    I note the rain weather warnings in the west. Seems very heavy in the east of the county! Should there have been a yellow warning for the entire country or was this unexpected!!!!

    Heavy snow now in north Dublin, roads turning white, people abandoning their cars







    (is what I would be saying if the temperature was 10c lower)

    28mm of rain in Sligo since rain began yesterday

    Met forecast 3c tonight. Prob 7am when that happens as 8 to 11c now

    Actually app on my phone says exactly that. It also forecast 30mm of rain here from this so performed a lot better than Met Eireann. They certainly need to up their game. Lately theyr falling in standard a lot.

    Like that weather warning was wrong at weekend and yet they didnt change it and bbc or uk met when theyr wrong you get "well the front seems to have stalled in a different area than we had predicted" they admit theyr wrong or maybe I just look at weather too much every day and am nit picking.

    I was just wondering that. Incredibly heavy here in Dublin South for the last two hours, haven't heard rain this bad for a good while.

    This rain reminds of the 2011 event in Greater Dublin

    Lots of main roads in south Dublin are now completely flooded and it’s tricky enough to get almost anywhere. I didn’t realise it was going to be this bad at all in the East of the country!

    Rainfall radar looks torrential over Kildare. Can vouch for that here with flooded garden and stream nearly overflowing. Close to 30mm now fallen since last night.

    Some roads here in Donabate are impassible or passable with great care. Unless I missed something, I'm wondering was this event properly predicted, and was a weather warning necessary?

    No and yes

    Just back from a couple of days away up north. Drove back through a very foggy Co. Meath.

    Partly cloudy and 7.3c atm in Dublin 16.

    Recorded 18.8mm here yesterday, most of which fell in the evening.
