    Sunny spells in Cork City with some clouds around, bit of a breeze but warm in the sun. We are meant to get some rain during the night, but looks like ME were spot on about the warnings (well by removing us anyway)

    Limerick as well as Cork has been removed from status yellow rainfall warning by Met Eireann.

    Wow that is a huge amount of rainfall, I’m hoping Athenry doesn’t break any records this August. If the rainfall keeps up at this pace, the only outcome I can see is flooding..

    It will not break the record, but it is still an exceptional amount of rain for the month there.

    Flood warnings out now for Mayo, mainly around the river Deel but also the rest of the county.

    after about an hour of drizzle during lunch time, it's starting to brighten up here now at Dunshaughlin, with a few very faint glimses of hazy sunshine breaking through and temperature of 19C.

    After initial downpours in Tralee it's been a nice day.


  • Registered Users Posts: 10,024 ✭✭✭✭Oscar Bravo


    A LEVEL 3 alert for flooding has been issued for Crossmolina due to heavy rainfall and high water levels in the River Deel and a Level 2 alert has been issued for the rest of County Mayo.

    The alerts are in place for today (Friday) and tomorrow (Saturday).

    Mayo County Council urge the public to remain vigilant during the duration of the warning and it is important that people within the affected areas are prepared appropriately for the anticipated rainfall totals with 30 – 50 mm expected.

    There is a possibility that weather warnings can be extended or deteriorated conditions last longer than anticipated.

    Once the weather warning has passed, please remain vigilant and exercise caution as the effects of the weather can last longer.

    Mayo County Council will provide updated information on their social media channels where appropriate

    You know it's only the record for the station in Athenry and not the national record for August.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,685 ✭✭✭Mobhi1


    No real rain here for the last 8 days, since 22nd August. It's been fairly sunny here for the last while - clouding up a bit now. It's quite breezy too. It reached a high of 20.6C an hour ago. That's over a week now since the high's been less than 20.


  • Registered Users Posts: 12,778 ✭✭✭✭ninebeanrows


    Nice evening in north Dublin if a bit breezy


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,480 ✭✭✭Hooter23


    Next pulse of rain arriving in Galway now...

    It's about 20kms away.

    Many days you see polar opposite weather. Wet and misty in the city, dry in Athenry or clear sunny day in Salthill/ Galway city and cloudy and dull in Athenry.
