Met Éireann have issued a yellow weather warning for thunder as they forewarn of "dangerous" lightning strikes. A Status Yellow thunder warning is in place for all of Leinster, as well as Tipperary and Waterford. If you're in an open space, you don't want to be the only thing that's standing there because that attracts the lightning. There will be lightning strikes today in parts of east Munster and Leinster," she said. "Then we're getting an Atlantic regime setting in for the weekend and early days of next week and that will bring breezy conditions and some more rain and unsettled weather with temperatures back to normal."
