It continues to be modelled tracking further South. You are just about in the heavy snow area.

[Sperrin]

Check out the lighting off the coast of Donegal, could be a good chance of widespread thunder snow!

At the minute it’s open but it’s a struggle to keep it operational I’m told. I’m supposedly working tonight if I get in so will know more then but their warning has been updated from earlier and this evening does not look very good at all!!
