Introduction
The summer of 2008 saw many parts of the country affected by heavy rain and flooding.
Rainfall totals were above normal everywhere and were more than twice the average in
the east and southeast of the country.
This report contains an analysis of data from approximately 150 rainfall stations. For
most of these rainfall stations the rain depth is measured once a day at 0900UTC, a
smaller number of synoptic stations (13) record rainfall on an hourly basis or less. The
locations of the stations used in this report and the length of the rainfall records
considered are shown in Figure 1. The length of station records used varied between 4
and 68 years.
Data for each of the stations is included in tables in Appendices I, II and III. Appendix I
contains the monthly and seasonal total for each station, percent of 1961-1990 normal
values (if available), the maximum daily rainfall in the given month or season and the
number of rain days (a rain day is a day with >= 0.2mm of rain). Appendix II ranks the
total monthly and seasonal rainfall for the length of the station record, including year of
the maximum fall and most recent year when the 2008 total was exceeded. Appendix III
ranks the maximum daily fall for each month and the summer season for the length of
the station record, including date of the maximum daily fall and most recent date when
the 2008 maximum daily fall was exceeded. The tables are arranged by province in the
following order: Munster, Leinster, Connacht and Ulster. Within each province counties
are listed alphabetically.
The report begins with an overview of summer 2008, followed by a month-by-month
analysis of rainfall. Two case studies are included, the exceptional rainfall events in the
Newcastlewest area on July 31st and the north Kildare and north Dublin areas on August
9th.
Rainfall recording:
In this study rainfall depths are analysed from approximately 150 rainfall stations, these
are divided into two categories.
Synoptic Weather stations Reports from synoptic weather stations are made every hour
on the hour of basic weather parameters including rainfall, wind speed and direction,
temperature, humidity and air pressure. A smaller number of automatic stations record
rainfall at intervals of less than one hour.
Climatological and rainfall stations This is a denser network of stations which record a
more limited selection of data, rainfall and in some cases maximum and minimum
temperatures, usually once per day at 0900UTC. These data are communicated to Met
Éireann by post at the end of each month.
Note: Observations are made in UTC (Universal Coordinated Time), equivalent to GMT. This means
that during Irish Summer Time, one hour must be added to UTC to get local time. UTC is used
throughout this report.
Rainfall is measured in millimetres (mm). Unless otherwise stated, all data used in this
report is 24hr 0900-0900UTC; this can give rise to some apparent anomalies, e.g. the
0900-0900 total for Dublin Airport on 9th August 2008 is 68.3mm whereas the 0000-2400
total is 76.2mm.

Summer 2008
Rainfall totals were above normal everywhere and were more than twice normal in the
east and southeast of the country. Except for a few parts of the west and northwest, each
of the summer months was wetter than normal. There were some exceptionally heavy
daily falls throughout the season, particularly in the period from late July to mid-August.
Severe flooding was reported in west Limerick on July 31st, in the north Kildare and
Dublin regions on August 9th and in other areas between August 12th and 16th.
Rainfall was recorded over some parts of the country on each day between July 28th and
August 21st. Between 49 and 78 raindays (days with 0.2mm or more rainfall) were
recorded for the 3-month period, compared with the normal range for summer of
between 38 and 55 raindays. This led to a situation where the soil was near to saturation
for much of the time, meaning that the ground had no capacity to soak up large amounts
of rainfall. The Soil Moisture Deficit (SMD) can be used as an indication of how much
rainfall the ground can absorb before it becomes saturated. Soil Moisture Deficits for
4
Birr are shown below, compared to normal values. For much of July and almost all of
August values were 20mm below normal.

Notable features of Summer Rainfall
A daily fall of 90mm was recorded at Castlemahon, Co. Limerick, on July 31st, while
Belderrig, Co. Mayo, measured 102mm on August 13th; Dublin Airport’s 00-24hr fall of
76mm on August 9th was its second highest daily fall for summer on record, the highest
having occurred in June 1993. A 60-minute fall of 38.4mm at Shannon Airport on the
6th was the highest for any month in the station’s 63-year history.
Figure 2a shows the maximum daily fall during summer 2008 and its date of occurrence
for the summer season where the maximum daily fall was over 25mm, while figure 2b
gives the ranking for the summer total and daily maximum value. For most stations, the
summer total ranked in the top 3 for the length of the station record.
Example- Castlemahon in Co. Limerick had its highest summer 2008 daily rainfall total
of 90.1mm on 31st July (fig 2a), this was its highest ever summer daily rainfall and its
second highest summer rainfall total (fig 2b) in 27 years of record.
(Where some values are not shown because of clutter, please refer to tables in the appendices)
Climate change
This summer’s rainfall was caused by a succession of unstable low pressure centres
moving slowly across the country. The summer weather of 2008, though unusual, was far
from unprecedented. Similar summers in the past were those of 1986, 1985 and 1958.
Climate change predictions for rainfall in the summer season are for a 10-15% decrease
in rainfall in the 2020-2060 timeframe, which might seem at odds with summer 2008;
there are also predictions of more frequent intense rainfall events. The extreme rainfall
experienced during the summer of 2008 cannot be attributed to climate change. The
totals recorded fit within the range of natural variability, which is greater that the global
warming ‘signal’ at our geographic location.

June
Rainfall totals were above normal almost everywhere, with around twice the normal June
rainfall measured in the south and southeast of the country. Relatively little rain was
measured between the 7th and 16th, but some heavy falls were recorded at other times.
Many stations recorded their wettest day of the month on the 21st, when a band of heavy
rain was followed by widespread thunderstorms; 50mm of rain was measured on this day
in some places. Thundery showers were again recorded on the 26th. Between 14 and 27
raindays were measured (days with 0.2 mm or more rainfall), greater than the normal for
June of between 13 and 17.
Notable features of June Rainfall
In the northwest it was the wettest June on record in some places, with many stations
recording their greatest June daily rainfall.
Figure 3a shows the maximum daily fall and date of occurrence for the month where this
was over 25mm, while Figure 3b gives the ranking for the June total and daily maximum
value. Except in the north and east, rainfall totals for June ranked in the top 10, with
some stations in the west recording their wettest ever June.
Example- In Mayo, Belmullet recorded its wettest ever June day on the 21st and its third
wettest June ever in over 50 years of recording, while Belderring had its wettest June day
and greatest June total rainfall in 23 years of record. In Galway, Connemara National
Park had its wettest June day and wettest June in 27 years of record, while Roundstone
recorded its highest daily maximum and second highest monthly total in 24 years of
record.

July
July rainfall totals were near normal in parts of the northwest, but it was an exceptionally
wet month over most of Leinster and Munster, where rainfall totals for the month were
more than twice the July normal. Heaviest daily falls this month were in the periods 1st
to 6th and 28th to 31st. Late on the 31st, exceptionally heavy rain caused significant
flooding in parts of County Limerick. Between 15 and 23 raindays were recorded (days
with 0.2 mm or more rainfall), greater than the normal for July of between 13 and 18.
Notable features of July Rainfall
The most notable aspect of the rainfall in July was the extreme rainfall which occurred
between the 28th and 31st.
Figure 4a shows the maximum daily fall and date of occurrence for the month where the
daily rainfall was above 25mm, while Figure 5b gives the ranking for the July total and
daily maximum value. Except in the west and northwest, rainfall totals for July ranked in
the top 10. From Figure 4b it is clear that many stations in Munster and south Leinster
recorded their highest ever July daily rainfall values, and for many stations the month of
July was also the wettest on record.

Case Study- July 31st 2008
Early July was cool and unsettled, a period of warmer and relatively settled weather
developed in mid-July, but the weather became unsettled again towards the end of the
month. Rainfall totals for the 27th, 28th and 29th were between 25mm and 35mm in the
Limerick area, bringing soils close to saturation. The overall result is that there was little
or no capacity in the soil to absorb excessive amounts of rainfall.
During the evening of the 31st, an extreme rainfall event took place in the Newcastlewest
area of County Limerick, which caused severe flooding in the Arra Catchment. A
depression moved northwards over Ireland during the afternoon and evening; the
associated occlusion initially moved northwards, and then became slow-moving over the
midwest, bringing exceptionally heavy falls of rain to the west Limerick area.

Analysis of rainfall totals on July 31st
24-hour rainfall totals from rainfall stations in the area surrounding Newcastlewest are
shown in figure 5. Coverage in the Arra catchment is poor. However, it was possible to
combine the rainfall measurements with data from the weather radar at Shannon Airport,
and using geostatistical methods to produce an estimate of rainfall totals on a 1km grid;
this is shown in figure 6.
Figure 6
Rainfall totals Derived from radar data 31st July 2008
From the data used to generate figure 6, the maximum 24-hour grid point rainfall was
111mm, with 11 grid points having rainfall totals over 100mm, 28 having values between
90 and 100mm, 68 between 80 and 90mm, 164 between 70 and 80mm, 191 between 60
and 70 mm and 455 between 50 and 60mm.

Estimation of rainfall rates
Most of the stations in the main study area take rainfall readings once every 24 hours.
The station at Freemount Water Works is equipped with a tipping-bucket rain recorder.
From this it has been possible to estimate the start and end time of the most intense
rainfall and to apportion the 24-hour rainfall totals to sub-24 hour durations. Freemount
recorded 67mm in the 09-09 period, all of which fell in a 14-hour period from approx
1115UTC on 31st to 0115UTC on August 1st; the period of most intense rainfall lasted 7
hours, from 1730UTC until 0030UTC approx, during which time it is estimated that
63mm fell.
This leads to the following estimates of rainfall for 7-hour and 14-hour durations for
rainfall stations nearest the flooding event, and for the maximum rainfall depth from the
gridded rainfall field, Table 1.

Estimation of extreme rainfall return periods and rarity estimates
Met Éireann have recently completed a study, Estimation of Point Rainfall
Frequencies, funded by the OPW as part of the Flood Studies Update. This enables the
production of estimates of rainfall depths for various return periods and duration for any
location in Ireland. This depth duration frequency model can be used with confidence
for return periods of 250 years for durations of less than 24 hours, and return periods of
500 years for durations of 24 hours or more. The model can also be used to calculate
rarity estimates, i.e. with a given rainfall and duration, calculate the return period.
Note: The return period is the average number of years between years with one or more
rainfalls exceeding a specified value of the rainfall.
Rainfall return periods for the actual rainfalls recorded and those calculated are shown in
Table 2 for durations of 7, 14 and 24hrs. As previously stated, the model can be used
with confidence for return periods up to 250 years for durations of less than 24 hours. In
some instances the model return periods exceeded this value, but nonetheless it was
considered that some use could be made of the data. The following approach was
adopted: if the model gave return periods between 250 and 350 years, it is indicated by
>250yr, between 350 and 600 years by >>250yr, and for model results greater than 600
years by >>>250yr.

Conclusions:
The analysis of the data has shown that rainfall totals in the order of 60-100mm occurred
over an area of approximately 450km2 in west County Limerick and northwest County
Cork, with approximately 95% of the rain falling in a 7-hour period. Return period
analysis suggests that totals for 24 hours had return periods up to 250 years, while
amounts for 7-hour durations had return periods of well in excess of 250 years for totals
in excess of 70mm, which are estimated to have occurred over an area of approx 175
km2.

August
August rainfall totals were above normal everywhere, the third successive month of
wetter than normal weather. More than twice the normal August totals were recorded in
parts of the east, northeast and midlands, while some stations recorded over three times
the normal. The number of raindays recorded during the month (days with 0.2mm or
more rainfall) was also well above normal; there were between 20 and 30 raindays at
stations this month compared with the August average number of between 14 and 19.
Notable Features of August Rainfall
It was the wettest August on record at a number of stations, including Dublin (Phoenix
Park), where rainfall records began in 1837. Birr had its wettest August since 1917, while
Dublin Airport had both its highest monthly total (190mm) and highest one-day (0024hr) fall (76.2mm on the 9th) for August since the station opened in 1941. Among other
exceptional rainfall events this month, a 60-minute fall of 38.4mm at Shannon Airport on
the 6th was the highest for any month in the station’s 63-year history.
Flooding was reported in many areas. The heavy rain in the north Kildare and north
Dublin areas is the subject of a separate case study. On the 13th, the highest recorded
rainfall in the summer months occurred at Belderrrig in Co Mayo (102mm), with many
other locations in the northwest reporting in excess of 50mm. There were widespread
media reports of flooding. Flooding was also reported from Carlow on the 16th, but
amounts of rainfall around that date, while large, were not particularly excessive.
Figure 7a shows the maximum daily fall and date of occurrence for the month where the
daily rainfall was above 25mm, while Figure 7b gives the ranking for the August total and
daily maximum value. For many stations the monthly total ranked in the top 5, with
many having their wettest August on record, and some also their highest daily fall.

Case study- August 9th 2008
Development of Heavy Rainfall on 9th August 2008
A cold front moved eastwards over Ireland on August 9th, a very unstable airmass immediately
behind the cold front facilitated the development of thunderstorms in the east of Ireland
following the frontal passage. Outbreaks of rain had affected the area earlier in the day from
approx 0300 to 0800 UTC, bringing estimated totals of 6-8mm.
During the early afternoon, convective rain developed in the midlands. From about 1330UTC
onwards, a thunderstorm cell developed over west Offaly, then spread to north Kildare and
eventually covered most of county Dublin and south Meath. By 1600, Met Eireann stations at
Dublin Airport and Casement Aerodrome were reporting thunderstorms with very heavy rain.
Further bursts of heavy rain continued in the Dublin-Kildare-south Meath area until about 2230.
Large rainfall amounts were recorded, with Dublin Airport recording its largest daily fall for
August (76.2mm) and its second highest daily fall ever. There were widespread reports of
flooding in the north Kildare and north Dublin areas.
The weather conditions leading up to the heavy rainfall event were unsettled, with spells of rain
or showers most days. This led to a situation where soils were saturated or close to saturation.
Heavy rainfall (25-35mm) occurred on August 6th.
Analysis of rainfall totals on August 9th
The spatial coverage of rainfall stations is shown in Figure 8, along with the 24-hour totals
from 0900UTC on 9th to 0900UTC on 10th.
Figure 8
24hr Rainfall accumulations 9th August 2008

This coverage is not sufficient to provide for a spatial analysis, as rainfall totals varied
considerably over relative short distances. However, further information on the spatial rainfall
distribution can be obtained from the weather radar at Dublin Airport. This is then combined
with the actual rainfall readings to produce the gridded rainfall field shown in Figure 9:
Figure 9
Rainfall totals Derived from radar data 9th August 2008
Recorded rainfall intensities
Met Éireann stations at Dublin Airport, Casement Aerodrome and Phoenix Park report rainfall
totals every minute. At other locations, rainfall values are recorded once per day at 0900UTC.
From analysis of the minute-by-minute readings at the three Met Éireann locations, the major
rainfall episode began at 1500UTC approx and ended at 2000UTC approx. Rainfall amounts
21
recorded outside of this period amounted to less than 1mm, and are regarded as not significant in
terms of the overall rainfall amounts.
Analysis of the rainfall patterns from 0900UTC on the 8th to 0900UTC on the 9th show that all
of the rainfall during this period fell between 0000 and 0900UTC on the 9th, and was sufficient
to bring the Soil Moisture Deficits of all soils to saturation before the major rainfall event.
The total rainfall for the 00-24hr period on the 9th is effectively the sum of the rainfall totals for
the two 24-hour periods ending at 0900UTC on the 9th and 10th.
Further analysis of the data led to the conclusion that the totals recorded in the 0900-0900 period
actually fell within a 5-hour period, and the totals recorded in the 0000-2400 period fell within an
18-hour period.
Table 3 shows the 5-hour and 18-hour rainfall amounts corresponding to the 24-hour rainfall
totals ending at 0000UTC on the 10th and 0900UTC on the 10th respectively.

From the sub-hourly readings it was possible to estimate a maximum rainfall rate of between 100
and 130mm/hr, which was sustained for a period of approximately 5 minutes between 1515 and
1530UTC, depending on the location.

From analysis of the gridded rainfall fields, it is apparent that rainfall amounts varied greatly over
short distances. Return periods were also calculated for maximum rainfall totals as derived from
the gridded fields, in some cases the return periods were greatly in excess of 250 years.
Conclusions:
The analysis of the data has shown that rainfall on August 9th varied greatly over short distances.
Intensities to 120-130mm/hr were recorded over durations of 5 minutes approximately, 20-30%
of the rain fell within the first 15 minutes of the event, 30 to 40% of the rain fell within the first
30 minutes and 50 -60% of the rain fell within the first 60 minutes. Maximum rainfall totals of
100+mm occurred over small areas. Return periods became larger after 30 minutes duration and
increased up to the most extreme return periods which were for the 5-hour duration, which in
some instances exceeded the 250-year outer limit of the model.
