    Windy and mild here with no rain.

    Got a good dose of rain early this morning i could hear it on the roof windows.

    Looks like the cloud might be breaking up.

    Had to lift up shore cover in back yard to prevent flooding in kitchen. Attempt to get to local shops failed as roads impassable, at least on foot (without wellies) - even motorists turned back. Anyone have any measurements on rainfall so far?

    My thoughts go out to anyone on the flood plains. It must be flooded in Drumcondra if it's this bad in Glasnevin North/Ballymun which is higher up.

    Yup:p

    Torrential the rain has been here with several +80mm/hr. Once or twice a year i maybe get something like that but i counted 8 different times it got over that with 129.5mm/hr at the peak. Lightning was kewel too. 2 direct overheads with an almighty crack at one stage and lots of IC and CC(cloud to cloud) No cloud to grounds i saw but it was an exceptional event.

    Bet you feel at ease now.:D
