Dublin: Ireland is gearing up for some serious weather as Storm Eowyn rolls in with winds hitting 130mph. It’s not just another storm; this one’s historic.
Weather experts are sounding the alarm, saying we could see gusts like we’ve never experienced before. Alan O’Reilly from Carlow Weather warns that anyone thinking this is just a typical storm is in for a shock.
He’s been looking at the latest models, and they’re showing some wild predictions. The west coast is expected to bear the brunt of it, with gusts reaching up to 120mph. That’s no joke!
Barra Best from the BBC also chimed in, saying this could be the worst storm since 1961. Back then, Storm Debbie took 18 lives, and it’s a stark reminder of what can happen.
Met Eireann has issued a Red Weather Warning for counties like Clare, Limerick, and Cork, while others are under an Orange Warning. They’re not messing around with this one.
They’ve warned of severe winds, dangerous travel conditions, and even potential power outages. It’s going to be a rough ride, so everyone needs to stay safe and be prepared.
