    Whoa... Getting vicious here in east Limerick. Say this'll be the worst of it. Trees, tiles and kayaks going flying in Shannon I hear.

    Yes between now and 4 would probably be around the peak of it there. Will drop off quite quickly after that as it zips east.

    Trees down and power outages already in Tipperary. Didn't think winds were that strong that far east yet, probably won't peak there for another hour or more.
    Not a great time to be on the road for the next couple of hours.

    Indeed, reports on the bay indicate Force 7 sustained now gusting Force 10, I really wouldnt fancy being on that Stena cruiseferry that just headed out past Howth.....
