    I've to do a 4 hour walking tour of dublin and play two tag rugby matches tomorrow. Anyone have any suggestions for clothing? Do I go super waterproof and try to fight it, or do I go out with board shorts, flip flops and a hip flask of whiskey and embrace it?

    Will things get bad in Dublin? If so, in how long? I have an elderly relation whose home has a flooding issue. I want to warn them about the bad weather because it hasn't been well forecast, but at the same time I don't want to be waking them up in the middle of the night and panicking them. Will Dublin be hit severely before morning?

    Hopefully August will continue this summer's trend and produce at least one really fine week

    Thundery downpours here for most of the afternoon.
    I wonder is this rain as heavy as the rain we had back in November 2009? I ask because, while i was out of the country at the time, that rain led to major flooding - something that has never happened here before, at least not in my life time. I suppose the rain back then much have lasted a good deal longer, rather than being of any greater intensity.

    Cork City Council sent out a weather alert earlier on.

    I wish they would include the text in the SMS though rather than a web link...

    http://www.corkcity.ie/sw/
    Weather Warning : Code Level Orange

    Torrential downpours with severe thunderstorms.

    Valid from 15:01 Thursday 1-August-2013 until 06:00 Friday 2-August-2013


    It seems to be clearing up though.
