Plenty of thunder over north Kilkenny right now but no visible lightning from where I am.

Rumbles of thunder around Mallow now

lottpaul

Have been listening to thunder claps across the water in south Kerry since before 3pm. Continuous loud, echoing booms, like explosions or gunfire. Very menacing and eerie. Wouldn't like to have been under it. Meanwhile here in west Kerry the sun has kept shining all day, but the warning is in place until 10 pm, so, you never know.

Thunder rumbling again SE Tipp. Raining lightly with lots of blue sky and the warmest day of the year too.

The sound you hear when the lightning strikes is a transformer on a pole near me.

Good crack off that !

Quietened down now here Tralee.

The damn snow shield has become a thunder storm shield around cork city ðŸ˜

Have you thought about moving to an improved location?

These storms will dissipate quickly this evening and much colder air for tomorrow, Monday and Tuesday but a lot more stable.

Enjoy those who have storms this evening!

I'm jealous and I hate you all

SlowBlowin

Just turned my power back on briefly, that is the worst/best hail storm I have had hit us here (10 years). Marble sized for a good 10 minutes, damaging size. I grabbed the phone and recorded a few clips uploading now.

We had continuous thunder for at least an hour, with lighting every 30 seconds or so, towards the end some great mammatus clouds.

In addition to an hour of a storm, we also had our first swallows last night

Funnel cloud briefly appeared in Ennis, spectacular lightning show under way.
