    Sunny with a cloudy overcast feeling, dry but could end up being wet, windy with a strong chance of some wind here in Rathfarnham. Oh and snow on the mountains,only 1 or 2 miles away that I cant bloody get too as I am still house bound......:mad:

    Heavy hail shower, still drifts of snow around after Tuesday's blizzard, depths in the drifts still at the 3ft mark.
    Looks like snow for Easter will still be around.

    Met Eireann radar's on drugs again this evening, with a wide belt of anaprop down the midlands. It's beyond a joke at this stage. :rolleyes:

    I agree. Met radar is not performing well at all over the last while. Once again, it is raining steadily here with rain rate averaging between 1.8mm/ph and 2.2mm/ph. Yet on the latest radar sequence:

    109811.gif

    the returns show nothing, once again disappearing over north Galway/south Mayo (1.4mm recorded between 7pm and 8pm at Claremorris) only to reappear once again exactly on the east Galway border eastwards, as well as in the NW Roscommon region. Exactly the same area as in the last belts of rain we got over the last week.

    I am not sure, but I think met eireann calculate a lot of monthly rainfall from the radar returns. If that is the case, it is going to be way out both this month and last month.

    Heavy rain in Castlebar now for the past hour or so and a rumble of thunder in the last 10 minutes,a bit unusual from a typical system like this.

    In south Kerry:

    Wind speed has dropped in last half hour from average of 25mph (Gusts 35mph) to less than 10mph.

    Rain had just reached 24mm for the day by 8pm but is struggling to make up much more.

    Temp: 8.3




    P.S. Indoor temp in now a balmy 23c in front of a roaring fire :cool:


    Edit: By the time I got up this morning the rain since the start of this event had gotten up to 37.5mm after some serious downfalls at about 4am. Sun shining here now tho.
