    Anyone else see BOS5 flying directly over Kilarney National Park right now, aren't they kind of heading for the storm? I guess they could be too high to be affected by it. Anyone more knowledgeable than me care to elaborate?

    When the trains in Cork got disrupted in the last storm it was ok to mention it in the weather forum but this time its warnings all round.

    There were only a few comments, you would swear there was 10 pages about the diversions.

    Ah yes I see. Quiet then til 9. Thats an incoming Heathrow flight. I'd imagine they'll cancel that or else half chance it with a divert to Dublin. By then even Dublin may be outside the parameters.

    It'd be interesting to see did that Birmingham flight even bother taking off if its due to land at 1840 in SNN.

    It's very poor bordering on ridiculous circling of the weather wagons moderating. Surely the effects of the storm warrant discussion at the same time as the storm discussion itself.

    Edit: the weather forums loss is aviations gain. Looking forward to an interesting night here.

    If Shannon is closed surely they won't take off.

    It's well on the way- just off Waterford though looks as though it's heading for Cork. REA35SN

    We have the same thing with astronomy and volcanoes ~ all related to the weather of course and that causes some agitation as well.

    On other independent boards, it is a policy to set up an incident thread where ALL and every related subject goes that would otherwise not be tolerated in any one or the other.

    I always thought boards ie did this too, as they are just following a formula, but seemingly not anymore if they ever did.

    It is frustrating.

    No lightning showing up on the Iclandic detector, this storm is not a lightning show though sporadic convection events may spin up.

    I would assume that historically (and still today) ship reports are a reliable indicator of storm progress and severity.

    Diversions and go-arounds are perhaps seen are a byproduct of the storm so not directly related to weather.

    I saw only 2 post related to aviation......seemed non invasive to me.

    On the weather forum? No, there was a lot more than two, tbh, it was like this forum posting there ~ now, IMO, in this situation I don't see the problem.

    Just heard it,

    SNN to the Shamrock 723 (London to Cork), have you a pen and paper handy to copy the weather...
    (he gives them the weather updates in General and for Cork).

    two minutes later he comes back with more inland weather warnings,

    Shamrock 723 replies:

    "We're running out of paper at this stage"

    As a side note, the pressure is currently at 969mb (near SNN) and dropping one 1mb every 15 minutes, expected to reach a low of 948mb.
