    Lights flickering here in Wexford too, the south coast is getting their worst winds around now and for next couple of hours, switching to the west coasts for the really extreme stuff afterwards, Stay safe and candlelit everyone!

    Not a single flight in the air worldwide heading for an Irish airport. This only ever occurs Christmas day and during severe weather events like this.

    Just been outside, relatively calm on the ground but the lower clouds are sculling past very fast and there is a complete blackness to the south west. West Roscommon. Calm before the storm.

    The spots getting properly hit are deathly quiet at present it seems. The rest that are getting excited are experiencing mere preludes or utter irrelevances
