Any stories from the current storm conditions? On and off electricity around the North Cork area and a large number of trees reported to be hazardous to driving conditions.

Just hearing that power is on/off and phone lines are down, mobile networks weren't working but back again.

UCC have told students not to leave buildings too.

Sounds like you had more fun than me-spent 1 hour 20 going all of 500m off the motorway and had to take the longest back road home. Every other road was blocked. And to top it all off-no electricity until this morning xD
