Storm Eowyn is approaching Ireland, prompting urgent warnings for 18 areas. Experts advise residents to prepare for potentially dangerous conditions this weekend.
Galway: Experts are sounding the alarm about Storm Eowyn. They say it could hit Ireland hard this weekend. Wind gusts might reach up to 100 mph. That’s pretty intense!
The latest forecasts show the storm moving east and inland. If that happens, it could be a real nightmare. Another possibility is it skirting the northwest coast, which would still bring strong winds.
On social media, meteorologist MetJeffUK warned everyone to prepare. He mentioned that the wind gusts could be fierce, thanks to some weather charts.
Weather Alerts Ireland also chimed in. They said there’s a lot of uncertainty about the storm’s path. It’s expected to be dangerous, and where it goes will determine how bad it gets.
Some models suggest it could head out to sea, which would be better for the north and northwest. But if it moves east, most of Ireland could face the worst winds. That’s definitely the worst-case scenario!
For now, it’s a waiting game. Experts will keep us updated in the coming days. Met Eireann has already issued warnings for 18 areas as the storm approaches.
From early Monday, many parts of the country will be under a Status Yellow fog warning. This could lead to poor visibility in several counties.
Areas like Connacht, Munster, Cavan, Monaghan, Longford, Louth, Meath, Offaly, and Westmeath are included. Met Eireann warns that dense fog could make travel hazardous.
They say a Status Yellow Warning means the weather isn’t a major threat but can be dangerous locally. It’s wise to stay alert and avoid unnecessary risks.
Tonight, expect a mix of clear skies and scattered showers. Some mist and fog will likely form overnight, with temperatures dropping to around 0 to 3 degrees.
Tomorrow morning, the mist and fog should clear up. We can look forward to sunny spells and scattered showers throughout the day, with highs of 7 to 9 degrees.
