    Just when you think it is all over, a massive boom towards the end of the front passing through here (West Laois). No hail though, just heavy rain.

    There was a flash and a big rumble of thunder in Clondalkin around five minutes ago. There didn't seem to be much between the flash and the rumble!

    Looking at the radar echo's I can't help but feel that this event has peaked.

    Lots of small but beefy cells developing in SW areas in the past hour and moving nicely NE into southern midland areas now. This evening could be very interesting as we reach peak potential in the coming few hours. It's not over yet.

    Cracking storm with monsoon like rain just passed over near Enfield. Kilcock will have got some show. Have counted 14 rumbles and cracks in the past 10 minutes. Shows up well on radar, if you look around Kilcock.

    Small but very electrified!

    A brief downpour near Limerick city. You think it bad enough for thunder but there is no spark in it yet as I post.
