    Bit of a chance of thundery downpours in the SE, E and NE on Tues with the outer rain bands from the LP centered over the UK moving in over the Eastern side of the country. Very little deep layer shear available, some low level shear and convergence down along the coasts Temps getting up to the high teens.

    I guess People aren't getting their hopes up. Likely not to be anything anyway.

    We had some serious rainfall in Macroom this evening, felt very thundery at times. Been hoping for thunder the last few weeks so hopefully we might get some later on.

    The air definitely needed this bit of rain. Stood out in it earlier and it was delightful.

    It's not looking likely really. The bulk of that unstable stuff is due to stay in the Celtic Sea as the low heads into Britain.

    I'd say some spot flooding in west/northwest of the city over the next hour or so.

    Developed quite suddenly that looking at radar. First murmured over North County Dublin then develops as it moved south over the city into a nice shower.

    Be interesting to see how that second band in the Irish sea develops once hitting land. Could be just as explosive.

    If the shores were regularly cleared by the council, it would reduce the flooding! Temp of 17C in that shower.

    Is that firing down on Dublin or just North of it?

    Unclear - has to reach the shore first then the cloud tops can erupt again.
