    Just finished here in Rathmines. Same thing. Car alarms. Mental. Had my headphones on but they started fritzing. Took em off sharpish. Great show though. Hope not too much damage.

    Strong advice, go check on your cars, My two nearly just got wrecked, have them moved to a safe distance, and I am like I just got out of a power shower, the water is not even cold it warm :eek:

    Just heard it there a minute or two ago. I can hear it raining too. Hope this doesn't mean an end to the good weather. The thunder is sounding more and more violent by the minute.


    If this was a film, it'd be a perfect night for someone to chase me out of my house so i could slip and fall in the garden :(

    Just drove from Dun Laoighaire to Dublin, the N11 is flooded pretty badly. I thought my little car wouldn't get through it.

    Seems to be starting up again, can't hear the thunder, can see the lighting though, the rain is bucketing down.

    The beauty of being partially deaf is, if I take out my hearing aid I won't hear a breeze :D
