any one else see that flash around cork city about 5 minutes ago?

Yes! I thought I was imagining things.

The wind hasn't really picked up here in Cork city yet. The rain is coming down heavily though.

The wind was mad earlier this evening out Blarney / Whitechurch direction.

Yeah - I think people in the East are going to get a shock tomorrow. The 18Z run looks very severe for the likes of the Dublin area from 9am till well into the afternoon
