Definitely breaking up a bit. Just light drizzle now. I am going to walk the dogs by the sea :pac:

I'm currently visiting relatives on the Southside of Galway Bay this weekend and all I can tell you is that it is bleeding " throwing" it down! :-D
Should have stayed in the big Shmoke!!!!

Not much room left under that bridge, I'd say.

Mines situated on open ground and mounted at a height of 1 meter
A rooftop is not the ideal spot Storm 10 but if you have no other option...,
Some info for you here

Rain will be pushing into the southwest again Sunday evening after a brief dry spell.



Monday will also be a wet day.



Overnight Tuesday into Wednesday morning may see more rain over the West/Northwest.



Thursday....more of the same



Beyond that, it should turn a bit more dry. But too early to say for sure yet.

Blimey it's pretty relentless isn't it? Hope the wind drops at least. My daughter is terrified if we step out the door!!

Cumbria is getting hit hard. It's even worse than Nov 2009 over there. Record levels at some gauges.

Winds will drop off rapidly tonight. Monday and Wednesday could be windy days but mostly just for the west.

Back in November 1981, record breaking (up to that point) rainfalls in Cumbria was eventually followed by severe cold and snowy spells during the following December & January

Back in 2009, record breaking rainfall in November in Cumbria was eventually followed by the coldest winter since 1961.


Is history trying to tell us something? :cool:

Landslide on the Kinlough to Rossinver road, part of Kinlough-Manorhamilton road closed and flood on the Kinlough-Bundoran road too.
