    Huge flash in D14. Can't hear anything though. Scared the hell out of me for a second. I thought someone was outside flashing their light at me.

    May just be starting to quieten down here. Thunder down to 5 seconds at one point. Epicentre seems to be around Bray Head, which fits in with what Docarch thought.

    I thought there might be a bit tonight on my way home. Had that feeling in the air.

    Not seen any hear in Tallaght yet though.
    I'm hoping for at least one strike.

    Fuuck what the neighbours think! Do your own thing and if they have a problem with that, then tough for them. :)

    Gone very quite in south kilkenny. No thunder or lightning in about 45 mins. Getting breezy though, in contrast to the calm during the lightning

    Think I'll hit the hay but I'll have a quick look outside first. Doesn't sound like there's anything significant happening at the moment really and I'd rather sleep now. Mind you I have a hell of a headache here again so the lightening hasn't gone away I'd say. Always happens when the thunder and lightening is about.

    Same here, 45 minutes of nothing. Shows how quickly storms can die. One minute it's a nice display - the next nothing.
