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.

Cell going up near Naas again?

Hopping rain here, only one flash and a rumble, can feel it in the air though, it must be close.

Viva La Gloria

reporting from under the covers in Wicklow. No thunder for the last few minutes, hoping it stays that way!!

Larbre34

Torrents of big drops going on and off like a switch here in D15, quite bizarre. No TN or LT

Light show over east Cork was absolutly spectacular. We have a view looking North over the city and it looked so incredible.

Zilch in Celbridge at the moment, very quiet and still. Lots of heavy rain earlier but completely stopped now! Really hope it livens up

Yeah, last year's storm in Cork was incredible. I know there are a couple of videos on You Tube from Ballincollig. My God, I never heard thunder like it here before. As for Dublin, the night is still young, so anything is possible

Oscar_Mike, those pictures are amazing!

Heavyish rain + odd flash at the moment here in Shankill. One louder rumble just now as well.

Two flashes I have seen towards cork city in last 10 mins. Lights flickering.
Located 20 mls west of the city

Sounds like some areas getting wind shear. Dead calm here beneath heavy rain

maquiladora

Over Lucan heading north, getting more intense.

Surely that one northwest of Kilkenny City is ready to pop too.

leahyl

Dead quiet in the city now.... :-( I want a storm god dammit! :-D

Rikand

not a thing in athlone - the whole country either side of us getting a hammering and we got dead calm and feck all in the sky

Musefan

Heavy rain and a little bit of wind in D6 now

The Midleton area in East Cork seems to have had a constant storm overhead for the past hour, and only a few flashes and rumbles in the city! Incredible, its amazing the difference a few kilometres makes.
