Storm Eowyn is on its way to Ireland, bringing strong winds and wet weather. Experts are keeping a close eye on its development this week.
Galway: So, there’s a big storm brewing called Storm Eowyn. It’s got experts buzzing because it’s expected to hit Ireland soon. They’re saying it could arrive by Friday.
This storm is fueled by a powerful jet stream. It’s coming from the east coast of the US and heading straight for us. The Met Office warns it might bring the strongest winds we’ve seen this winter.
They mentioned that we should prepare for some wet and windy weather. It sounds like it could get pretty messy, so it’s best to stay updated on the forecast.
Met4cast described the situation as “grim.” They’re talking about a cluster of cyclones that could really shake things up. It’s not just a little rain; we might see some serious winds.
Experts are keeping a close watch on this storm. They’re saying it’s likely to form off the coast of Ireland. Three major weather models are showing a deep area of low pressure developing.
Cathal from Ireland’s Weather Channel is on it. He’s been checking the models and says we need to keep an eye on how this storm tracks and its intensity. It could change in the next few days.
He also mentioned that while we can’t predict the exact impact yet, it’s definitely something to watch closely. The winds could be really strong, especially in the northwest of Ireland.
Chilterns Weather Alerts chimed in too, saying we’re in the “calm before the storm.” They’re forecasting winds over 100 km/h for Friday and the weekend. Yikes!
As for the storm’s path, there are two main scenarios. One is that it pushes northwest, bringing strong winds there. The other is it moves east, affecting more areas in Ireland.
Met Eireann has also shared their latest forecast. Monday starts with some fog, but it should clear up to a sunny day. Just a bit of rain here and there.
Tonight, expect a mix of clear skies and scattered showers. Some fog might roll in overnight, with temperatures dropping to around 0 to 3 degrees. A bit chilly!
Tomorrow looks similar, with fog clearing up and some sunshine peeking through. Temperatures will be around 7 to 9 degrees. Not too bad!
