Should be with you soon, it's pouring further south and banging away. I hope it makes it up to me 🙏 Met Office seemed to have it moving east fairly quickly...

DOCARCH

Beach clearing rapidly!

Supercell

Was outside and nearly jumped out of my skin there a few moments ago. Very throaty noises to the south. Dublin looks to be in the firing line, cannot wait!

DOCARCH

Quite ominous looking out to sea.

EOQRTL

Wow some moody skies over Dublin now

Reversal

Lots of amendments and corrections to the aviation TAFs. ME clearly caught on the hop and in fairness, I think all the models really underplayed this too?

DOCARCH

Thunder overhead now in Greystones. All seems to be elevated.

An absolute waste, better in nighttime due to elevated nature

esposito

Flash and a loud clap of thunder here now 😁

Agreed @pad199207 - these elevated storms all seem to be morning time along with home-grown storms which seem to be afternoon-evening.

We haven't had night time storms in a good few years now. Pity, love a good spectacle of a night time TStorm.

I can hear plenty of thunder in Dublin 7 anyways, Phoenix Park area.

FlubberJones

Thunder hitting Cherrywood BIG TIME at the moment, just awaiting the rain as it is almost certainly going to arrive now

hawkwing

Sparks in Dundrum SCD last 10 mins

Supercell

Fantastic noises here, love it! Rain has arrived too, garden badly needs it. Perfect end to the warm snap.

Stephen_Maturin

Lightning over south Dublin! 😆

DOCARCH

Has passed Greystones now. All heading for Dublin. Just a couple of minutes of rain.

Apothic_Red

Direct hit incoming on Dublin.

It's too late for the capital, save yourselves

Small rumbles right now over Dublin 4 (Serpentine Ave). Feels like something is building overhead.

Trebor176

Frequent thunder in Terenure now, and it's getting louder. It's kind of raining too.

It's moving through fair fast indeed.

Looks like something homegrown building south Limerick? Possibly the cooler air coming into play now?

pad199207

Thunder heard in Kildare now

Donegal Storm

Just seen a nice bright fork followed by a big crack of thunder in Dublin city centre

Stephen_Maturin

Forks of lightning and the air thick with petrichor - love it

Likewise, some crash of thunder. It's heading our way!

esposito

Dublin now included in the updated thunderstorm warning.

Niall145

Nice blast of thunder/lightning in North Dublin there (car alarms going off), finally some real weather!

Glossy1

Can hear rumbles in the distance from D15. Few spots of rain

skinnyfries

Rumbles of thunder in Louth

pad199207

Boom!

highdef

In the west of the city (Inchicore), there's a good bit of rumbling but high based stuff or way off to the east and nothing loud, probably Dublin Bay or so. I would imagine locations right along the seaboard are having louder thunder.
