Here's my 1c worth.....wind has definitely picked up here in Dublin City Centre but looks like its nothing compared to what's going on in the Vest!!

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.

This is just down the road from you in Clonee.

could be wrong but wind seems to be shifting more westerly here now as the back garden is now getting it. The water is getting blown out of the bird bath and its blowing out in a westerly direction. Has been North westerly most of the day.

Wind is less strong here. Still blustery here in thurles.

Has become very dark and the rain is pouring down.

Wind is fairly heavy here in Maynooth, would knock you off balance if you weren't careful. No real rain to speak of just yet

Ger fleming says when winds turn more westerly later its gonna create problems for eastern regions and dublin because the wind will funnel down the liffey
