    Any thunder forecast for this evening ? Clouds out there around Athlone are looking really convective-y.


    -edit-


    Just started to lash....you could kinda tell it had been building for about an hour or so....

    Very very dark skies west of Naas here now. Almost shelf cloud like structure


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,068 ✭✭✭Iancar29


    lightning flashes over the swords area, nice clear sky over me to view it :)


  • Registered Users Posts: 7,125 ✭✭✭pad199207

    Looks like that shower is intensifying as it heads towards Dublin.


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,157 ✭✭✭PukkaStukka


    Drove back from Skerries to Donabate in torrential rain with about 8 flashes from a truly apocalyptic looking sky. But the storm has now moved out over the sea and the lightning seems to have died with it. :(

    Met ie didn't forecast that, it;s since updated (19:37) with a risk of Thunder,obvious when it's on top of you!


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,660 ✭✭✭Darwin


    We had that front over us (Laois) about an hour ago, just heavy showers, nothing torrential. It has intensified quite a bit since then!


  • Registered Users Posts: 7,125 ✭✭✭pad199207


    Close to30mm has fallen from that now my back garden is flooded and the street outside has water coming up from the manholes


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,409 ✭✭✭Trebor176


    My sister in Naas described the thunder and lightning as mental. It's lashing now in Clondalkin, but I reckon that's about all we'll get.


  • Posts: 21,179 ✭✭✭✭ [Deleted User]


    28 miles south of Naas, not fair !


  • Registered Users Posts: 197 ✭✭notuslimited


    Here in Naas. That was the heaviest rain I can recall in my lifetime. Absolutely chucking it down and fork lighting to boot. Was collecting my son and 2 friends from K Leisure. All three were in awe. The words apocalypse, end of the world, Noah"s Ark, Cats and Dogs all got a mention.

    Lightning here in Dublin 16. 8 seconds to thunder.
