Met Eireann Warning:

"Wednesday will be another breezy, humid and cloudy day. Spells of heavy rain in the west and northwest will extend to the east and southeast as the day goes on, and localised flooding may occur. Highest temperatures 17 to 19 degrees Celsius."

Just awoken by some torrential rain here in Galway. Looking at the latest radars, I can see why:

Met Eireann:

UKMO:

Looking at the latest models, it looks as if a many parts of Ireland could be subject to occasional bouts of moderate to heavy rain at times being pumped up from the South Southwest from now until Friday morning. All areas at risk, with locally high rainfall totals in places.

Latest High Resolution Limited Area Model 24hr rainfall forecast from 7.00am this morning until 7.00am Friday morning:

Perhaps some interesting weather ahead for some over the next 36hrs!
