    The uppers are starting to upgrade for Thursday and Friday with both gfs and ukmo giving us a direct hit!!
    Increasingly though a cool down looks to be firmed up for Saturday.
    Overall from what was showing two days ago it's nothing special at all

    yep just average irish summers conditions....christ.

    Friday: It looks set to turn exceptionally warm by Friday with
    spells of sunshine and just the odd thunderstorm.
    Very warm or hot with maximum temperatures of 24 to 28 degrees widely
    but a few degrees less warm in coastal areas of the north and east in moderate east winds.
    Temperatures only falling marginally overnight with minimum temperatures of 15 to 19 degrees,
    staying very humid.

    All rainfall warnings have now expired, although it is now lashing again in Kildare.

    I must stress that this scenario has been extremely difficult to forecast so all these silly comments of Met Eireann getting it wrong are ridiculous.

    Personally I’m still not ruling out some lightning up along the SE and E coast later on tonight.

    Funny as the warning for Leinster was not to come into force till 18:00 hours 🀔

    Actually I find high humidity to be quite normal for the west from about the middle of spring till the start of autumn.

    very rarely in conjuction with high temperatures,
    usually with cool temperatures = damp.

    generally cool,damp,overcast, - normal
    this week warm/hot,humid - abnormal.

    Fekkin hell. The rain is horizontal here. Bloody grass will grow like the flipping Triffids now.

    But it is not cold, it looks cold though, and a bit dark and gloomy.

    Better days ahead!

    Does anyone else feel the electric storms on the back of their head ?

    I do and it's weird, but it's always correct. Nothing happening now though so at ease!

    Ironic the warning got cancelled as a deluge hit those leaving Croke Park.

    They must be pretty confident if they removed the warning. Bullish forecasting.

    Some serious storm activity expected in over southeast England tomorrow night...big imports from France. Disruption highly likely over there.

    Home grown storms here inland tomorrow afternoon/evening. Will be sharp if you get caught out! Not expecting much on the east coast due to on shore wind but most other places have a good chance.

    Subtle shifts this evening in the plume taking a direct hit with Ireland. ECM also goes for it. Breeze is also much stronger now for Thursday so what it means in weather terms I'm not sure. Thursday night looks tropical.

    As usual we will probably miss out on thunderstorms yet again in Meath! Our thunder and lightning shield has been operating at full strength since 1985 and never fails!

    Just had a huge downpour of rain for the past hour, back to drizzle now.

    Heavy rain in West Dublin has cleared. No thunder and lightning. Cool also. Interesting to see if any of this exciting weather materialises this week. I am pessimistic.

    Dry most of the day up here in Arklow until about 4,so not the colour of that
    Lashing now and on the attached radar the brighter colours off the coast are drifting right in over here now in a train heading NW off the sea
    This train could last a while here
    Current rain rate 9.4mm/hr

    It’s currently freezing pouring rain and totally overcast.

    Where’s this heat bomb and lightning storm exactly?
