Ireland has been characterized by unstable weather in recent months and has already been hit by three storms – Agnes, Ciaran and Debbie, reports The Mirror.
As the winter months approach, long-range weather maps are beginning to indicate the possibility of snow in some parts of the country.
This prompted a meteorologist to issue a reminder of the increased unpredictability of the forecast, which is often intermittent and changing due to the dynamic nature of the atmosphere.
On Wednesday, Alan O’Reilly shared a video update of the upcoming weather on his popular Carlo Weather social media accounts.
He explained: “The GFS weather model this morning did show some wintry weather over us. The 5cm would have been on the top of Lugnaquilla, even on their charts, top of Wicklow Mountains. But the next update shows the cold weather is nowhere near us,” reports The Mirror.
“There is a chance of some colder weather coming towards the end of the month, yeah there is, but it’s a chance, it may not come near us at all and it may just be cool. The chances of snow is very, very, very slim and trying to forecast that is pretty much impossible at the moment that far out, so I don’t think I’ll be stocking up on snow boots just yet,” he added, reports The Mirror.
