Temperatures will become 'unusually cold' next week - but it's still unclear whether it'll snow

The UK’s Met Office has warned of snow but an Irish expert says the risk of snow here is ‘still uncertain’.

TEMPERATURES ARE LIKELY to drop next week as a period of cold weather settles on the country – though for how long, and whether it could bring snow, remains unclear. 

Met Éireann has cautioned that sudden stratospheric warming – a weather event that can cause significant temperature drops, though not always – casts uncertainty over the overall forecast for the coming weeks.

“A sudden stratospheric warming is ongoing, which adds a high degree of uncertainty to the overall forecast,” Met Éireann has said.

The forecaster said that the overall outlook from seasonal models is that spring will be slightly above average temperatures with an average amount of rainfall.

March, however, and possibly the beginning of April are expected to be cooler and drier than average, with a “transition to warmer and wetter conditions for May”.

A sudden stratospheric warming (SSW) event, which occurs when temperatures rise rapidly in the stratosphere well above the earth’s surface, is capable of causing a spell of cold weather in northern Europe.

Major SSW events can increase the chances of cold weather in Ireland, though not as a guarantee. The ‘Beast from the East’ snowfall in 2018 emerged from a SSW event combined with Storm Emma, while the ‘Big Freeze’ in 2010 was also caused by sudden stratospheric warming. 

Alan O’Reilly of Carlow Weather explained that a high pressure system that brought reasonably settled weather to Ireland in recent days is expected to move upwards towards Greenland from around the weekend into early next week, with much colder air moving down over Ireland from a north-easterly direction.

“There’s still a bit of uncertainty around the details and where exactly that high pressure moves and how far the cold air comes down and exactly how cold it gets, but it does look like there’s an increased risk of a cold, northerly plunge,” O’Reilly said, speaking to The Journal.

He explained that the cold spell could last just three or four days or it could persist for longer.

“That’s the uncertain part at the moment. What’s also uncertain is just how cold it gets and is there a risk of any snow,” he said.

“Some of the weather models do show a risk of some snow showers around Tuesday next week, but really this far out, that’s very difficult to forecast.” 

The UK Met Office has warned that snow could be on the way to some areas of Britain if weather patterns follow the current forecast.

However, O’Reilly cautioned that parts of England and Scotland can sometimes experience much colder weather and snow without the same conditions being reached in Ireland at the same time.

“In these scenarios, sometimes while Britain would see a lot of snow and cold, we might end up not seeing the cold as strong or not seeing as much snow,” he said. 

He added that the weather event is “not the Beast from the East” but a “northerly plunge of air”.

“The first day of March is the first day of spring, meteorological spring, so it is going to be unusually cold and I’m sure people won’t like the extra heating bills that it’s going to generate.

“But let’s not compare it to the Beast from the East 2018. It’s not looking like that type of event at the moment.”

    @John Fahy: Oh grow a pair. We do not need to run scared of the toddler. Remove the makeup and this is an old and ill man. I doubt he’ll make the full term. You think Trump holds more power than he does. He talks a big game, makes threats and achieves nothing. You assume that the corporations will all play ball and jump when he says how high. Just like his wall, it’s mostly bluster and as members of the EU we are not fighting alone. If anything Trump might end up creating more solidarity.

    I’d worry far more about the climate he is creating. Dumbing down the discourse to an unprecedentedly stupid level, making attacks and threats against decent journalists seem acceptable. Add in his racism, misogyny, climate denial and the symbolism of having a convicted predator in the top job, and yeah, he can do massive damage there. It’s still quite amazing than an actual sex pred has managed to garner this level of support. Unthinkable not that long ago.

    @Mary.E.: Agreed. The glaring problem with Trump and Musk and all their sycophants, is how allergic they are to basic facts. Like the multi-account frustrated men around here, they believe that something popping into their head makes it true. As fearful as I am about the far right and the creep of fascism, we have some hope. Trump’s ideas rarely ever survive contact with reality. The wall is the most obvious example. Nothing happened. They repaired a small stretch of tall railings and added a bit of fence! There is no wall. There will be no wall. Equally all of his tariffs and threats are likely to either dissipate or create untold pain in the US.

    Interesting that the bully and pervert is now threatening to kill more innocent Muslim children today. It’s almost like he knows there’s a wad of promises he won’t be able to keep and is lining up a distraction already.

    You are of course right. He’s not just the worst President in waiting, he’s one of the worst humans occupying the planet right now. A dangerous elite rich kid riling up the gullible. It’s truly amazing they think the most transparently selfish man on the planet cares a jot for people he views as ‘losers’. Oh well, they’ll just have to learn a painful lesson. Although it’s highly debatable whether they’ll have the wit or savvy to understand the lesson on offer.

As if they want some pure factual conversation happening. It’s about destroying any sense of reality where we have certain facts as a baseline. Verifiable, researched, evidence based stuff. It’s about destroying this idea and flooding the space with bad actors and propaganda to manipulate people into supporting the worst people imaginable, acting against the best interests of humanity as a whole.

    Trumpism wouldn’t have worked even 25 years ago. The a la carte world of believing any old nonsense because it feels good is manna from heaven for these guys. You are being played by highly organised groups and manipulators who don’t care a jot about the noble aspect of free speech. They just want a completely deregulated media and social media space where they can spread lies and propaganda to their hearts content. Divide and conquer.

    @SerotoninWars: The current administration failed to provide a better alternative to what you have just ( pretty accurately) described. And that is why Trump is getting another term of office.
    Clearly, the democrats’ agenda does not jive well with the American electorate, so much so that they would rather see a scoundrel like Trump in the Oval Office, and have his cronies dominate the house and senate.
    The solution is simple; provide the electorate with a better alternative.

    The main problem that I have with Harris saying that is if Trump said a similar thing, everyone knows right well that the media over here would throw a hissy fit at how Trump is “denigrating Irish politics” and how he’s “behaving in a manner unbecoming of a President.” I’d bet my bottom dollar that Trump wouldn’t be allowed to simply walk it off and say he was “just joking around” when speaking about Harris if he threw a verbal jab back. In any case, the reason that this still hangs over Harris is because it was extremely unprofessional to begin with to go onto a major radio station and start insulting the incumbent leader of one of our main trading and business partners.

It’s clear to anyone who follows the news even slightly that members of various cable television networks enjoy picking out and giving out about even the slightest thing that Trump says online. Every single insult or joke that he’s pulled out has been scrutinised by a wide variety of different channels. By the way, if you had even basic understanding of the US Constitution, you would know that Trump can’t be censured by Congress for throwing insults because they are protected under the First Amendment.

There are 8 major news channels that are Democrat-leaning and there are only 2 major news channels that are Republican-leaning. 88% of journalists donate to Democrat politicians. All you are doing is engaging in pure whataboutism and you know it. I didn’t ask you about what Biden’s relationship with the media was (very cosy as you know), I asked how you can seriously believe that Donald Trump gets a fair shake when it comes to the news coverage that he receives. I don’t know whether you know basic maths, but 88% is a bigger number than 12% and 8 is a bigger number than 2. It’s pretty clear though that you’re quite the clown considering you think that Congress could have censored Trump!

    @Frank O’Hara: Trump says and does stupid things unbecoming of a president constantly Frank, you and I both know this even though you won’t admit to it. Even if a news channel reports on it factually with no bias it looks negative. News channels don’t need to spin stories on him negatively to make him look bad, he does it himself through his words and actions. Also, if you don’t think he plays up to the perceived bias against him in the media, you are very naive. Fostering a siege mentality against the media and the democrats is how he has gained a lot of his support.

    Between this and the occupied territories bill ( which will do SFA for Palestinians or peace) they’ve really backed us into a corner. I was less than enthused by the announcement from various politicians over the weekend that Ireland can expect there to be a fair bit of economic turbulence ahead. Trump is brittle and doesn’t forget a slight. His team are looking for ways to take our FDI billions back to the US. Let’s not make it easy for them.

    ‘Many within the new Trump administration’s appointees also see Ireland as a problem. Trump’s trade tsar Robert Lighthizer has said “Ireland gets a substantial part of the tax revenue that would normally be due to the US government” and this is a “transfer of wealth from us to them”. Howard Lutnick, nominee to head the US commerce department, said “it’s nonsense that Ireland of all places runs a trade surplus at our expense … When we end this nonsense, America will be a truly great country again.”’

Listening to Trump today he’s in no mood for kidnapping terrorists or their apologists (and as not one Palestinian in Gaza has come forward with information on the whereabouts of a hostage despite the $5m reward then they are just as complicit, as they were when celebrating and disrespecting hostages and the dead on the streets of Gaza on Oct 7th).

Your paranoid fantasies about Muslims taking over the UK and launching a Nuclear strike at the US has no basis in fact either.

This guy will use the 17th March to publicly insult and embarrass us (ministers and Taoisigh don’t do embarasment) and make us a laughing stock world wide. Meanwhile all our Minsiters and musical chairs Taoisigh will be bending over and taking one for Ireland

    @Thomas O’Donnell: I despise Trump, but the reality is that more American citizens voted for him this time than the alternative candidates. 49% approx. of the popular vote and a 1.5% margin over Harris. So he’s their choice (as crazy as that is). Also, the reality is that other countries have to deal with Trump and his cronies, so they have to act like adults and keep relations as constructive as they can….regardless of the awful gowl’s own 8 year old toxic vengeful mentality.

    I think we should refuse to partake in this for the next 4 yrs,or probably less,as I definitely can’t see this joker Trump lasting.

    @Numinous20111:
    Trump had the American economy roaring, and not a war in sight. Then Biden and the Democrats got in, destroyed the economy, started a proxy war with Russia, gave billions to Ukraine and Israel while their own are on the streets. You keep believing msm. Funny how a wee bit of false tan can upset some people.

    @Father Ted: Well, you see, there’s the small issues of what Trump said publicly, which torpedoes your cookie-cutter pro-Trump argument. Then there’s the other small matters of the statistics, reports and public announcements of Trump’s administration between 2017 and 2021. Then there’s the statements of Trump’s administration officials……you get the idea. You are at best pulling arguments out of thin air. The factual information from Trump and the GOP contradict you. Pick up a booby prize on your way out.

    @Father Ted: the American economy is currently booming, and it wasn’t ‘roaring’ spontaneously the second Trump took office in 2017. He was riding the coat tails of the steady growth under Obama, and he had tanked it by the end of his term. The wars weren’t in sight because he signed legislation so he didn’t have to report on them. He bombed Syria, he backed Saudi’s to the hilt against Yemen, his drone strikes in 4 years doubled Obama’s in 8. Russia started a war with Ukraine, and if you think that the backing of Israel is going to stop when Trump takes office you are even more clueless than I thought.

    So we can comment on this name calling, but not on Trump re naming the Panama Canal? Someone please explain the why and why not of this to me.
