Looking an "interesting" weather day on Tuesday, probs GFS over hyping that low and its where abouts though?

[Weegaz]

Ah, it’s good to be back, been flat out at the minute but been reading in the background, hopefully we get this forum lit up again soon with some of the weather we all cherish…….snoowwwwww

Took a little trip up the Galtees yesterday. Half decent covering in the top 150 m or so.

Interesting ice

   

 

Saw this odd rainbow ring too looking towards the Glen of Aherlow from the summit.

My favourite place to go hiking, especially when it's mid winter and conditions are too bad for most other people to bother!

[ForeverPomeroysnow]

Looking a dangerous for south and west coasts of Ireland tomorrow with a red warning out ☹

[ForeverPomeroysnow]

Sleety showers atm, would imagine bit more snowy anywhere with elevation?

[BIG LAD]

Had wet snow shower earlier which left a bit of slush. First falling snow of the season for me.

[Weegaz]

Stay safe tomorrow folks, especially those in the red zones

[Rocheydub]

All school in the south are now closed for tomorrow as Met E are saying the red warning area will likely increase and not decrease. Glad I'm off tomorrow!

[Donegal]

Hello again. Hope you're all well.

Rough day tomorrow, focus is obviously on the red alert areas but there could be a surprise in the NW. Western Ulster and North Connacht snow risk tomorrow morning. Blizzard conditions if it comes off, high routes above 200m most likely but a chance of something more widespread lower down.

Wet snow from about 5am outside of Omagh, melting as soon as it hits the ground though, no wind as if yet.

[Donegal]

Snowing. Everywhere white.

[BornFromTheVoid]

Sounds wild out, but nothing too exceptional so far.

Air pressure on my little netatmo is down to 979hPa now

[mountain shadow]

Not a pleasant morning at all. Very wet and windy.

Of course it has to be bin recycling day!

[Frostbite1980]

Just popped in here to say keep safe peeps you have a rough day ahead 

[Weegaz]

Wind is strong already, rain is heavy and blustery, stay safe folks

[ForeverPomeroysnow]

Roads a slushy mess earlier with lots of surface water, wind has picked up rightly  now, stay safe folks

[Donegal]

It didn't take long for the snow to melt today. Was only 3cm, I'm low altitude though.
