    Just home from pub near Galway City near the Bay. Walked home. I don't think I ever got as wet from the rain. There is a strong breeze but not bad yet.

    Gusts look higher and so does sustained wind speed at around 2am on charts I've been looking at. Going from 100 to 110/120

    Highest speed in Cork so far has been about 100kph. There has been projected much higher wind speeds close to 130.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 101 ✭✭otherfrog


    I haven't heard a constant background howl of the wind like this, since Storm Ophelia.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,593 ✭✭✭A2LUE42


    Also Easy Clare, but calm here so far and still have power.

    Our predicted top gust on ME here in coastal West Connemara has been upgraded to 187kmph at 5am.

    Instantly regretted checking that before hopping into the cot.

    Sounded like one was coming in to land a few mins ago [over Balbriggan]



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 566 ✭✭✭Avon8


    Cant say I don't have some worry for Galway city atm. Hoping that great place is still in similar shape at lunchtime tomorrow



  • Moderators, Recreation & Hobbies Moderators Posts: 27,897 Mod ✭✭✭✭Posy


    Yeah, two have just landed in the last few minutes.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 25,109 ✭✭✭✭Kermit.de.frog


    I can make this out but on my mobile the formatting is screwed up just to let you know - in case it frustrates others.

    Oddly the formatting is right when I quote your post though.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,805 ✭✭✭Rougies


    Pretty rough here in central Wexford although exacerbated by the heavy rain pelting the house. Not expecting anything too extreme here but this is enough for me already thanks very much Eowyn, I like my roof being attached to my house.
