I've greatly enjoyed this thread, would anyone recommend an accessible book on meteorology for the uninitiated? I'd like to be more up to speed for the next storm thread haha
Storm Kings by Lee Sandlin is great account of the history of the study of both Tornadoes and Hurricanes, without going into scientific detail.
Here is a great satellite image of Ophelia over Galway Bay

No damage done locally to my knowledge apart from branches. Power flickered on and off during the strongest winds .
Thanks to everyone for their contribution I learnt a lot.
Pic taken near the eye center at 13.30 approx looking approx SW
NASSA Sat Pic close to that time I reckon.
Yes as eye was over us, the reading on my barometer was also 965, just 20 miles away from you, that was the lowest,, we did not get the trashing most of the country got, we did get trashed by Darwin in 2014, and a little by Desmond, but this time none of that, I am thinking that may be because anything that was going to be uprooted was gone, and the roof being redone due to Darwin, helped greatly, and of course of the scare at that time, we had readied better, scared of what was to come, since this had been reported to be the worst in 50 yrs0 -
