    Might be a good idea to plug out electrical appliances

    Judging by the excellent met eireann radar it’s not drifting east but north east along the band. It’s also dying out from the south.

    Dublin doesn’t look to be in the firing line anymore.

    Anybody understand why this was so hard to predict. I literally looked at the Met eireann Dublin forecast in the app at 12-1am and nothing. I am planning a barbecue so needed to know. Now there’s a warning until 12 for Leinster and east Munster issued at 5am.

    Seems to be losing its spark at the moment

    Likely to spark up again somewhat but not as much as earlier

    In my experience and I could be wrong,this is No 1985 (yet) but the heat energy of that sun in the East could still liven up storms later this morning as this passes through
    The cloud over head me is moving north north east btw,almost full NE indicating the flow overhead is now SSW
    Attached 2 photos
    Lots of towers growing

    Looks like that's it.
    Came suddenly and goes out the same way.
    Would expect the orange warning to be taken down shortly

    Beginning to spark up a little again

    Suggest biggest Dublin area risk of direct hit 10-11am

    Aye,just to clarify,what we've seen this morning wouldn't puddle in the pool of any of our historic thunderstorm spells
    But could the extra heat energy spark some more out of this to excite the thunder pallets in the east yet,I think so?

    Got a total of 3 rumbles of thunder and 10 minutes of rain here my section of the SE.

    Looks like I just got unlucky.

    Skies clearing to my southeast, but big towers going up to my southwest. Lightning died out shortly after 8.30am. There was a quarter hour spell where it was getting close to 85 for intensity, but unfortunately it didn't sustain that level.

    Sun is back out here now. Got a few nice videos, one of the big hail too...

    Didn't notice anything in Rathdrum, Wicklow this morning. Maybe the pints last night helped me to sleep through it! Lovely blue sky and sunshine here now, is there more activity likely later?

    At least some thunderstorm actually occured!
    I'm a bit sickened, considering we missed an extreme thunderstorm by no more than 20km yesterday in West Clare.
