Any gusty wind or downdrafts associated with this storm witnessed by anyone out there ?

My station was recording a NNW breeze as the band moved south of here:

The whole sky is lighting up over Cork city,can't hear any thunder, it's fantastic to watch it.

Standing outside in West Clare and I can see the lightning show all the way from east Tipperary!

Fierce lightening and thunder in East Cork. Heavy downpours too.

We'll be hearing about this from the Cork people until the end of the year :P

Where is this biblical rain at??

nokiatom · 14-06-2020 1:49am

Lots of lightening in Youghal tonight and one massive roar of thunder

brevity · 14-06-2020 1:49am

I’m near Fermoy and there has been thunder and lightning for the last 10-20 minutes. Really loud, crunching, vibrating thunder. Well impressed

Spencer Brown · 14-06-2020 1:49am

Plenty of nearby flashes here in East Cork, seems to have passed over now. Most notable thing is the rain, biblical and still going.

aisling86 · 14-06-2020 1:50am

Amazing to see it light up the whole city in cork, thunder very distant and seems to be gone now but delighted i stayed up.

Seems to have passed over. I'm sure the neighbours dog is delighted. He can stop barking now!

Edit, spoke too soon. More thunder now.

sweet_trip · 14-06-2020 1:54am

Any other systems due in tonight or in the morning?
still seeing some fresh blips around wexford and the irish sea on lightningmaps.

Meteorite58 · 14-06-2020 1:55am

ECM 18Z is out and continues to show widespread storms tomorrow and some quite severe.

If the charts for tomorrow verify then tonight will be just like an aperitif .

titan18 · 14-06-2020 1:56am

There was a proper flash by my house now. Hearing some thunder too and rain has started

Can see that on the radar. Am near Mallow here so looks like it’s on the way.

Waterford got a great lights show with sound thrown in and torrents of rain, thoroughly enjoyed it!

marvsins · 14-06-2020 1:59am

Lightning thunder and heavy rain in shanbally, ringaskiddy area

Samsgirl · 14-06-2020 2:04am

Huge clap of thunder just shook the house here in South Tipp. Wow, never heard it as loud before.

tails_naf · 14-06-2020 2:05am

South tipp / North Cork border, just got a hammering. Lightning once or twice a minute for what felt like ages. Really cool to hear the roar of the thunder so close.
