    Radar signature on that storm east of Isle of White looks like a spiral galaxy

    Plenty of lightning and loud thunder the last 20 minutes out by Cooley, seems to have died off now though.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 23,934 ✭✭✭✭Kermit.de.frog


    I'm thinking an hour for cells to reach Dublin here.

    Finally something tangible developing up wind.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,233 ✭✭✭✭JCX BXC


    Showers developing in South Galway and East Clare now too, could turn into something of interest for those in the north west.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,382 ✭✭✭lolie


    Still flashing away in the distance to my northwest.
    The thunder and lightning south of here over Westmeath has stopped though


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 23,934 ✭✭✭✭Kermit.de.frog


    It's kicking off for some, shame most are in bed :(


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,220 ✭✭✭Davaeo09


    Am I right in thinking all of the action is happening too far north for Carlow/Kilkenny to have any chance at all tonight?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 23,934 ✭✭✭✭Kermit.de.frog


    Ok, for the moment storms (cells still quite small but developing) are on track for Dublin now things have kicked off over Wexford moving in to Wicklow now :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,233 ✭✭✭✭JCX BXC


    Now raining in West Clare but nothing showing on radar. Those showers really picking up juice to my east.

    Didn't think there'd be anything whatsoever this far west.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 470 ✭✭The Oort Cloud


    I have the Canon camera all set up on 200-iso and fast burst ready here in Dublin. As soon as I hear the slightest crackling I'm out the door trying to capture a few bolts. I'll be waiting.

    Individual people have different thoughts and understanding in regard to others opinions, but the problem is this... there are some people out there that will do everything in their power to cut you off when they do not like your opinion even when it is truth.

    Developing nicely.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,576 ✭✭✭patneve2


    Moderate rain shower S. Dublin coast. Nice little cells primed for SE and E. Coast pretty hit and miss but better than nothing. Hoping for a deluge or two 3-4am


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 23,934 ✭✭✭✭Kermit.de.frog


    Mortelaro must be seeing lightning in his area now around Arklow


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 24,371 ✭✭✭✭Larbre34


    Our fortunes flipped like a switch there, en route to the capital!

    Aye it's kicking off for some alright.

    Half an hour to 45 minutes for south greater Dublin I'd estimate

    Wow the sea seems to be throwing a couple of monsters right at Wed/Wicklow

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 23,934 ✭✭✭✭Kermit.de.frog


    Storm has reached Rathdrum, all good so far


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 985 ✭✭✭mountainy man


    Lots of flashes and rumbles here in SE Sligo now, didn't think it was going to spread this far west.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 16,994 ✭✭✭✭nacho libre


    Location?

    East Mayo.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 23,934 ✭✭✭✭Kermit.de.frog


    Cells developing now across the west Midlands in to Connaught, looking good for the northwest later

    Very cool watching that arc of showers in a line from west of Ennis up towards Drumshambo. Filling in quickly.
