    Wexford match goes ahead for whoever was asking about it last night. I live a minute walk from the park, hasn't rained since about 5am and it's windy now but nothing bad at all.

    Another big lightening strike in Sneem, power out everywhere in and around Sneem.

    Not too bad in between the showers near Limerick City. But the winds do Really pick up in showers and we're probably in some severe or maybe violent gusts today. Went to a local dance last night and driving home noticed quite a few twigs and small logs on the road.

    Squall just passed through macroom & was expecting the wind to pick up behind it but there isnt a blade of grass moving. Must drive to killarney and back between 11.30 & 3.30. Hopefully it wont be too bad but please let me know if ye think it will be.

    At some stage during the morning my station recorded a wind gust of 70mph in Galway

    I am just back from a walk, along the shore, that I have done literally thousands of times. This is the strongest wind I have ever experienced & the local farmer agrees. At times we were struggling to stay on our feet.

    Grand morning here in county limerick dog walked not a bother and shes outside happy out in the sunshine. Not seeing much to warrant a orange warning yet. maybe later.

    Just back from high tide at Doolin pier, pretty high alright. Took the pic from inside a vehicle, couple of idiots were moving a bit too close to the sea. One guy got a bit freaked out when water came way up the slipway to meet him. Wasn't long getting out of the way then!

    Just had the same clap in Ballintemple, cork city. My wife was watching hailstones on a velux window and was blinded for a second, then an almighty bang almost immediately after.

    Dogs have just about settled down ...

    I’m on the Northside - literally thought the house was gonna come in around us!

    Sky still looking ominous so I’d say we can expect more

    Waiting for the reports to start flooding in as this make its way across land.
    Anyone around Ennis?

    I can hear distant rumbles and the wind has increased ahead of it, some lovely people have their horses left out on a piece of rough land behind us.

    Attacking windows and shrieking ….wolf howls...

    A purple warning.. Looks terrifying.. Is that what this sudden fracas is? Never seen or heard the like.

    Cork a few mins ago.

    I have motion detection on and it glitched right as the lightning struck. You can actually hear the window vibrating off against the lens. Loudest bang I ever heard honestly!

    Because the winds aren't high enough for it. Impressive system alright, lucky it's out in the Atlantic.
