Rain has just started here. Light and patchy ATM.

Rain stopped!

squonk · 30-07-2008 9:21pm

Just some light rain started here in the last half hour... drops mainly, the ground isn't wet yet or anything. Breezy and the sky has gotten very dark in the past while.

Calina · 30-07-2008 9:31pm

Sky turned an amazing colour for the sunset under some fairly grey looking clouds. Sorry I wasn't out with a camera.

it's not yet raining here, but it's very humid. I think I want a weather station.

LEIN · 30-07-2008 9:35pm

Rain getting steady enough now. Would like to see some of this heavy stuff thats being predicted later.

RoisinD · 30-07-2008 9:42pm

Temperature currently 18.7, beautiful sunset, and not a drop of rain. Best day in a long time. Glad to see the rain is nowhere near us at the moment.

mike65 · 30-07-2008 10:12pm

Tipping down.

Mike.

Got this amazing looking rainbow at sunset behind it. Photo does it no justice, full 180 although you cant see it.

30-07-2008 10:44pm

Very wet down here.
Total for the day is now up to 14.7mm.

I met the rain at sandyford driving south on the M50 with the most amazing yellow sunset behind me in Dublin.
Very heavy rain then the whole way down and likewise for the last half hour.

30-07-2008 10:56pm

Thats 45.7mm in 24hrs or so here already :eek:

Still raining.
peak rate was 45.5mm/hr at 318 am this morning

Supercell · 31-07-2008 8:36am

34.5mm here since midnight and still raining, looks like a pretty big daily total on the way as this is only part one.

Snowbie · 31-07-2008 9:39am

Lightish rain with only the odd heavier burst only here since midnight and can see by the radar, you Wicklow lads got a dumping in the earlier hours.
Just had a heavy shower there it seems and has moved off smartly now.

More fun and game for later, only if you like water sports in your back yard.

The Black Oil · 31-07-2008 9:41am

Pouring down, same as last night really.

Supercell · 31-07-2008 9:42am

Not only in the early hours , have a look at http://www.annamoe.net/raw.htm and check out the rainfall rates all morning here, its pretty awsome is the only word to describe!
Up to 37.1mm now and no end in sight.

mike65 · 31-07-2008 10:18am

Bleugh, barely dry at the moment, leaden skies.

Mike.

31-07-2008 10:34am

Heavy rain continues here.
It only slows to a drizzle and then a heavy burst
Current rain rate 37.6mm/hr
Total since midnight 26.9mm
yesterdays total 21.1mm
In just over 24hrs we've now a total of 48mm or almost 2 inches and rising.

nacho libre · 31-07-2008 12:06pm

Overcast here.
I suspect the North West of the country may have below normal rainfall for the month of July. It seems to be the way if there is a series of deluges in the East and South East.

mike65 · 31-07-2008 1:45pm

Tipping down again.

Mike.

The Black Oil · 31-07-2008 1:54pm

Rain has stopped and the road seems to be drying up a bit. There's a hint of brightness trying to breach the clouds.

nacho libre · 31-07-2008 2:46pm

Light rain here now.

The BBC weather rainfall chart indicates that we will get fairly heavy rain in the small hours.

The Black Oil · 31-07-2008 7:29pm

Some blue sky has appeared and there's some sunlight.

What part of Dublin are you in roughly?

mike65 · 31-07-2008 7:36pm

Its stopped! The sun is bursting forth er well eeking out a ray or two anyways.

Deep Easterly · 31-07-2008 7:38pm

Quite a heavy shower here 20mins ago, and looks like a pretty severe shower is breaking out just inside the Mayo/Roscommon border at the moment.

Edit: Gone pitch black here, but it is hard to tell if that shower is producing heavy rain or exceptionally thick light rain as visability is down to nothing in that direction.

Edit Edit: It's light thick rain:rolleyes: Bark worse that bite again, darkness due to lowering stratus that is almost down to tree level. :mad:

LEIN · 31-07-2008 7:43pm

Very dark here. Not raining at the mo but id say its on its way. Some amount of rain here at 8:50 this morning. Thought i was going to have to sail to work.
