All Things Met Eireann Related Go in Here (MOD NOTE #1)

Coming from the diva who had a meltdown on the thread last week that the bin men were going to collect your rubbish an hour earlier during the hot day and you turned it to a rant that the country is finished so that’s very rich coming from you, the biggest hyperbolic whinger going who damns his nations fate off of a early bin collection lol

What was it you were saying about whinging? And what they hell does you watching 4 men working in the sun in Italy have to do with anything?

You don’t see it, well then there we have it folks. Magilligan recorded 64.4mm, It’s 1km from Donegal. I’m not sure what the hourly rate is for there but for Castlederg they recorded 30mm in 1 hour and over 40mm inside 3 hours which meets the red criteria from met Éireann.

Rain red

70mm or greater in 24 hrs

50mm or greater in 12 hrs

40mm or greater in 6 hrs

Neither of those areas are in Donegal but the heaviest rain was in East Ininshowen and NW Derry, as I said Magilligan is 1km from Donegal they were under the same conditions. Castlederg is a stones throw as well.

The met office issued a warning for the north late, M.E could have done the same or acknowledged it today but they didn’t. I wasn’t calling for a red or anything like that. What’s the point of the warning system if they don’t issue it. Once again you’re just off on a rant about shite, most people don’t follow weather boards and the warning system is in place for the general public. An exceptional amount of rain for Ireland fell in a short amount of time, no matter how much you try spin or turn in to a rant about people being thick etc etc. I just wonder how much different your comments would be if happened in Dublin, actually I don’t care.

I mentioned Dublin because that’s where you live, no other reason. Now you’re trying to be twisted as you were horrendously wrong about the rain fall totals. There is no met Éireann station in the east of inishowen(certainly not beside Magilligan)that I know about to check the rainfall totals, the radar shows that area under the same conditions as Magilligan which recorded 64.4mm which is a stones throw away but at least you now admit a warning was warranted after ranting about there being no need for warnings lol. Great to see you’re enjoying your holiday.

You keep moving the goal posts, wrapping yourself up in knots as per usual. Such misery.

It’s quite obvious that a warning should have been issued last night, the criteria was met and well exceeded. The rainfall rates were in excess of 32mm ph over eastern inishowen as per the met office radar, that’s the highest level it goes to so it may have been beyond that. Exceptional rainfall totals were recorded in Magilligan right beside Donegal. You know all this though, you just like being difficult for the sake of it.

And you tell me to read a forecast, maybe it would suit you better to read the news today, check the radar from last night and see rainfall totals before making a show of yourself . Instead of crying about bins and brining up pointless off topic nonsense about watching Italian men working in the sun.

I didn’t say that though did I, I said it one part of one county and the fact they didn’t mention it today when I watched the weather was poor especially when no warning was issued(I haven’t seen the weather since maybe they have now). That’s a fair criticism.

And you were complaining about the warning system(amongst millions of other things) therefore complaining about Met Éireann yourself for having such a system. You were wrong just move on. And the thread is about met Éireann if you’re triggered that much by any legitimate criticism of them, maybe stay off of it.
