    Hi, Bit of an odd question bur does anyone remember what the weather was around this time 8 years ago? When 911 was going on.

    I seem to recall fairly nice sunny day... but 2 of my friends who live nearby seem to think it was a cloudy overcast day.

    Anyone remember?

    I remember my PC getting wet as I brought it in to CIT from the car. The radio was going bananas about the towers at that stage.

    It was a sunny day. I remember that. I remember watching the first tower on TV just after it was hit, someone heard it on their radio & out TV on. We had just left the meeting room & the second plane hit the second tower. I remember at the time that for a brief moment I thought it was a hoax of some sort it was so surreal.
    It is no wonder America is so security conscious now, with all 4 hits they must have felt really vunerable, especially at that time.

    Tony O Connell the photographer on Nth Main St had some super photos he took in Bantry that day looking out over the Atlantic .Probably still has copies in the shop.Great place to get quality pics of Cork landmarks.

    It was definitely sunny in the early afternoon because I was sitting in the garden sunbathing. I remember because I heard about it first on the Joe duffy show through an open window!
