    Widespread rain during Saturday 15th January, with 15 to 30mm accumulating widely. In western parts of Connaught and Munster 30 to 50mm of rain is expected, with up to 80mm possible in the Cork and Kerry mountains

    Is there still a band of rain on the way to produce these rainfall totals from ME

    Was pretty bad in Galway City last night and still is this afternoon.It started off with little twigs and other debris hitting the skylight last night.Then it seemed to be bigger bits,possibily small branches of nearby trees hitting it.Was waiting for the whole tree to uproot.I like a good storm like that:).

    Wind is still quite strong here in Tipp but the rain has eased off a lot.
    10.4C, mild enough but nothing exceptional.

    Not too bad here in Waterford. Only 9mm of rain since midnight but wind is strong in gusts. Unfortunately my station is semi blocked to SW winds so not get accurate readings on wind speeds today. Wind is strong though.

    Lots of rain and strong winds, pretty standard winter storm though considering I grew up on the west coast
