Some small but potent storms kicking off around the country. Worth a separate thread as this risk for big thunder and big lightning is there until tomorrow night at least. All parts at risk this evening but east and south main focus tomorrow.
Some footage I took around then.

Powers back here in Carrick, still thunder but moving into west cavan etc i see the south has thunderstorms as well
That looks promising for more storms tonight in Cork City @Meteorite58!
Depends on how many airframes the Luftwaffe can get operational 😜
On a more serious note, it's certainly not impossible, especially once activity over the midlands kicks off, but that depends on a myriad of factors that I do not feel qualified enough to assess with any authority.
That's tomorrow night
New cells Limerick/Shannon
Would estimate that the rain rate in your video is about 30-60mm/ph.
so is it tomorrow night more so then tonight that cork city gets all the fun ?
Constant rumbling in East Cork
Lots of energy available into tonight and the early hours of Monday
Got to met.ie for the warnings,very hard for anyone to give such precise details giving the hit and miss nature of thunder storms
Cork should do well tonight and again tomorrow evening / night
That pretty much stays South of Dublin the entire time. Oh well.
That onshore easterly ruins it for Dublin itself I think
Means little under these types of synoptics and at this time of year.
Clouds over us now near mohill Leitrim. Few rumbles but still sounds distant
Met Eireann have removed the thunderstorm risk from Meath in the local weather forecast. What does it take to get 1 decent thunderstorm in this county.
Surprising lack of development here in southern Co.Antrim. TBH, the skies looked more sinister a few hours ago than they do now. It's just a fairly generic grey out there now with nothing in the way of structure to see now (and no activity).
Really wanted to see a night time light show tonight, but I've had a busy weekend and I'm tired. Not sure I can sit up when at the moment it's looking to be a bust here.

Rain going up to the left of me, and the right of me in West cork! Heard all about the storm in the city, was meant to be very loud! Typical, when I'm in the city the storms are down here, when I'm down here they are in the city! Hopefully tomorrow along the coast!
In My amateur opinion mind you 😀 It looks like the storms will migrate across the country towards the E /NE tonight and the early hours,that is not to say that more wont spring up in the Western half of the country, tomorrow looks like the best chance in Munster S Leinster and especially along Southern counties and along the coasts could have some big storms would think . A storm could spring up anywhere but the most chance in the Southern half of the country .
Just now
That plane is doing circles around North Clare passing Corofin right now.
Great video neighbour, I was directly under it.
Posting this picture again in the dedicated thread.
lightning currently in cavan!
Gives an idea the direction the storms are taking.
Pissing rain in Nenagh now. 20:52 no lightening yet
**** it. I know many people like thunder and lightning and all that but I genuinely **** hate it.
Should be hearing distant thunder, seeing distant flashes in Waterford soon, if not already.
Interesting clouds tramore
20.52 thunder, light rain in South Tipp. And you get that smell in the air, when the rain hits the ground after long spell of hot weather. Love it.
