7 strikes around the Tallaght area.

The rain is becoming much more persistent in the city center area now, could be some commuting problems later if this keeps up.

Seems to be kicking off in Donegal too in the last half hour or so.

Small cell over the Burren has grown and intensified on last radar update, could be heading for Galway/Spiddal...

Shouldn't there be some sort of flood warning from someone - this could potentially lead to some type of commuter gridlock nightmare in 15-30 mins time, imho!

A loud crash of thunder heard just now in Dublin city center.

This cell heading into Galway Bay just became active.
Watching very closely for direction of travel...

Looks too far west for me.

Maybe heading straight for Tuam. That might mean something to someone.

And another just now.

Jeeze, a very bright flash of lightning just now in the city center (did I hear sort of a 'click' at the time?!) quickly followed by some very loud thunder.
