Looking at the radar east Limerick including the city could be in the firing line for thunder showers. It looks like that there was a strike in the Killmallock area.

At home yesterday evening in Douglas Cork around 7 , there was 30 minutes with frequent thunder , good few flashes of lightning , heavy downpours , i dont have any recollection of as much T&L in past 10+ years , very enjoyable.

Took this video from the Pier at Athlone Golf Club at about 9PM last night. Didn't get any flashes, but there was a lot of rumbling coming from the direction of this cloud.

Is it a shelf cloud ? or some sort of bow or something ?

This was the image on the radar about 30 minutes before hand
