    Dark now, plenty of thunder. Bit breezy too. South Co. Carlow


  • Registered Users Posts: 33,727 ✭✭✭✭RobertKK


    Thunder is getting louder in north Kilkenny. Hopefully it comes directly over us. Very narrow shower band.

    Plenty of altocumulus up the Irish sea off the Dublin coast. Think I'll stick a beer in the fridge in case things kick off

    Constant distant thunder heard from here in South Laois. Sky black to my SE. Notably breezy


  • Registered Users Posts: 33,727 ✭✭✭✭RobertKK


    Power outages increasing in the areas with the thunderstorms according to PowerCheck.


  • Registered Users Posts: 19,386 ✭✭✭✭road_high


    That rolled in very quickly from Wexford. Lights flickering now in Kilkenny. Neighboring counties watch out

    Can’t be too far off as it’s rolling here in Kilkenny for the past hour but not that intense yet. The main activity seems a little further east along the Barrow valley


  • Registered Users Posts: 7,116 ✭✭✭pad199207


    Storm as it was rolling into Kilmore Quay

    Any more due to roll in across South Kilkenny/Wexford or Waterford?
    Seemed to pass very fast off up to Carlow and laois. Hoping to see some more but hard to tell if anything else is coming from the Celtic sea.

    I can see the thunder clouds east of me from the city but it looks too far away to affect us here at the moment.

    Spectacular convection overhead and to my south and south west, in North Kildare. Was almost clear skies 15 minutes ago. Towers galore.

    The altocumulus up the Irish see is starting to tower as well. And it's getting hazier and somewhat sultry now

    Yup that's the incoming that affected kilkenny, it's taking the exact same route from the exact same place as those storms a few months ago

    Nice few flashes between portlaoise and Monasterevin and torrential rain ..the loudest thunder I have heard in a while.


  • Registered Users Posts: 19,386 ✭✭✭✭road_high
