    ASCAT winds at 20:07. You can see the core of strongest winds just off the west coast, with a single 50-knot vector in there.

    A couple of big gusts now in Galway coming from an unusual direction, normally hits the front of the house from the west, this is more of a North westerly direction.

    Am I imagining it getting stronger in cork city or is it that the wind is changing direction?

    North Kildare is a yellow warning but it’s getting gusty out. Debating whether I need to get up and tie down the bins or am I being silly?

    Reports of a trampoline flying into the road in Turners Cross, and the winds sound like they're getting stronger instead of weaker in Douglas...

    Wind very strong here just north of Arklow now. Really strong gusts blowing through the past hour or so. I hope a few precarious trees are still standing in the morning!

    In many cases, the front of the bins will fit snuggly under a rear of house window sill. - certainly in the last 3 places I have lived.

    A bale of briquettes or a bag of coal.

    A brick might be too light in areas of high gusts

    Unfortunately my bin has to sit out on the main road, or it don't get lifted. Hopefully it will stay upright.

    It's pretty out there at present, and some heavy showers that sound like hail.

    Anyone know how malin head is gusting recently?

    Exceptional gusts south Kildare. Dogs had to be forced out for their night-time piddles 😂

    Never seen them go so quickly 😂

    All four of us snuggled in the bed. Wife complaining about dogs getting better treatment than her.

    Real chaos at Cork airport tonight with numerous flights cancelled and diverted.

    Do any of the experts here know if what is coming on Thursday/Friday will be as bad as tonight?

    My house does this from time to time. Not tonight thankfully. Always makes me a bit nervous to be woken up to that.

    Just a regular stormy winter night in North Kildare and when I say stormy I mean that average winds are of strong breeze to near gale force strength with the the strongest gusts being gale force 8, touching 9. Was walking the dog in the past hour and it was fine. All in all, the weather tonight is exactly as I expected.
