      You can see where the swathe of high winds is just approaching southwest Galway, it is within that area where the wind is at its strongest.

      I have outlined it in red box.

      Is this still heading for Northwest Donegal? I have a class tonight at 7pm and don't know if I should cancel or not

      Yes, northwest Donegal is at risk of sustained violent storm force winds gusting Hurricane force, but i cannot advise your choices.

      id imagine the worst of it is now over for the southern half of the country, the next few hours could be very interesting up in the northwest as the storm force winds push in, I was surprised just how squally and heavy the cold front was as it past down here.
