THERE HAVE BEEN periods of rainfall throughout parts of the country today in advance of thunderstorms in many counties.
A Status Yellow rain and thunderstorm warning has been issued by forecaster Met Éireann for Clare, Kerry, Limerick and Galway from 7pm. It will remain in place until 7am tomorrow.
An earlier warning for Leinster has since elapsed.
Expect heavy spells of rain in the west with thunderstorms also possible.
Difficult travelling conditions are in store in the four counties impacted, with surface water flooding and lightning damage also a possibility.
Overall, the temperatures today are far cooler and fresher than the soaring temperatures of recent days.
