    While out on the bike a while ago I heard Rumbling near Castledermot, but was more over Baltinglass or heading that direction, heard more a few mins ago.

    It's blowing around me all the time hear it again in the distance, appears to be coming this way the veers around me. But I see impressive cloud formations today.

    I hear Thunder the other side now but looking at the radar all the showers seem to be bypassing me, typical !!!

    That one that went through Naas looks unreal! And heading straight for Dublin!

    Good few rumbles around Bagenalstown. Electricity flicked off twice.

    Not far from you. Thought it was in Ballinkillen where it was coming from. Power flicked off once here.

    Cleared Naas, nice and bright now - can still hear the cloud rumbling towards Dublin - we've got another system coming towards us from the south west, hopefully it puts on a show too.

    Shag all here apart from a few spots of rain, can see some big anvils in the distance but they seem to be bypassing this location for now.

    Have a weather station?, why not join the Ireland Weather Network - http://irelandweather.eu/

    Drogheda is shaking with the thunder, lightning hard to see but the odd flash, it's brilliant no rain!

    Continuous thunder and lightning here from small cell to the south of me
    about 2 bangs a minute,connected rumbles


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 626 ✭✭✭Not


    Starting to hear second wave incoming south Meath.

    Anyone in flood prone areas of South Dublin take precautions. That's a very nasty bit of weather approaching.


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,677 ✭✭✭Rougies


    The more intense stuff in the Naas cell took a big shift SE in the latest frame, Starting to rain here now, can't here thunder anymore, think we're gonna catch the northern edge of it here.

    A lot of rattles and bangs for about 20 minutes, 30 seconds of tropical rain, in among a shower, and it's all moved on now.

    Shore, if it was easy, everybody would be doin it.😁

    Big cell heading towards Bray/Greystones. Lots of lightning. Might be weakening a little now though.

    Seems like it's turned south and heading for Wicklow instead !

    Gone quiet here in south Meath, very quiet, that second band doesn't appear to have any activity in it.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 510 ✭✭✭dopolahpec

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 438 ✭✭xXxkorixXx
