So I think it's safe to assume that this won't be swinging inland as mentioned earlier?

Edit: just saw the post above mine!

The Met Eireann short range forecast seems to have shunted the rainfall even further west with the worst of it heading in a line along Cork-Limerick-Galway-Ballina.

To me the radar indicates differently? Western flank of the rain band (i.e. up along the east coast) really seem to have intensified out of very little.

Looking at satellite loop and radar i think a line from cork up to louth will be the worst effected from this wave.

Shall be interesting to see how long the lightning stays active for

Looking at the ECM, I'd say most places will see a good 6-7 hours of rain overnight though some areas will obviously get more than others.

Rain's back (here in south Dublin). As heavy as anything earlier today.

Your local LiveATC feeder (me), confirms, heavy rain in Knocklyon @ J12 M50.

I would guess that tonight it will go over 100mm for November so far here in Naas

Nothing at the minute in Kilkenny city. The nore was very flooded already tonight.

Some intense stuff showing up way off to the south off the French coast now. A long night of rain ahead. The lack of rain to the left of that is just due to it being at the edge of radar coverage.

As usual the hirlam model looks correct with heaviest rain further west than previously predicted.

And the torrents have started again now near Dungarvan.

30.5 mm so far today on waterfordcityweather.com, so wettest day of the year for that station now. And still bucketing down...

Absolutely torrential rain in Swords at the mo. Pelting off the window.

Very quiet in this area of West Limerick at the moment. Hope it's not going to pour down and keep us awake all night.

Chucking it down in Lusk, north county Dublin. Blakes Cross has flooded the whole way over for anyone who might need to drive that way.

Heavy rain here again in South Dublin, windows are open and the sound is very relaxing to me. I'll sleep soundly tonight. Dead calm nights are the ones that keep me awake :P

Nothing quiet like being tucked up in bed listening to it lashing outside...Off to sleep like a baby in no time:)

Rain starting to get Heavy in Kildare now

Sounds incredibly heavy for frontal rain in north Dublin. This would strike me as a potentially troublesome event for many. The orange warning is well warranted.

Heavy rain here in North Dublin, up from moderate 30 minutes a go.

Been watching this for the last hour waiting for Ireland to disappear.:o

Update from Met Eireann
13 November 2014 23:14


Heavy rain in all areas overnight with localised flooding and a possibility of thunder. It will become very windy for a time in east Munster, east Leinster and much of Ulster with very strong and gusty southeast winds. Lowest temperatures of 5 to 7 degrees

Not a drop of rain in Castlebar in the last 12 hours or so and barely a breeze, so jealous looking through these posts!

maquiladora

Eastern half of the country getting the worst of it for now anyway.



HIRLAM's forecast for midnight. It's a bit off.



The rain in Waterford now sounds heavier than this morning. Flooding will be bad tomorrow.

Rumble of thunder just now in wicklow
