Storm Eowyn is bringing a tornado risk to Ireland, with red weather alerts in place. Stay safe and follow updates as the storm approaches.
Weather experts say a long-tracked tornado can’t be ruled out. But don’t panic; the risk is still low. A level 2 warning for tornadoes is in place for England.
The storm is expected to hit the west coast of Ireland by 5 am on Friday. Met Eireann has issued a red weather warning, which means dangerous conditions are on the way.
This storm is being called one of the worst in years. Experts are urging everyone to take precautions as the storm shows signs of cyclogenesis.
Most of Ireland is under a red weather warning, with orange warnings also issued. Galway is particularly at risk, with severe winds expected.
Tonight, we can expect heavy rain, sleet, and even snow. Winds will pick up, causing potential power outages and damage.
Tomorrow, gale-force winds will hit, especially along the coast. It’s going to feel much colder due to the wind chill. Stay safe out there!
