    Including Carlow in Orange warning but no Kilkenny, it even looks wrong on the map.

    Yes, the very same anomoly as not including Roscommon while Galway and Longford/Westmesth are included.

    Sometimes you get the impression these county lists for warnings are put together by someone without access to a map!!

    That ARPEGE 18Z puts me right in some of the strongest gusts around 8pm. It will be all over very quickly though.

    I wonder if the strong winds coming behind Eleanor from that current large storm depression during Wednesday will be strong enough to be named Fionn.

    Wind at Dublin will be from 220°, gusting 55 knots, from 1800-2000 tomorrow. This is the dreaded direction that leads to multiple diversions, especially if the runway is wet, which it may be. Expect delays and have a listen to LiveATC.

    Thursday looks more and more like it'll be another one too, so that would be fairly crazy.

    While that is quite high for Dublin, it is not likely to cause any damage. It looks like a blustery evening for the central parts of Ireland but nothing out of the ordinary. Unless this wave feature does a weather bomb, it’s difficult to see where gusts to 130kmph are going to come from.
