    Attempt #112 over the last few years for a storm to healthily make it over the Wicklow Mts. and give Dublin a proper bash. Stay tuned.


    EDIT: Echo the thoughts on the MetE radar. Absolutely chronic across mutliple devices. So slow and laggy.

    The thunder and lightning over Rathdrum here was very intense for about 15 minutes. Lost power a couple of times and the glass in one window made a big cracking sound. Biblical rain falling now.

    Lots of thunder on the Wicklow coastline, will this magically lose all it's thunder and lightning before reaching Meath and Dublin I wonder.

    On the DART just after Bray. Lots of flashing cloud and can hear the thunder over the noise of the train!

    I'd be very concerned for the likes of Arklow and Gorey, maybe Wicklow town. Apart from the copious amounts of lightning, rain rates are at flash flood levels. The nearby mountains will not help the situation at all

    Agree. Performance on the rainfall radar is deeply frustrating and very slow

    That major band of thunder and lightning seems to have passed the Rathdrum area now. Still raining hard but the intensity is gone out of it.

    Lightning/thunder pretty much overhead in Dunlaoghaire.

    Feels like I am storm chasing by train!

    you know it’s close when you see a flash during daylight.

    Getting closer now, very long rumble after what looked like a double flash but not sure it happens so quickly?
