    Just that one rumble over Cork City Centre a while ago. It’s just been heavy constant rain with very heavy bursts since.

    Just got 3 or 4 bangs of nearby thunder in the Ballysimon area near Limerick city. A couple of downpours also in the last half hour.

    I think that was the most active storm I've ever seen in this country. I managed to get one shot from Dungarvan before the downpours.

    Dry warm and sunny here in Castlebar with some very bubbly high top clouds rising up already. Up to 18 degrees at 10am at mount dillon and Claremorris which will help things along.

    The storm over Waterford seemed to disipate over Cork last night. A few flashes and rumbles but nothing major!
    It looks like it's the West's turn now today can't see much for the South coast

    east clare last night 4 - 5 am all hell broke loose, woken to tremendous peals of thunder - even the double glazing shook and even with my eyes shut the flashes of lightening could penetrate my eyelids :eek:

    any chance of a daytime show today for the midwest??

    Two rumbles and that was that for Cobh. No flashes. It died out just as it got here. Had the camera ready and all.

    Shouldn’t they include the word ‘lightning’ in the above warning? Just my opinion.
