RIP Summer 2013

GIF: Ireland is swallowed whole by a terrifying rain demon

We, for one, welcome our new precipitous overlords.

YESTERDAY WE BROUGHT you an animated GIF showing how Ireland’s heat wave had come to a pretty dramatic end.

Today, as a follow up, we bring you the horrifying image of Ireland being swallowed whole by some kind of rain demon, stitching together images from Met Éireann’s rainfall radar, which updates every 15 minutes.

The GIF starts at 9:15am and ends at 8pm.

We beg our new precipitous overlord to go easy on us.

Read: Good morning. Here is the picture which confirms that summer is over
