This morning.
Clontarf, County Dublin (top) and Westmoreland Street, Dublin 2 (above).
ESB Networks is reporting large faults in Kilkenny, Mayo, Wexford, Kildare, Donegal, Cork, Kerry, Limerick and Galway.
Paul Hand of ESB Networks said 30,000 homes and business were without power, but he anticipated this figure increasing as the storm moves north.
The main faults are reported in Cork and Kerry, with localised pockets up the western seaboard.

Getting gusty, in fairness.

Southbound trains in North Dublin delayed… but then again, they’ve been at least 10 minutes late every day this week so not sure we were affected really.
leaves
