    Gone a bit quiet here again now.

    Looking forward to seeing some epic stuff develop over England in a few hours time, if the models are right.

    West Wicklow, West Dublin - possible cell development could be with you within 30 minutes. Also possible development just off the Wicklow and Dublin coasts - could be two pronged attack on the capital.

    That's unreal, never seen the likes of it here, one after the next. Actually looks quite dangerous, was a few people you could see walking by. I dont think I'd venture out like that, the strikes were very very close.

    I was just thinking the same. Still a lot of traffic etc there. Wouldnt be my cuppa to be out in it, prefer watching from the safety of the webcam.

    An almost certain cell development off the Wicklow coast going by the radar. Heading for south Dublin, north Wicklow.

    The most interesting thing there from an Irish perspective I think is the cells just off Pembrokeshire. They are not electrified yet* but they might become active as they head up the Irish Sea, could give a light show to those on the east coast later.

    *Just as I type that I notice they have started to spark now.

    It took me quite a few refreshes to tune into the Bournemouth cam. There is a big demand for it.

    Please check out my varied content on YouTube.com/@jpmarn. That’s includes some weather.
