Heavy showers raining down across the capital on Tuesday didn't stop tourists and locals from enjoying a day out on Dublin's streets
Tourists, commuters, locals and blow-ins all braved the torrential rain across the capital on Tuesday, not allowing a typical Irish summer to dampen any plans on a wet and miserable day.
Issued on Monday, with plenty of time to get your jacket and prepare for the rain, and coming into effect at 4am on Tuesday morning, continuing into Wednesday for most counties, many people around the capital decided some rain wasn’t going to hamper a day out.READ MORE: Ireland weather LIVE updates as 24-hour Met Eireann warning to hit all four provinces
Families, tourists snapping pictures and everyday commuters could be seen outside the entrance to St Stephen’s Green, all with rain jackets zipped up and umbrellas opened. Others were spotted walking up along the banks of the Liffey as wind and rain poured down and cars drove past. Others moved quickly across the Ha'penny Bridge as showers rained from the heavens, some not bothered by the downpour casually walking without any head coverings at all, while those all along Grafton Street were forced to seek refuge in some of the shops as the rain hit.
