Lots of reports of trees down around this area, take it handy if out and about on the roads tonight/tomorrow 

[BIG LAD]

power back on here after 3 hours off. winds have settled a bit now.

[somofagun]

That was a wild one. Thought slates were gona go.

ECM is pretty rubbish in terms of snow. Dry fest mostly. Give me a Greenie high any day over this.

Showing dry at the min but it’s a long way out to be predicting snow from it. That will be a day to day basis. But what will be will be I’m afraid.

Yes precipitation does look a bit dry but I'll always take the cold and sun over the stuff we had last night thats for sure. We just need a stalling atlantic front and we'll be buried with those uppers.

Some eyecandy on this fine Wednesday morning. A long way out but keeps the interest. Personally i don't like an Easterly but some times we all can do good in a battleground setup. All to play for and plenty of winter left. 

[Neiller22]

The wind seems to be really picking up again? Pretty rough outside

It's a very messy day pretty rough as you say Neiller

[mountain shadow]

I have to say looking at the model output that Ireland could see a very good battleground situation next week as the Atlantic pushes in from the South West next week into hopefully already embedded cold air.

Fingers crossed.

That would be very nice.

Model thread about to go into the usual meltdown because one set of runs are not as good as this morns. Easterly not looking as clear cut now. They just never learn as they are so hard to get nowadays. 

[Guest]

Our only saviour is a front meeting cold uppers. The latter is in question..

They really do love there easterlys in the mod thread  give me a greeny high anyday.

[mountain shadow]

Far less stress with a Greenie high that's for sure.

I fear for the health of some in the model thread if the ECM backs off tonight!

Tune in about 6.20 for a laugh.

"The ECM  downgrades, victory to the GFS"

or

"Booooom chart, ECM is a snow dream for the SE, GFS is cannon fodder"

or

"Great a mid latitude high, after all that, yawn...."

Just what we needed! Cold uppers, big potential for snow in battleground scenario shown on ECMWF!

If only this was set in stone Boofer. Likely a lot of changes before day 10

[Neiller22]

unfortunately it will change a good bit by then but here’s hoping

Haha there were a few goodies but this was best countrywide all we can do is hope upon hope that we can get something half as good as this.

I am liking the METO's latest video forecast. Mentions several times the likelihood of things staying cold until at least the middle of January with several attempts of the Atlantic trying to move in against the cold air.
