More rain and ‘thundery downpours’ forecast with even longer showers due tonight
It couldn’t possibly rain any more than it did last night, right?
Wrong.
Met Éireann is predicting deluge after deluge in its Hump Day forecast, kicking off with widespread showers across Munster today.
Many will be heavy with localised thundery downpours possibly leading to spot flooding, while temperatures will remain warm hovering between 17 to 20 degrees.
Wednesday night will bring further showers and longer spells of rain after dark as temperatures dip to 13 or 14 degrees.
“Tomorrow, Thursday, there’ll be sunny spells with showers, some heavy with a possibility of thunder.” said a forecaster.
“Showers will become isolated later in the day.”
