My Word, that's massive, no indication of this scale on the scanner. Many Thanks.

No sign of the M6 buoy coming back online. It was pretty close to the center when it last reported at 12. Since then....nadda.

Is the system manifesting itself on a more widespread basis than expected? Gusts to 50kts right down the west and south west coasts so far. The recent movement of the Low looks a bit more erratic to the south than anticipated perhaps?

Gone Very Dark in Naas

North Clare: Cloud lifting and the sky is lightening now. Fully expect a bit of blue sky at least in the next while. Still breezy but not too bad as yet.

The wind has gone here in North Mayo. Still raining with a gentle breeze...

The most intense burst of rain I've ever experienced just passed through. Perhaps from a small squall line forming behind the main area of heavy rain

SpaceTime

It's gone totally calm in Cork now!

Lots of ESB faults popping up across the country and the main event hasn't started yet. get the fire on and the candles out of the box

That was a very fast squall line passed through Fermoy, really brightening up now and almost a glimpse of clear skies.
