Kids were guessing what the next storm would be called beginning with g. Daughter reckoned Gayle. It will be Gertrude

Jesus Christ on a bicycle it hasn't stopped raining here all day. The amount the river rose in the space of 2 hours is frightening.
And me looking at the slurry rising up to the slats at an alarming rate.couldn't spread it with a helicopter down here. This reminds me of that Johnny Cash song "How highs the water momma ". And tomorrow's given worse.

What's normal. Bridges washed away in Britain and I wouldn't be surprised if it happened here (although maybe we build better bridges here).
They're saying another storm New Years Day.
Slaney is looking like it will flood enniscorthy with all this rain this evening.

Those bridges were most likely built by our dear ancestors so don't knock them

pouring here since around 3 when i came back from Kinsale where it was very windy, sea was rough but with low tide at least it seemed okish . howling now,
what must people with homes, cattle houses and fodder ruined feel like.

dodo mommy · 29-12-2015 10:17PM

Capercaillie · 29-12-2015 10:35PM

High tides tonight. Waiting to see if my fence beside the beach gets levelled again....

pedigree 6 · 29-12-2015 10:36PM

Road is flooded outside. As long as drivers take it slow through it they're fine,but expecting someone to barrel through it on the deep side of the road and get stuck. Graignamanagh is now flooded. Could nearly do with the plans of that boat that Noah built.

Wind and rain belting against the windows here!!....half way thru a bottle of vino:)

Strong winds here all night in westmeath

Mehaffey1 · 30-12-2015 07:18AM

More rain here, even more satisfying when I'm off on holidays. Looking at about 12ml over 24 hours. Every little helps in keeping that bale feeder and feed trailers parked up in the calf sheds.

TITANIUM. · 30-12-2015 07:34AM

Tis after drying up fierce in South kerry but very very strong winds now

Reggie. · 30-12-2015 08:12AM

Jaysus the water about the place. Didn't think it rained that much last night

Username John · 30-12-2015 08:42AM

What're the roads like in cork?

Planning to drive down from Cavan this morning, but it seems places might be rough enough?

Things will mind themselves at home... (Hopefully)

High winds in W Cork here now. Sound stronger than last night's storm. Power gone since before 9.00. Had severe rain last night with resultant flooding. Bandon flooded again but receding. Was hoping to be putting up shuttering for a parlour with a neighbour today but this wind is ruling that out.

whats the weather like in your area?
