    Yeah, not a patch on 1985, but that was extreme.

    1985 was the Dogs..... I could tell stories. I'm lucky that I witnessed the snow of '82, electrical storms of 85 and 86 and Hurricane Charlie!

    It was a bit before my time, but I've heard and read many things about it :) Twitter and Facebook went mad very briefly with posts from those in Dublin, but the hype died down very quickly. My desk lamp flickered a couple of times, I could have sworn I heard thunder, but that was it!

    The only two thunderstorms I remember at night was the one from 1997 (I think it was), and during the snow of 2010.

    Looks like the breadth of ppn on the radar is increasing with every update. The whole country is starting to bubble. I did not expect this. Long night ahead. Multiple storms.

    Finally power is back!

    Probably a main fuse at a sub station.
    Also when thunder is bad in an area,Esb technicians flick the switches to save damage.

    Last year's one here in Cork around June was incredible. One of the loudest I've heard, and torrential rain as well.

    Lots of great flashes there for the last 20 mins or so. Our lights and stuff went off for a bit. No thunder though.

    Great view of it from where we are.
