    Sat in the car and it's bouncing around the place from the wind and gusts. Sits higher than Cara so getting an extra wallop. I can currently see a trampoline in the wild!

    My heroes, ESB engineers... Our supply now comes under the ocean and almost no cuts. The locals say that before that there were frequent cuts.. Only one in my time here... that last bad storm? Name eludes me. YOU know,,

    Belmullet's pressure reading of 969 hPa at 12pm is very probably the lowest land based reading on the entire planet currently. There are deeper depressions occurring at the moment, but they are concentrated over the oceans of the southern hemisphere.

    For my weather station....
    Darwin still holds the record for highest wind gust.
    Diana now has taken Darwin's record for sustained winds.

    Wasn't too much in that first wave here just west of Ennis, but once that gap in the rain bands past and the 2nd wave arrived, different animal altogether!
    A recent gust of 50mph here now.

    I am in Dublin today and heading to Tipperary at approx. 1630 (driving) - should I just stay put? It's fairly hairy out there at the mo...

    Eejits down my way in Wexford asking this morning if schools were open. I was tempted to reply with "No,sure it's only 8am,they don't open until 9".

    Not too bad in my location as there's a hill which is blocking the worst of the winds.
