    Is anything happening in Dublin? Seems like absolutely nothing different than a usual Thursday.

    Have you checked met Eireann a website ? It takes shorter than writing a post on here ?

    Doubtful at present. My Sky normally goes first too (no satellite signal being received on screen) and its working flawless all evening here in Tralee.

    I heard Radio Kerry say the worst of it will be between 12:00am - 3:00am though.

    I see Theresa has lost the hat. Going for full hair saturation for dramatic effect, except her hair is barely damp.
