    Torrential rain with constant thunder in this clip a short time ago here near Tralee. Temp right down to 12.5C now. Got windy under the cell during the heavy rain and hail, could see the cloud base swirling a bit. Coming up on 25 mm now since midnight, 19 mm in about an hour. Had a rain rate of 51 mm an hour.

    Still have thunder and lightning, heavy rain just starting again.

    Seems to be picking plenty on it's outer ranges - probably because it's heavy rain & high up

    By the looks of things, there will be nothing for Dublin or the east coast today or over the next few days.
