Storm Hannah : Fri 26 - Sat 27 April 2019

Meteorite58 · 2019-04-24 13:10:24

Time to start a thread for the potentially stormy weather in the SW for Fri /Sat coming. Bit of a spread on the models yet which is to be expected at this stage but it is being well flagged for a number of days now. Warning levels will probably change upwards as we get closer to the event. EDIT: Updated Fri 16.11 STATUS…

Oh great! Clare!

I was waiting for you to surface. You are always giving out about Clare missing out, so your day has come!

Unlikely for it to snow with this event though. Just saying

Makes a change for Clare to get a mention. There are often warnings for Kerry, Galway (even Galway Bay) and Clare doesn't get a mention. Sure we will all get some wind. Rain just starting here. NWClare

This warning system is a farce. I cant see how somewhere like killaloe in a red zone will be impacted more than say ballybunnion or the aran islands.

How can doolin be red and 6 miles away out in the sea the aran islands not?

They need to be more specific, west clare, north kerry, north clare etc.

FFS Use your common sense!!!!
I'm sure the people of Aran won't be out in their beer gardens supping pints cause Galway is only orange!! The warnings are only a guidance. They can't specify the conditions for every parish in Ireland.

They have a point in fairness, issuing warnings based on county borders is a bit daft. I don't think going more specific makes sense either, but they should just have red/orange/yellow regions on the map and forget about basing it on counties.

Not quite a live stream but through windguru you can access 'clahane waverider' weather station near liscannor, should record some high stuff throughout the night.

Things picking up a bit a Doolin pier, someone has parked their Micra facing the sea in one of the car parks, if it's still there in the morning it'll be in some state.

On current guidance, no, but still very windy. Of course the further west you go, the windier it will be. A lot windier in Ahilies than in Cork city etc

Typical, Cork getting screwed over at the last second. Even the weather is in on it

On a slightly more serious note, light rain has started and it's also gotten blustery here in Ballincollig over the last fifteen minutes. Barometer at 1001mb and dropping.

And so it begins...

Good luck trying to figure me out. I haven't managed that myself yet!

Why? These things happen in the moment and people interact with what they are hearing & seeing.

It's pretty clear that giving warnings by county is daft. Any sensible person on the southern parts of the west coast should be able to figure that it will be windy, regardless of these silly cards. Weather for Dummies.
