    Still quite calm in Dublin. Quite blustery, and the cloud cover is increasing. Should be an interesting one this evening :)

    The wind is roaring in the chimney and there's feck all leaves left on the trees.

    Consistant wind with the rain not far behind.

    It's actually quite blustery here now - i'd say it's still moving our way. Still quite bright here though.

    Not much to report here in Dublin 15. It got a bit windy earlier but is nice and bright now with not much of a blizzard to speak of. :)

    HIRLAM has worst of the winds hitting the north coast from mid afternoon until early evening so will be interesting to see what Malin reports later on.

    I would say the wind is as strong now as it was on Sunday here. And it seems to be getting stronger.

    Alot of the posts are seeming to trend towards this really picking up a bit now and i can certainly add to that and agree with what an other poster said where his gusts two hours ago are his sustained now.

    Nothing spectacular yet but getting fairly breezy down in the sunny south east.

    Frequently gusting to 50mph here in Tuam cretinhop over the last few mins. Hopefully this is the start of something bigger than what it is at the moment.
