Here in the west of Ireland i never heard wind like it last night and there seems to be a lot of trees down but so far it looks like everyone paid heed and stayed home.
In the eastern part of the North and it was the same here, I've never seen wind like that in my life, it was already mental at 5am hours before the warning for us began, every business in the area was closed even the big ones that never close. Hopefully we don't see a storm like that again anytime soon
Blowing a hooly on the south coast, but no more than usual in the winter. The gulf stream jet stream combination at british latitued goes all over the place sometimes. I still remember 1962 and 3.
As a denizen from the Southern United States, I can only caution those in the UK/Ireland. We have had, in the past few years, some "once in a Century", and several "once in a lifetime" storms. The one we are finishing up applies to both categories, without any question.

You're being warned , so you may prepare. Gaslighting would be you standing where your house was, with your stair newel pole in your side , and husband saying it's a brisk day.
The weather monitors got a lot of stick because of their under estimation in 1987, so I suppose it is better to over state just for safety. In some places it was not overstated.

Are using the same definition of ‘once in a generation’ that the SNP applies to independence referendums?
Yeah that's exactly the case. Jesus wept 😅
They still have a way to go to beat the record of 173 miles an hour recorded on Cairngorm.
Not Lancashire. Lanarkshire. Not the same. Not even in the same country.
Fact 👌
Yes I noted that too but Aiden got it right.
The current frigid weather in florida is only second to a similar event 139 years ago. They called that a generational storm also.
It's happened before though, it's not "just" climate change and complete weather records of the World has only been kept since 1880!?!
So maybe talk about that on something discussing the weather in Florida!
But, as the climate keeps changing, Florida is likely to see even greater storms, like the Hurricane "double whammy" it endured last summer.
Cork wasn't too bad. Some bins fell over.

It was bad in Mayo. Starting snowing today after the storm too 😂
Prob no worse than a few weeks ago, as usual.
This storm was not that bad we are being gaslighted
Yeah, the lefty liberal media elite made off with my toolshed, and cut the power to 1 million people in Ireland......tool.
Look at you, pretending you know what that word means.

@@blackwidor Or being told you have just been through a once in a century storm when all it did was blow your bin over.

Time for a real pub crawl?
