Oh I do love a good rain. Looking forward to this so I am.

kylith

I wasn't too worried still I read this thread, now I'm having conniptions about my bin. Should have taken the opportunity to dump my Greyhound ones somewhere, 'Honest, they just blew away'.

Rabidlamb

Wife just rang to say it's bedlam here on the east coast.
Her pajamas got soaked after dropping Sennin to school, almost slipped on the sill of the 4x4.

Boardnashea

Bit grey but all is well in the whest:D

End of the fukcing world stuff here. I actually got up and put my cycling gear on. I am off and i hoped to cycle the coast road. To chances of that happening. No wonder Stephen Roche took the drugs option.

My umbrella snapped in half

Agricola

The rain is very wet today.

gustafo

Get the clothes out in the line, there is mighty drying there.

Tonyandthewhale

It's warm, dry and calm where I am... indoors.

Weather's for homeless people and squirrels and such.

The ring came off my pudding can.

Gyalist

Just walked past Lidl in Rathmines and they have lots of small sandbags in the entrance lobby of the store. I guess that they are being prudent as they suffered serious flooding last October.

Just put the cat out in that weather for 10 mins. It won't care about food... it will just be happy to be let back in again!

Hal1

The cause for concern with this weather system was it stalling over leinster. This would lead to spot flooding, and we all remember the last time the east got flooded. Latest sat pic here: http://www.sat24.com/gb

Snowie

im in the sunny south east its not so sunny but its no treally that gray just over cast and windy... hardly calls for a great storm .....

Africa

Very light rain all morning and a bit windy here in swords co. dublin but I can't imagine any flooding here today as it has being only dribbling down. Can't see much change for the foreseeable day.

Looks like this low pressure system is a bit of a weakling.
