    I'm in Drogheda and it's the first time I've heard roof tiles move with strong gusts.

    Really? Why?

    You probably will be fine, the wind will be an almost direct headwind and will be light.

    Max gust of just 60km/h here. Bit surprised it's so low but we were always only on the outskirts of this.

    Those really are impressive cams. Not sure if i am more impressed with the power of the weather or that the cams seem to be surviving it. Built to last around there.

    In terms of gusts here, it was a non event.
    It would rank as the 4th windiest day of the week for gusts.
    On Tuesday had winds with mean speeds of just under 50km/hr gusting close to 80km/hr. For Gertrude 33km/hr mean speeds with highest gust of 61km/hr.

    Sometimes I wonder if we in the Deise are on a different planet to Met E, again as you say nothing more than a few gusty moments that were standard winter issue.
