but the gfs is showing -9c uppers with 2c maxes and snow right down to sea level; perhaps the hills

Removing borderline personal remarks

[gary1365]

again i'll be waiting 4-5 days before i get my hopes up too much

[ronan]

Still looking Ok! Albeit a bit East! Expecting upgrades again on the 12z!

[smithyweather]

aw aye not cold enough for snow. Aye you mean the south of england, hate it when they give a biased unrepresentative view of how things really are.

[smithyweather]

Why wait to Saturday? The snow comes on Friday morning in the early hours. So approximately 6 days away. If it is still there tomorrow then that is 5 days away.

 

EDIT: now gibby has started a big rant about how its not going to happen as if it is impossible. Eugh get over it

the sun is shining .. it's a beautiful day and we need a moan and ramp thread for Ireland. First proof of 'mastery' is living in the present not wishing away weeks waiting for a wet flake of snow . 

  Get out and don't come in 'till dark !

[smithyweather]

Its cloudy as hell here.

[sundog]

Lovely clear morning here,a nice treat after all the cloudy dull weather we have had recently.A bit chilly,nice and fresh ,temp 5.5c,last nights low 3.4c.

[ronan]

My nerves are wrecked waiting on this run!! Epic charts on the way!! Eyes down! 

[ronan]

[be cause]

 In fact why not hang around until Spring ?
