    Hearing thunder here in ballincollig in cork


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 41,734 ✭✭✭✭Itssoeasy


    Was walking the dog around the gaa pitch and heard the thunder in cork. I actually thought it was something after failing over. It's still going on now. I've never heard this much continuous thunder.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 136 ✭✭Ryan Mac Sweeney


    Yes its getting quite loud and continious alright here is Cork no rain though


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 29 fr0zen


    Very active here in Carrigaline, Cork its been going on for about 10/15 minutes now


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 136 ✭✭Ryan Mac Sweeney

    Think I heard over Cork Airport air traffic control that the powers gone at the Airport, could be wrong though.

    Is SKY intermittent?

    It's sunny here now, no rain (north side of city) but thunder still very audible - can see airport hill from here and it looks much darker.

    It can be quite difficult to listen to at first.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,355 ✭✭✭sunbabe08


    Dogs are going wild on the northside 😊


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,355 ✭✭✭sunbabe08

    No rain though, its stopped now, calm before the storm?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,355 ✭✭✭sunbabe08


    What are the chances of that make its way towards us??


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,545 ✭✭✭JanuarySnowstor


    It does look to have Cork as it's destination right now. Moving very slowly though


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,516 ✭✭✭✭JCX BXC


    I'd say it'll die out before reaching Cork City.

    Wouldn't like to be in the middle of that though! Chances are you'd be seeing monsoon rain or hail for at least an hour!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,355 ✭✭✭sunbabe08


    Ahhh starting to rain here on the northside


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,499 ✭✭✭lolie



    And i was just about to say the cell over cork looked impressive on the radar.
    Wouldn't mind looking at that close up.
