It’s because it happened west of the Shannon. Had the same events adversely affected Cork it would have gotten some coverage but if it’s the west coast/North Munster/Connacht, it’s not news worthy unless someone dies. I know there is a fair difference in population despite West-East but we deserve the same level of coverage over here in the west. The ironic thing is has this hastened in Dublin not only would there have been extra warnings, but dedicated news coverage and every other Rte radio host would have spoke about the crazy lightening for at least 5 minutes and Clare Byrne would have had the Carlow weather guy or an ME representative to talk about lightening. The difference is stark.

The desktop and mobile forecasts for the same location simultaneously have quite a few differences… 🙄

I was wondering whether to go sunbathing on the beach or not 😉

I've been neutral towards the new site since the beginning compared to many that have straight up hated it but it seems to be getting worse. I like all the additional pages they've been adding such as the Summer and Storm Centres but could it not be better organised? I shouldn't have to zoom out the site just to see the entire submenu.
