    Fairly sure that was just a positive strike, massive explosive thunder, the entire building vibrated and it's a fairly solid building!

    Yes you'd swear it was a cannon blast went off rather than thunder!

    My home office is in the attic here in Clonsilla. It just shook. Huge flash and a massive bang.

    Best thunderstorm in Lucan in years. One particular savage flash and rumble about 10 minutes ago. Still lightning and loud thunder to the south. Clearing from the north. Intense rainfall for 25 minutes. Great to finally get a decent summer storm.

    Looking at the radar looks like a rash of cells breaking out in Meath and Louth moving south.

    Still hearing lots of distant rumbles in Dublin 16.

    Fierce fork lightning at Liffey Valley a little while ago.
    Loudest thunder I’ve heard in a long time, the car park literally shook!

    I'm nearby to there, and I will be epic I suspect. Some amount fell from that little cell.

    Really loud and a strike hit the right field nearby, whole place shook!

    I want more! (with the caveat that people and property stays safe)

    Back in Clondalkin. There was another rumble a minute or so ago. It has brightened up.

    Getting off the LUAS at the Red Cow, the thunder sounded strange. Kind of crackly.

    It has been a good while since I have heard that amount of thunder. More than the early morning back at the end of June.

    More to come?

    I'm in Donabate, lovely sunny day here. But to my west I've been watching the biggest bad tempered cell erupt out of nothing in the last 30 minutes. I'm not one bit surprised that those of you under it are having a ball :D
