Just starting to break up now so clearance should pass over the wee county shortly afterwards.

That’s plenty for the moment.

Raining in Limerick racecourse where I've just gotten my second moderna jab. Great view from the waiting area.

Murky, people are passing the house as if it were January, hooded coats and heads down.

Raining away here now again...

We are t having a super summer then, we have had good days, but no real run of dry weather...

Few lads around here now have hay down, this rain won’t do it any good

Rain just started here.

OH was called by a at lunch time to help bale about 20 acres of hay that was cut last Saturday and rowed up earlier today. We didn't get good hay weather here except for Wed and Thur afternoon when the sun came out and it was hot. We had fog both mornings and the rest of the week was dull and overcast.

I'm glad we didn't mow ours as the weather forecast wasn't promising for the week.

How did the other person get to bale it if weather wasn't good enough - was it not fit

Rain here now..... thank christ. Only in from a 23hr slog at final silage panic

Real rain or just drizzling

It's a light enough crop and could have done with another day.

Was at football half an hour away. It rained the whole way home and stopped about 2 minutes away from us. Bone dry here.

Heavens open here and some flash's of lightning big puddles everywhere

Looking at the football from Roscommon and water splashing from under their feet as they run. Has there been that much rain in the west lately or is it just a poorly drained pitch?

No rain for over a week in Roscommon until Friday night, a lot of rain fell yesterday and this morning, not constant rain but heavy showers, came across a heavy shower earlier while driving and though i would have to pull in, it was that heavy.

The pitch was only done last year i think.

We got some heavy thundery showers earlier today but it started in earnest at about 7 o'clock and it doesn't look like it's easing off. I lit the fire cause it's cool enough outside with a stiff East breeze.

Sweltering here in Leitrim:….using the good spell to get some much needed topping of rushes done….grass had gone very stemmy.

Wet land is still only soaking out after the deluges of rain we had last week.

I had to go to the local village just now to get bottled water as they were out of it this morning and the shop phoned to let me know that they had got a delivery in. We don't drink the tap water here as it's brown/peaty in hot weather and comes from a local water treatment plant. It's from the same plant that we had problems with sick/dying calves during the heatwave in 2018. The temperature in the van was 32.5c.

The reason it says SAFE is cause the battery was disconnected a few months ago and I can't find the card with the code for the radio.

Alot of houses around here have had no water since Friday. Bottled water can't be got in supermarkets

Our water is being restricted from 10pm - 9am daily, for this week at least, if not longer. First day of it was a pain as they gave no notice.

Looks like the rain for the weekend has been cancelled. The dry spell is forecast for another 7 - 10 days now. I knew by the amount of Sea fog in the mornings that this spell wasn't going to end this week. Growth is still holding up well, I've fields that are ready to graze again after only 14 days since they were grazed down, the farm is full of grass, Cows in super condition, Weanlens are really thriving now too

Got into the car in Limerick this evening it read 32 °C, drove to my place in West Clare and it was 18°C. Sea fog all day they tell me. Cattle are happy with it though!
