    And look out for the development of a potential squall line at the back of the front as it pushes south this is where wind potential really picks up. Should be sometime around 9pm.

    We shall see.

    Getting very very windy here in Cork now....

    Despite what the reports are on 4FM though,,it's still dry...

    If I was to believe yer Man on the radio,I'd have expected to look out the front door and see the car floating away...

    Not happening yet anyway. :D

    Can hardly stand outside with the winds at the moment, would advise anyone in SW Donegal to stay indoors as conditions are dangerous..

    Constant wind up here howling through the house again, should be out later to get some footage.

    No weather station yet.

    Fairly Windy-ish here, nothing that unusual given recent storms, but I could just have become so acclimatised to the constant stronger winds that it hardly registers now.

    Today has had to have been one of the wettest most miserable I can remember in a long time- constant wind and rain.

    We have much stronger sustained winds tonight than the last few nights here in Wicklow town. Gusts seem pretty strong too. Gusting 47 mph down the road in Ashford but I feel they may be a tad stronger here on the hill beside the sea.

    Very bad winds up on Windgates, Greystones this evening. Much stronger than monday. Double glazed glass doors only resealed a few weeks ago & the wind is howling through them. Sea having some serious activity too. Probably the worst I've seen in the 6 years I've been here.
    4 big dogs here & I'm having to go out with them everytime one wants to go for a pee as the fence & gate are wobbling.
    Wish I had a weather station!

    The wind is getting stronger here in Newtown Mt Kdy, Co Wicklow

    It has not let up once the last few hours

    In my opinion much stronger gusts than the Storm event a few days ago

    I concur with my Wicklow brethren. This seems like the worst winds we've had in this stormy period.

    Unfortunately the bloody anemometer on my WS2300 is broken and I haven't put the replacement up yet. Typical....

    Even up here I would have to admit that it's extremely windy. The howl outside is very loud and the gust are vicious.
