Ha ha, nope, but I feel a little seasick after the last few hours, must get outside and check for damage.:eek:

If whats being discussed over in the cold weather threads comes to pass, we mightn't see one of these for a while going along this route.

Worst of it should be passing you now yes.

Still wild in East Clare, been out in it as one of my sheds blew over, had to flatten it and tarp the contents till daylight... Bum.

Still crazy windy here. Sounds even worse than Thursday. Another morning of cleaning up ahead me thinks.

Surely there must be damage around after this maq. Its the strongest storm we have had in these parts in a number of years.

Beginning to shake shake shake here now! One really big gust that wooshed through the house.

gone quiet here in cork

Chicken Run

Wish it'd go quiet here, I'd like to go to bed... And not have to get up and recapture any more flying sheds thank you... On the plus side, I have some wine...

Cold weather regime possibly dominated by a mainly easterly airflow being discussed elsewhere means the current conditions won't occur.

County waterford extremely bad now... way worse that the last winds...how long is this supposed to last lads because it's actually scarey:(

I was in Florida during hurricane Charley (2004), believe me, you have never experienced a real storm.

Aaah thats a pity, i love when its wild outside !

WolfeIRE

perfectly calm and still here in west clare for the past hr. Looking at the radar the rain has been sitting over the eastern half of county clare since then. Some serious heavy rain which must be leading to spot flooding.

Again I can't stress how calm it is here. very mild at 11c too.

Sure you could the same about any weather we get here in Ireland. Fact is it's a stormy night by our standards here in the south east.

Mayo Exile

True, its a stormy night by our standards, but the storm (hurricane) Jimmy Garlic talks about, moved ashore in Florida with sustained windspeeds of 140+ mph!

Wertz

further intensity in the wind now in Dundalk, definitiley had sustained above 50mph and gusts to 65+
Monstrous whistling howl coming in off the bay.

Harps

Its been windy here all evening, some heavy rain as well but nothing whatsoever compared to last week. Strong wind and a bit of rain for a few hours I wouldnt class as a real storm
