    Some rainfall totals from WOW observations:

    Bunclody - 45.4mm
    Naas - 42.9mm
    Oak Park - 40.3mm
    Wexford Wildfowl Reserve - 35.6mm
    Thomastown (Mt. Juliet) - 35.1mm

    These sort of daily totals were so common here during the 2nd half of July & August that I'm almost numb to their significance.

    Nice morning in Dublin 5. 50% of average sunshine or less this week doesn't sound good!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 32,634 ✭✭✭✭Graces7


    Such a lovely morning! I know ; due to deluge but have enjoyed the early brightness immensely. "Gather ye rosebuds while ye may. " etc! revel in now! west mayo offshore

    Nice sunny morning here but it's only just gone beyond 10 degrees at 10.3C. I've just been reminded by MT Cranium that we've just passed the Autumn equinox a few minutes ago so some people say we've just gone into Autumn.

    Miserable morning in cork city. Was lashing around 7:30 and now has been drizzle since


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 32,634 ✭✭✭✭Graces7


    Solid rain that clearly intends to stay a while. So fire lit for cheer and against wet chill.. Snugged in, and no need to be out again today... west mayo offshore

    Dull and wet in Castlebar, but it is really the first time we have had persistent rain during morning/afternoon hours in nearly a week.

    rain arrived in Dunshaughlin too. The ground here has been wet since Saturday evening, I can see it staying wet for the next week with very little if any drying.

    13.0mm recorded at my Waterford station. Awful conditions.


  • Moderators, Science, Health & Environment Moderators Posts: 17,865 Mod ✭✭✭✭Gonzo


    I don't think I've seen the word 'thunder' mentioned so many times in a Met Eireann national forecast. https://www.met.ie/forecasts/national-forecast

    There will be no shortage of rain over the next week, could be more trouble for areas already effected from yesterday's flooding.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,685 ✭✭✭Mobhi1


    The rain is heavier now. Thee's been 1.4mm recorded now in the last hour.


  • Moderators, Science, Health & Environment Moderators Posts: 17,865 Mod ✭✭✭✭Gonzo


    very heavy rain here too now, lots of surface water again.

    It was like high summer and just a few days later it’s like the depths of winter. Definitely a winter sun holiday before Christmas.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,888 ✭✭✭✭Rock Lesnar


    15mm from the latest Rain band, was really heavy for about an hour from 8pm
