Kerrydude1981

Had heavy rain here earlier on but dry now,there was some bird on Radio Kerry there from the met office saying the worst of the rain had passed over the county and there would be strong winds and showers hitting Kerry in the afternoon but not too serious,then Alan Hughes comes on TV3 and says there will be hurricane like conditions hitting the south west this afternoon with torrential rain,like come on is it one or the other

Hold on . . . . hold on [does shifty eyes]

This is just a wet day like all the other wet days, we've been tricked :eek:
The government are up to something & are using this "rain shower" to divert attention.
From friend Jim from Louth is on the case.

The rain at 4am this morning woke me up, was very heavy.

It was good timing tho as I was bursting for a piss so I got the ould pisshorn out, pushed it down and aimed it as best I could at the jax, closed me eyes as if to keep sleeping, shook the monsignor, washed me hands, back into the cot and off to the land of nod once again!

JohnMarston

You dubs getting off easy with the rain are you?

charlietheminxx

Yeah it was extremely heavy for all of 5 mins in Dublin city centre.... now it just looks like any other drizzly morning.
