Would you all advise against going for a run? I'm in Dublin and have cabin fever from being stuck inside all day.
Wind doesn't seem bad at the mo but not sure if the worst has passed?

Do you not have a tv or radio?

Was due to get some assignment briefs, no moodle either so missing 2 days of work has annoyed me, plus im heading away and missing next week its a travesty Joe.

Lol. You say you care about assignments and missed work but yet are pissing off for a week :pac:

Cmon. At least try to pretend you are a competent troll. Parodying yourself midpost is just embarrassing.

Just put on a motorbike helmet you'll be fine.

You'll look like a dick but then again you more than likely are if you're going for a run in those conditions.

I've always wanted to look like a dick. Will take your advice re the helmet. Might being a rain jacket too

And yet despite the absolute nationwide destruction there is w@nkers still swimming in the sea in Galway :mad:

Some people simply can't handle a storm like this, it gets all the attention and they feel left out, so they go for a run, a walk or swim and then do the important part, which is to let you know about it.

The boffins over at the weather forum are suggesting that another weather event could hit this Friday.

PS: Big shout out to everybody over there. Very informative stuff

What happened the man that died in Cahir?

I'd know his name but wouldn't have known him personally.

He was out on the Cahir / Ardfinnan road cutting a tree that had fallen / blocked the road and was hit by another limb of the tree falling directly onto him - nothing so graphic as an accident with a chansaw. I'm not sure if he was a member of the emergency services or not.

Not sure about this poor man that passed, but there was a guy in Marlfield cutting up fallen branches, collecting firewood. It takes all types.

I'm in North Cork, power went out for about 25 minutes at 6pm. It's after getting very blustery again here!

begbysback · 16-10-2017 05:45PM

It seems to me that maybe there are quite a few suffering from cabin fever on here today

Well said. Their attention seeking should be rewarded by a spell behind bars for endangering lives. Fúcktards.

Even an old wrinkly like me can see that this is humour.
There follows a storm of outraged opprobrium.

Luas, Dublin Bus, Irish Rail - Not running
Flights - Ah sure it'll be grand

Mental. Majority of flights departed and landed (safely of course) at Dublin Airport today. Wind direction was favourable but still....

This might help bring back some harmony to our beloved AH

I wonder might we see some sort of counter-intuitive statistical thing where, even with those who've unfortunately been caught by the storm and killed, there's a net-benefit to mortality in the nation because there's fewer people leaving their houses?

Sort of the opposite of what happened post September 11th where everyone in the States took car journeys because they couldn't fly so there was a huge spike in deaths on the road.

It's all become a bit humourless around here.

Getting a yellow card for this post is preposterous. Completely joyless moderation.

Hi all. I'd like to personally thank everyone who contributed greatly to this thread. The tenacity, the brotherhood was deep. I fear we're not through the worst yet. I'd say up unti 2am tonight before there's a let up so be vigiliant, be safe. I ought warn everyone that I've been studying the charts and I suspect we're in for another storm Friday. Keep vigilant. Although Friday may not be as strong as todays storm if people let their guard down then it could be catastrophic. We did really well today despite the government being ridiculously slow to declare it unsafe for all employees to travel to work. We're very lucky that we didnt have a bigger disaster on our hands due to their slowness to act. But please remain vigilant into the weekend and dont take any unnecessary risks, only this morning i heard of hikers being rescued off a mountain. Weather like this is not a challenge. The challenge is to be well informed and make sensible decisions of how you act.

Its almost like this isn't a comical situation!

donegaLroad · 16-10-2017 06:10PM

I think it has gone up around the coast.. it's just like a regular bad night here in Donegal. A bit of an anti climax. I might go for a pint later.

The_Valeyard · 16-10-2017 06:11PM

I think D15 is the worst now, than its been all day.
