Finally some sunshine here in North County Dublin. Hopefully it will soak up some of the damp ground!

I'm afraid to look at forecasts for fear of yet more downpours, I looked and now I fear, there is no let up at all!

Looks like October will be the 3rd very wet or excessively wet month in a row.

I can see Dunsany breaking the 100mm barrier again by months end.

Yup and Met Eireann highlighting large amounts of rain possible towards the end of the week

pad199207 · 06-10-2019 11:40am

150mm in the last two weeks in Kildare

There could be another 10-20mm tonight plus showers or rain all through this week.

Easily. Even the Liffey is a lot noticeably higher

Rock Lesnar · 06-10-2019 1:34pm

Was up in the home place there and was looking down on the river boyne and parts of it has over overflowed into the fields

Cloud is building now after a very nice morning, still sunny thankfully

Graces7 · 06-10-2019 2:04pm

Yeah it’s after getting quite a bit heavier alright in the last half hour. Didn’t except this for whatever reason. At least tomorrow looks alright

Great day here in Kerry , sunny earlier until it clouded over from the approaching front . Great day out walking along the coast looking for fossils and crabs and the likes with the young fella . Nice to see the Brent geese back form Canada .

Crinoid Fosil I think seen today.

Meteorite58 · 07-10-2019 12:14am

Big deep storm out in the Atlantic, very low pressure at about 957 hPa, just feeling the effects of a front associated with it tonight. Well away from us but set to bring windy conditions in coastal areas and breezy overland the next few days.

NASA Sat Pic form earlier today.

Not sure where to post this, but would it be possible to open a Typhoon Hagibis thread?
It's a major storm and there will be a lot of Irish interest in its expected track and predicted arrival date/time in Japan.

Gonzo · 07-10-2019 2:46pm

looks very unsettled weather continuing past the middle of this month, with unsettled charts right up to the end of October. The Atlantic appears to be unleashing everything it can at us over the coming weeks, with conveyor belts of rain bringing more heavy showers and longer outbreaks of rain or downpours.

HighLine · 07-10-2019 3:02pm

The Atlantic train of misery. Hop on board. Hopefully all those poor souls who cried for an end to the sleepless nights of the blistering inferno temps of 20C during the summer will be at ease now.

Donegal Storm · 07-10-2019 6:39pm

Torrential rain in Letterkenny, stuck in the car waiting for a break so I can make it into the gym without feeling like I jumped in the bath

Hooter23 · 07-10-2019 8:34pm

Very windy/gusty but dry...Galway...

I think next time there is a storm its best to make up your own mind if its going to be bad...anyone who looked at the charts the day before the storm could tell you it wasnt going to be that bad...it was just an Orange warning after all...ignore media from now on..especially RTE TV3;)

Hooter23 · 07-10-2019 10:41pm

Same weather rain/showers/wind this week into next week..according to bbc weather

Mortelaro · 08-10-2019 9:02am

Almost identical here in North Louth.
11.7c with a slight 18km/h breeze.

A lively feel of autumn to it.

harr · 08-10-2019 2:30pm

After getting very blustery here in Laois in the last hour some heavy showers between the sunny spells . Currently 13°

Neddyusa · 08-10-2019 3:30pm

Ferocious heavy showers at about 40 min intervals here I'm south Roscommon since yesterday evening.
Floods on top of floods.
The gusts in these squalls are way worse than any Lorenzo wind.

As an aside - the actual weather on the two Lorenzo days was the best here for most of the last month!

SleetAndSnow · 08-10-2019 4:17pm

Blustery and heavy showers every now and then in cork city. Can be calm.then and sunny with some warmth too. Totally unpredictable

snowgal · 08-10-2019 4:31pm

crazy heavy rain here at Dunshaughlin now as well, the sort of shower that my father would call 'a cloudburst'.

Xenji · 08-10-2019 5:42pm

Some awful squally showers today in Castlebar over 15mm of rain and a max gust of 74 km/hr.

Hooter23 · 08-10-2019 5:58pm

Sun and showers...Galway...I see they have solved the problem of climate change by making more money from it :pac:...I hope everyone that went out marching to save the planet got the extra taxes they wanted...

Donegal Storm · 08-10-2019 6:16pm

Prolonged heavy showers in Letterkenny, horrible evening, a real late autumn feel and the first time I felt like I could have used my winter jacket

Logan Roy · 08-10-2019 8:53pm

Decent few days in Cork for the start of October, some heavy quick showers but you'll take it.

Mammatus clouds just visible on the outer edges of this beauty after passing over Galway city.

Mortelaro · 09-10-2019 2:23pm

Moderate showers in Arklow at the moment

ytpe2r5bxkn0c1 · 09-10-2019 3:34pm

Sunshine and a brisk breeze just starting, with showers threatening constantly but never developing. North Louth. Out on the bay this morning and the sea was very calm.

Edit. And, as I press post, the wind whips up and squalls of rain finally hit.

Still reasonably mild @ 13.2c

Gonzo · 09-10-2019 4:13pm

heavy shower here at Dunshaughlin.

Meath

Oscar Bravo · 09-10-2019 10:32pm

Some nice bolts of lightning from the showers out west here at the moment. Several places in Westport/Louisberg without power

Oneiric 3 · 10-10-2019 3:14pm

Poor oul Pádraic bracing himself for another blast of drizzle earlier.

SleetAndSnow · 10-10-2019 4:09pm

Heavy showers all day in Cork City, strong enough breeze too at times.

Rock Lesnar · 10-10-2019 4:47pm

Grand day here in meath since the rain cleared, has been dry and very breezy, theres great drying as the mother says

Hooter23 · 10-10-2019 5:11pm

pad199207 · 10-10-2019 5:30pm
