    Some rainfall totals from WOW observations:

    Bunclody - 45.4mm
    Naas - 42.9mm
    Oak Park - 40.3mm
    Wexford Wildfowl Reserve - 35.6mm
    Thomastown (Mt. Juliet) - 35.1mm

    https://wow.metoffice.gov.uk/

    These sort of daily totals were so common here during the 2nd half of July & August that I'm almost numb to their significance.

    Nice morning in Dublin 5. 50% of average sunshine or less this week doesn't sound good!

    Nice sunny morning here but it's only just gone beyond 10 degrees at 10.3C. I've just been reminded by MT Cranium that we've just passed the Autumn equinox a few minutes ago so some people say we've just gone into Autumn.

    Dull and wet in Castlebar, but it is really the first time we have had persistent rain during morning/afternoon hours in nearly a week.

    rain arrived in Dunshaughlin too. The ground here has been wet since Saturday evening, I can see it staying wet for the next week with very little if any drying.

    I don't think I've seen the word 'thunder' mentioned so many times in a Met Eireann national forecast. https://www.met.ie/forecasts/national-forecast

    There will be no shortage of rain over the next week, could be more trouble for areas already effected from yesterday's flooding.

    It was like high summer and just a few days later it’s like the depths of winter. Definitely a winter sun holiday before Christmas.

    Not too bad today in Letterkenny, a mix of sun and cloud until mid afternoon when light rain started, some spits of rain all evening but no worse than most days all summer
