TAFS looking even more harsh this morning. Cork has a tempo of 35kts Gusting 54kts at 190 degrees between 9pm-12am. I know operator's don't have headwind limits, but surely that's getting a bit strong for anything to land?

Sure that'd send the poor little Stobarts backwards

Windshear is the problem there.

Looks like there will be strenghtening southerly wind ahead of an approaching cold front, perhaps gusting close to 50kts. However, the direction looks okay, but as it veers SSW may be one or two issues.

Forecast is giving 180 degrees 20kts G 30kts
BECMG 9pm-11pm 190 degrees 25kts G 41kts
BECMG 2am-4am 230 degrees 20kts G 30kts.

Looks like RWY16 will be able to handle the stronger winds without problems. May be bumpy and some holding possible.

Getting very busy in the Irish Sea now. Lots of planes on route home to Dublin for Christmas.

wouldnt it be a normal night, just every plane is more full?

Slightly more flights, but the delays at Dublin are not due to that, they are due to the use of RWY16.

Isn't it. Lots of action over my house tonight. We don't usually get much low flying action round Naaaaaaavan.

The use of 16 always seems to slow things down, is it just due to the lack of fast taxiways or is a taxiing issue in general?

EI725 just gone round at Cork

RYR8RB (449 from Liverpool) just gone around at Dublin quoting "unstable approach"

I'd be very surprised if it didn't considering the wind.

Was on that flight. Was interesting with the weather to say the least!!

It's just that with the mean direction at 210 the individual gusts will usually be from a more westerly direction (gusts usually come from the right of the mean direction), meaning they would probably be fully across the runway. When the runway is wet the crosswind limits come down considerably, so we could then be into the territory where a 30-kt gust is at the limit of say a Stobart.
