Maybe if you read the warning you'll see that it's valid from 11pm tonight till 5pm tomorrow...

If your arse is getting an Orange wind warning, you might want to cut down on the beans

Just hope Met eireann have got this one right

Egg on their faces a few weeks ago. They need a win this time.

If you were any more stupid you'd have to be watered twice a week, honestly.

How did they have eggs on their faces? People died, thousands had no power for days, roads blocked all over the place with falling trees. Some of the winds were stronger than Ophelia and Darwin.

That’s my point! They got hauled over the coals for not publicising it enough. Remember the scenes at the ploughing match? And as you say more importantly ppl actually died

I’ve reached level 2 on trampoline disassembly... it was looking dodgy there for a minute.

My amateur skills on nullschool. Should it not be a little closer by now.

Welp. They'll get "collected" alright but he might have to go fetch them from the next county over.

You need to drive down to Salthill prom, look out at the sea for the night and laugh at the fools who took this warning seriously.

They did put out warnings just many ignored thinking they knew better.

Secure your wheelie bins tonight, they get scared in the wind and wander off. If it is your bin day tomorrow please leave it until the morning before you let your bin out. They can cause mayhem on the streets and road. #StormCallum

And if you miss your collection, the company will say tough ****.

I’ve see Thorntons collect my bins anytime between 6am and 6pm in rathfarnham.

People ignore warnings that aren't red as employers etc still expect you to be at work. So everyone operates as normal.

It's kind of like a domino effect. If important things like schools and transport stop, everything else follows
