Bloody weather station only reads gusts in Metres/second, so have to get the calculator out. Just recorded a 30.1 M/S gust which roughly equates to 110 kph gust. About 10/20 higher than what Met Eireann said we've had so far. I was watching the living room window bulge as it happened. Almost like a squall, but no rain falling. Another couple of hours of this ahead of us. Usually we don't lose the sparky in storms but there has been a flicker or 2 of the lights.

I don't live far from the airport, and I can tell you the gusts are quite forceful and wild. Here's hoping they get on the ground soon.

West and NW Ireland under red warning from this evening with rest of the island under amber according to Met Éireann. It’s incredibly gusty already. It’s going to be a long day!

Nationwide amber alert for Ireland and a red marine warning for the NW. Probably upgrades to come. This looks lethal.

Yep, have repaired my roof twice in the last 3 years because of wind! And no. not from my curry consumption! I love freak weather and watching the build up to it, but I'd prefer watching it on the coastline than watching it strip my roof, and I live in east Ireland, where we usually don't get the brunt of it all!

Yes, they always get the brunt of the 'uninterrupted' winds. Some of the speeds shown on that UKV are certainly worthy of considering red. That said, it's still only a prediction. Warnings will start to appear on Met Eireann by tomorrow evening I'd say if confidence grows!

Possibly red for a few areas. It's going to be a couple of days of strong winds afterwards too.

For me, as much as I love cold and snow, the real watching brief is for this bloody storm on Sunday... That could lead to a red warning if it is any way close to how it's being modelled. Lot's of rain too, something I think we can all agree is not needed...
