    Huge storm just passed our way (Donabate, North Co. Dublin) just over 1/2 an hour ago - came and went in 10-15 mins but featured some of the loudest and angriest weather I'd ever encountered,- thunderclaps that sounded like they were literally ripping the sky in two and lightning that, - while I couldn't see the forks for the mist and fog - lit up the whole area in pure white for at least a full second at a time. It was fairly breathtaking.

    Cracking little storm! It's the first time in years that I have been woken by a thunderstorm. Dropped over 30mm of rain here.

    Like others woken about 4 by heavy rain and thunder; at least I thought it was heavy at the time but a few minutes later it sounded as if it had got twice as heavy! Min of 15.2C last night.

    Nothing exciting down here, a period of heavy rain but no bangs or crashes. Dry and quiet now.

    Dublin 14 - Same about 4am

    It was right over us - lightening and thunder together

    I have never heard anything so lound and the lightening was blinding - like when you look into a flash on a camera ... couldn't see for a second after it!

    All our sockets went and the pedestrian/street lights outside our house are gone. Car and house alarms galore. Our internet is down (have a line of sight mast on our roof to Three Rock but doubt it hit that) and a PC blown!

    Seriously freaked me out but was absolutely amazing!!!

    Do you think that's it or are we due some more?
