    The ecm has the best ideas. The gfs just wants to drag the high eastwards.

    It must've rained heavily all night here in Meath/West Dublin again. Rain pooled all over the place with submerged garden in parts yet again. Will it ever end.
    I think I'll go and watch that BBC broadcast as consolation.

    East Meath absolutely sapped this morning, more water sitting in the garden / fiels this morning than in any December day, despite me not even noticing the overnight rain..

    A real dance here in the North East this morning. A loud night of rain, light brought sheets of cloud, a seeming static blanket. Then a break to ripples of blue and the clouds sweeping southward only to wheel and flow to the west. Drizzle spoils the light and flees then to fifty shades of grey clouds unsure where to ramble.

    Now bright overhead, grey to the east but no sign of further rain.

    The fields until this morning were sponges weeping water at the slightest touch but now lie beneath that water. Flooded roads are clearing and a few hours more should see the fields return to green hopefully.

    I really wonder if this could be a duller than normal January as last year was exceptionally sunny here?

    Yes was checking aa roadwatch and you have it bad. In Killarney only the Lower Ross road is closed and that is a commonly flooded area at the best of times. Dry roads around Tralee is a rare event these days.

    Amazing the difference inside the core of a low pressure if you're not underneath the circulating rain train
    Bone dry all day in Arklow yesterday and so far today

    Met Eireann has issued a weather advisory for rainfall tomorrow. They are forecasting 15 to 25mm of rain. The forecasted amount is generally under the threshold for a full yellow warning. It is because of the situation the flooding problems around the country and the addition to it caused by the forecast rain.

    Expect to see more gritters on the road in the coming days. Looking like frequent chilly nights!

    The council here said last week that there had been no gritters out as all their men were dealing with floods. I suppose that makes sense in a kind of Irish way... Set to change now clearly.

    Give us until after Friday please! Chill and still here this morning but I see a thread re gales and rain again...the respite has been bliss.. Friday? Getting the car sorted and coal etc. I see the Munster forecast includes the magic words, " wintry showers " for Thursday so it will be very pretty up here again. Happy Epiphany today!
