    Rain,Rain and more f***ing rain!

    Its been like this since 2pm today.


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,564 ✭✭✭Pangea


    Relatively small amounts showing up on finner there, I know from experience when it might be a nice day in Finner camp or that area, it can be a whole lot different on my side of Donegal Bay. Floods galore here this evening.

    It's been raining since around 3 pm today, just drove out from Galway city in biblical rain and it's still going.
    Alot of local roads are flooded and I'm sure it will do wonders for the potholes.
    Front garden under water, should get nice pictures tomorrow.

    Good morning fellow storm-chasers.

    And still we wait......

    *Current average wind speed 6kph, high gusts in the low 30s all night. Not a lot.
    *Temp is now a frigid 12.4c
    *It started raining at 5am and we have now accumulated 1.6mm
    *Pressure 992 hPa and still plummeting.

    I'm seen worse storms in the hot-press. But look at that big blob on the radar! (heading this way :confused:)

    Still pouring rain here, 17 hours so far. The back garden didn't stand much of a chance and is a bit of a swamp, heard there's lots of disruption around the town as well. Going to be fun walking to college :rolleyes:


  • Registered Users Posts: 921 ✭✭✭MiNdGaM3


    My station is now saying 8.6C, a drop of 4C in just over 2 hours. I also recorded a pressure drop of 22hPa in the 21 hours up to 7am this morning. The rain is just beginning to ease also.

    Wonderful squall line on this front dividing the mild from the cold.

    For once i can scientifically say that we have had at least just under 3 inches since 1pm yesterday. I know this because I cremated some bacon and left the smoking tray outside which is almost 3 inches deep and it was overflowing this morning.
    That and the river is about to burst too.

    LOL when I read that I thought you were thinking about wreaking the place! :pac:

    Squally night in Dromahair. Some floods on the roads this morning. The fields are flooded and the river Bonet is very swollen. Stopped raining for now, plenty grey sky looming overhead. Not windy just now either.
