Give us a flavour of how you filled out the claim form?

A snip of the telephone conversation with the claims dept should be good!!!

Took out an old fridge last week and left it outside and it fell over on the front quarter panel from the wind. Left a mark of about a foot on the car. Ah not to bothered about it tbh. Put 2k into the car in summer to get it through the nct

Wet and windy out there now ahrite, be safe travelling folks if heading out. Must get the cows out of the shed and into the parlour now, they'll want to go even less than I will I'd say

Jump into the tank and batten down your hatch, you'll be fine.

Hammering like fcuk here since just after 5. We had a cow in for AI after milking, put it this way she'll either hold in the morning or not. We held another cow with her when I opened the gate they literally sprinted back to the shed.

Fair wind blowing here in North East Galway, rain too. Was over on the weather forum, came across this global wind map. You can rotate the globe and zoom in where you want. Class.

Also this ESB Networks map shows faults & power cuts, might be interesting to see the faults increasing later.

Fingers crossed there's no damage or injuries. Looks like it will be a wild night.

Clever, a diversionary tactic, maybe the storm will fall for it

Dude on the news says that he's never seen 100km winds in waterford in the last 10 years. We've had several nights with 100km in the last 2 week's. They don't know how good they have it!

It didnt look too bad where he was standing either , you would think he would be lying into the wind or holding onto a lamppost if the wind was that strong !

It's the calm before the storm here. Strong wind just settled in the last few mins.

Wexford getting battered, not much rain to be honest but plenty of severe gusts.

Lights are dipping too!

I'm going sleeping in the bath tub with the mattress on top. First though I'll have to pull the plug and empty it of the electricity we've saved up for a power cut.

RedFormanFITA

Calmed down here too in North East Donegal, has the worst passed by or is it the calm before the storm? Was watching The Day After Tomorrow last night and now that film will be on my mind all night.:eek:

Starting to blow a bit here. If things are right in the morning will go down the beach with the camera, hopefully the tide will be out, waves are bigger then.

Sharpshooter82

Very windy at the min, some noise from the trees as the wind blows through them. The storm doesn't seem to be fully going yet either according to the earth wind maps
