Its looking like the Irish sea might be winding down for the night. The 20:30 radar doesnt seem to have much forming further out to sea near the isle of man..one big shower coming in over Dublin on it tho!

The Dublin radar has gone offline at 20.30, thats why there's nothing to be seen.

Nothing but a graupel shower every hour or so here in wex town even though the radar has us under constant precipitation :rolleyes:

Still 4 inches on the ground so not that annoyed but would be nice to look at all the same.

The dog is refusing to move, asked him if he wanted to go for a walk and he just looked at me tilted his head, sighed and went back to sleep.
