Red Alert

caustic 1

Ok Met Eireann have upgraded the storm heading this way to red alert. I'm beginning to get scared now, seriously, I don't ever remember a red alert EVER, and Donegal to be worst hit... we're doomed I tell you doomed.

Anyone else scared? What should we do?

Have thought on getting absolutely bladdered in the hope of passing out till it's over not really helpful to the kids though. Maybe we should get on a plane now.

I used climb the huge sycamore trees nearby and pretend I was on a ship on a stormy ocean

I miss the wild storms of west clare.

It's a bit like the guards and the warnings they will be out in force over Christmas.

Sun shining here in Malin Head, I've just put a washing out and going to sun myself on the roof for a while.

Ah but great drying weather.
Don't hang the duvet out though that would be a whur to take down in a rush.

What Boards should do is close that forum and ban anyone with an interest in weather. Coz we all know that storms are just attention seekers and will feck of somewhere else if they think no-one is interested.

Here's a salad of posts from the thread concerning this 'storm':

Office windows starting to rattle a bit in Mayo

Leeson Street, Dublin and the leaves on the trees are starting to flutter...

And so it begins, wind starting to pick up in Galway, pity I have work later.

So we're not missing much. The more people die and the more chaos and national destruction a storm will bring - you'll hear an orgy of celebration from the weather forum.

The Mrs and me are gonna enjoy an Indian takeaway, then have a marathon sex session tonight.

The weather man predicts it's gonna be wet and windy in places. ..

Weather man bang on

You might not need a plane if you stand the right way and employ BoneyArsebogman's technique. Wheee!:pac:

Go to nearest DIY store.
Purchase hatches.
Batten said hatches down.
Problem solved.

Wind Warning for Donegal, Galway, Leitrim, Mayo and Sligo

Warning update.
It will become stormy later today and for a time tonight, in coastal counties of Connacht and west Ulster, with severe southwest winds with mean speeds of 70 to 90km/h and damaging gusts of 120 to 150km/h, strongest in exposed coastal areas. Very high seas also.

Well, that's a bit disappointing for a red alert.
