    Lot of activity in the channel this afternoon and evening from a system that this Irish sea activity has branched off from...waterspouts and funnel clouds.
    Nothing on lightning detectors from it yet...

    Some action out in the Irish Sea http://brunnur.vedur.is/athuganir/eldingar/i_dag_na.html?.
    Possibility of glancing the east coast...??? Not likely but better than nothing today.


    Also, time to open a winter thread? Always some conflict on here about seasons.

    Power went in Rathcoole last night about 10pm. Can anyone confirm if this was due to a lightning strike? There was a very heavy shower at the time.

    Must have been a lot windier than I thought during those squawly showers and thunder this morning !! Gulp. Through all the 'storms' of the last 3 years had only twigs coming down. Here's the baby that came crashing down this morning ! !:eek::eek::eek::eek:
