Storm Jocelyn - Tuesday 23/Wednesday 24 January 2024

Shur no one uses mph except the Tans or the Yanks

Just a breezy evening in Waterford, haven't even hit an 80km/h gust. Certainly not a storm down here. Surprised to see Oak Park get a gust over 100km/h.

97kmh at Casement.

104kmh was highest for Isha

Fair number of trees reported down Galway including phone poles

I watch too much uk TV especially their weather I prefer it than met eirrean it's more detailed

Nothing at all of note in N. Louth as yet. Fairly calm.

And Co Google

Ah right nice to know that there's people not far from me on this, fairly blustery to gusty now but not as bad as isha ,this storm is a notch down

BBC NI tends to be more accurate for Donegal.

We have big trees about 100m from the house, most of the noise is coming from there tonight, that and the dodgy window I couldn't get fixed today.

The type of house and wind direction can have a big effect on how people are experiencing the storm. Called to a friends A rated house earlier, its well protected by other houses and south facing, you wouldn't even know there was a storm once you step inside!

While my older, end of row, east facing house whistles and hums and creaks with every gust.

Thanks for the reply. Your comment it was 15kmh slower sparked the question regarding proximity and strength

A blowy evening in north Kerry, doesn't feel any different to Isha. Weather station broke so can't give any reading...the shame 😭

10pm

Mace head 57 knots(106 km/h)

Knock 56 knots

Malin head 56 knots

Belmullet 51 knots

Oak Park 51 knots

A fair few new outages on the power check website, some unlucky people no doubt just got theirs back before. Its a decent winter storm, not exceptional but still a storm by all measures.

I just think it's more detailed between the 10 day forcast and the deepdive I just love ,they may not mention Ireland but they still show what it's gonna be like for me

KLM flight to cork diverting to Shannon now. Aerlingus flight to cork going for second attempt

Highest gust tonight so far on my station is 98 kmh

I'm the other side of the city and it's vicious howling evening, nowhere near just another January evening.

I'm in South Wicklow, house is on the cusp of a hill and it's definitely sounds worse than Storm Isha here, must be the slight difference in wind direction as to the south west, we have found fewer higher hills and mountains for shelter compared with all other directions

Very mild out there though!

Did a quick run of Sandymount, Blackrock, Dun Laoghaire, and Dalkey around high tide, nothing out of the ordinary. I know the winds are pushing out to sea, but even when that happens you do get waves and spray with a 3.7m tide, but there really was nothing apart from the noise of the wind, a very normal lapping tide.

So, very calm along the southside coastal waters, once you come in a little bit there's a howl, and fallen bin rubbish flying everywhere!

For sustained winds Jocelyn is winning hands down imby.

Ya wind is fairly sustained with this one. New power cuts in Collooney and Ballymote with virtually the whole of both villages in darkness now.

South Roscommon, gusty.
