Storm Gabri Ireland Warning Dates as Pest From The West Timeline Forecast

Galway: Storm Gabri is on its way, and it’s no joke. Weather experts are saying it’ll hit parts of Europe soon. The storm formed over the Mediterranean and is expected to arrive on Friday evening, January 17, and stick around into Saturday.

The Met Office has shared some weather models showing a low-pressure system moving in around 6 PM CET on Friday. Expect heavy rain and strong winds. In fact, parts of North Africa and Sicily are already seeing heavy rains, with over 100mm falling by Friday morning.

The Met Office warns that Storm Gabri will bring very wet and windy weather to the central Mediterranean. Meanwhile, Alan O’Reilly from Carlow Weather mentioned that cold weather from America could stir up the jet stream, leading to more storms heading our way.

If you’re planning to be in the eastern U.S. next week, brace yourself for some serious cold. That chill could fire up the jet stream and create some nasty storms in the Atlantic. It’s still uncertain, but it’s worth keeping an eye on.

James Peacock from MetSwift said this storm is definitely one to watch. The forecast models have shifted focus from Scandinavian high scenarios to Atlantic lows visiting the UK and Ireland. He noted that some nasty windstorms could develop late next week.

This weekend, we’ll see a big contrast in weather between North America and Europe. While Europe enjoys temperatures around 10 degrees or higher, North America will be facing an arctic blast, with temperatures dropping to -30 in some areas.

Ventusky, a meteorological data visualization company, pointed out that the jet stream is causing this weather contrast. Eastern Europe will see warm air, while North America deals with the cold. It’s a wild weather weekend ahead!
