Btw, picked these up off the model thread. Looks good for Sunday on pub run.

Fax chart showing us in Ulster north of the front so staying on the cold side and the precipitation charts looking really good!

Haven't been near the model thread but going by BBC forecasts etc I reckon some areas will get pasted on Sunday!!

Watch the live radar. It is developing!! If it hits that will bring thunder and lightning. There is lightning just north of the Isle of Man at the minute but what we have to our north is a lot more intense. It is moving SSE

Hold the press! Winters precipitation in my locality??? super duper no.. it’s drizzling rain! Madness. Good night

I reckon it will track down the East coast or slightly inland. That's only if it doesn't lose intensity as it moves down.

[jello]

Hopefully im in the path lol.   Got a good 5cm here already and coming down thick and fast again now

[Juuyoku]

I think it'll go down the east and I'll flip some tables

Yeah inland areas doing well tonight so far as the precip seems to be slowing the further south it gets.. Not so good here in the north.

Just heard thunder here! Snow lying on the cars and a wee bit on the grass 

 

[Rocheydub]

Not a fu**##* flake, not 1!!!! Precipitation just didn’t carry this far, got to the Dublin border and died!!!

Winter wonderland UP here this morning 

[Rocheydub]

Horrendous disappointment here. We got a frost! Despite the strong wind, it didn’t carry this far. Think I’ll start to desire dry warm weather instead.

the photos are deadly looking, keep them coming, ya lucky sods!

[Neiller22]

Does anybody have a clue what’s going to happen Sunday! It shifted north/ then south / then north etc etc in the model thread discussion? Met office text this morning  rain or  snow chance. ?

That was a chilly walk home through the heavy snow. It's been on and off all night but now it's constant and fluffy and setting on the roads  

I've gotta be up for 3pm but I also have to look out my window for the next while! 

Feels very festive here 

[BIG LAD]

id say around 2 or 3 inches here.

[ronan]

Was expecting to get up to a good covering. Absolutely crap!! Only a bit of a dusting on the ground. 

[Sperrin]

Deadly, text has just came through to say school is shut today and it's a winter wonderland outside. Easily 3-5 inches in places and drifting as well.
