    Can anyone recommend a good weather app?

    Don't know if they have apps, but http://www.forecast.io and http://www.yr.no are good.

    yr.no is a Norwegian site and good for long-range forecasts

    forecast.io can give you visuals on the next three hours - click on 'local' for where you are, or 'regional' for (scary right now) Ireland centred on Ireland and out to the Atlantic and Europe. You can put the nearest city as your location, and set the temperature to centigrade or fahrenheit.

    EURO4 ramps up that second depression that crosses the country overnight. Sustained winds 90+ km/h at sea off the south coast here.

    Utter chaos in South Carlow. Good few roads are impassable. What should be a 10 minute journey took 45 minutes.

    Been raining pretty much since 3/4 am in Sligo. At its heaviest now. Rivers running though the town, and I'm not talking about the Garavouge.

    And still Muppets drive with no lights on.

    How do people do this... Seriously..

    Sitting here in my office, feeling very smug that i got my lunch on the way in, rather than nipping out at lunchtime. Thanks to this thread.

    What can only be described as vile weather today.

    Sure most people drive around in a frightened half-dream at the moment. When I'm on my bike there's times I'm desperately trying to attract a driver's attention and they seem to be driving automatically, off in another world, unaware that they're driving a couple of tons of metal with an engine and crushing, crashing danger.

    Because they don't think of the people wanting to see them, only about themselves being able to see. Not just in bad weather, any time light levels are low (dusk and dawn).

    Remember that after this rain clears away later in the afternoon there will be a second depression with more heavy frontal rain pushing in overnight into tomorrow morning.

    Calm here in Cork after significant rainfall. Approximately what time is the 2nd band due to hit?

    From around 9pm, though it should be the eastern half of the country that will get the heavy stuff from that, Cork might not be too bad.

    For once we're not taking the brunt of it here in the West. Been keeping an eye on the radar all morning and it looks pretty bad on the East coast. The ground was already quite wet and with this band of rain and the one to come in tonight there could be some significant flooding.
