    Nothing significant in Tipp this morning. Forecast looks like wind to pick up around 11 so off out on the bike to beat that.

    The wind has started literally screaming now. High-pitched and eerie. Or maybe the banshee has come to visit...Then a few thudding words from it. Smashing rain against the door panel. Today will be.... interesting.... indeed it will.

    then it quietens a while.. storm rhythm of a living force.

    Last 2 hours here in West Mayo have seen some very violent winds, rain and lightning. I'll be very surprised if there are no trees down in the locality.

    I'd say it's borderline red level warning from galway up to Donegal for the next few hours, some decent convection on the way also.

    Thanks for that assurance.. certainly applies out here.

    Loud nasty hailstorm out here now. Rattling on the roof, gale borne.

    What’s the latest warning situation? In see an orange wind one on RTE for the south and west today (10:00 to 22:00) but it says it was issued yesterday and I don’t know if they update the website much on the weekends. And I don’t see any reference to them at all on met.ie.
    Manly interested in Galway/Mayo area. Thanks.

    Doesn't matter when it was issued. Read it again for the applicable times

    I’m not asking about when it was issued. What I was asking was if it was still in effect as, if it had changed, RTE could have left it on their site. Do RTE keep this up to date?

    There was no rain with it. Felt a bit surreal and other worldly walking in it

    My weather station has gone blank, not sure if it got damaged but not a day to go up and inspect.

    Had some impressive thunder and lightning around 7am, didn't last long but made some racket. Wind has gone from dead calm one minute to ferocious gusts the next. Outside Newport, Mayo.

    You'd be fine I reckon tbh. It's bad in the squals but otherwise yesterday was worse for driving.

    Not too bad in between the showers near Limerick City. But the winds do Really pick up in showers and we're probably in some severe or maybe violent gusts today. Went to a local dance last night and driving home noticed quite a few twigs and small logs on the road.

    I am just back from a walk, along the shore, that I have done literally thousands of times. This is the strongest wind I have ever experienced & the local farmer agrees. At times we were struggling to stay on our feet.
