Will you come down and cut mine?

[StormyWeather28]

Wanted to haha above but they removed it? Seriously looking for some interesting weather be it a storm or snow the monotony is killing me lol. 

[mountain shadow]

What a cracking day today. Out wondering the town with no coat this afternoon.

[parrotingfantasist]

Feels very freakish. Daffodils are out in full bloom, some spring flowers out and bees to accompany them... They'll be in for a shock when things return to 'normal' service.

[StormyWeather28]

It's been a while

 

[ForeverPomeroysnow]

No thanks Stormy

Hope they're shivering shortly and barely able to fly in a blizzard

Would take tonight's GFS 18z parallel. Has decent sneachta just a week away, one to watch.

[parrotingfantasist]

Freakishly warm out there!

[emmett garland]

looks like high ground in leinster will likely see heavy wet snow as the afternoon draws to a close and maybe low levels too as storm freya moves into the irish sea as rainfall rates will be quite high 5/6mm/h in the greater Dublin area between 5-8pm .Hopefully temperatures drop rapidly during this phase as the northerly takes hold.

[O'Maille80]

First snow I seen all winter now. 

[O'Maille80]

Getting heavy.

[O'Maille80]

[O'Maille80]

Absolutely milling down now with big fluffy flakes. What a nice surprise.

[Rocheydub]

Chucking down huge flakes here and trying desperately to stick. 

[O'Maille80]

2 inches lying on the ground. Hasn't stopped for over 3 hours and heavy too.

Very nice.

A balmy 10c on the other side of the Irish sea

Enjoy.

Currently sat on a plane at Dublin airport which is having to get de-iced because of the snow which has come down in the last hour - now I can see out of the windows again looks like it’s settled pretty readily

All that time with no snow in the SE & get a surprise event in Ireland

Here's a good site to look at the current situation across the whole of the ROI. https://www.tiitraffic.ie/cams/

Not sure why people are saying its a surprise. Matt Hugo in a tweet mentioned this possibility yesterday and the Met Office graphics in their forecasts posted on Youtube suggested snow possibilities for parts of Ireland.
