    The nature of this is hit and miss so you might be grand anyhow.

    Less focus on thunder and lightning I think from now on but still very heavy downpours.

    Savage rain. We are in the firing line here in Meath. Waiting to hear a bang of thunder. Deadly warm, as my mother would say ;)

    Some big Convection there, how much juice left in it ?

    Train of convection running in a SE'ly direction through Cavan, Meath Kildare, Dublin , looks like it is dropping a lot of rain.

    Looks like lightning getting closer to the NE in some very active cells.

    No thunder and lightning, but another intense cloudburst in Lucan for the last 20 minutes. Heaviest rainfall I have seen here in years.
