It might make a bit of rain between the showers and a bit of wind. They do let themselves up for big falls on these warnings.

We'll see tomorrow, I guess. My polytunnels are having a summer without plastic so I'm not concerned.

Similar situation here, with 50-60km/h gusts forecast for several days, yet again. Every fekkin week since November ; I'm getting really fed up with it ... :x

In view of that forecast (and thanks to this thread for the heads-up - as I was somewhat distracted from weather watching by my weekend away - I put the next phase of the drylining on hold, and cleared some of the up-a-laddery stuff off the To Do List instead.

Horrible in Enniscorthy since about 3pm but the wind has already died down - another false alarm?

Lots of wind and rain here in the NE. Though its not cold, it still feels like a late autumn stormy night. Stay safe.

It was a bit blowy on the North Circular Road. I was going to say it looks like a war zone with all the debris thrown around but that's its normal appearance:)
