🌬 The Weather Thread part 2 (Part 1)

Fresh out.

Grand drying if it stops raining

[Kyle]

When is the storm due to kickoff?

[Tassotti]

A country of fannies, I see nearly all the parkruns are cancelled over a bit of wind

[Kyle]

A local FF councillor has put a skip on the street for residents to dump stuff… I’ve filled it myself, up and down the road a hundred times since 7. A mild breeze is all

Drove down through the storm. The car got a couple of hooshes from gusts around Carlow and a few oul wans were bent double walking into the wind at the Arboretum but otherwise an unremarkable enough orange warning. Nice evening here in Dunmore.

Unless you went from Dublin to Dunmore via Galway & Cork you didn’t drive through an orange warning area.

Ok i fucked up. Waterford was orange too

Lads here would rather drown

[Julio_Geordio]

Were they swimming?

[BruidheanChaorthainn]

When god made idiots he made a lot of them.

Brought the kids and some of their friends to Courtown earlier to look at the waves and get an ice cream. Lovely big high ones drowning the Pier. Grand and safe in the car looking at it. Out of nowhere then appears a lad in a wetsuit and surfboard who jumps in off the pier and spends the next 10-15 mins trying to catch a good one. He got one which they were mesmerised with, managed a few 180 turns on it which looked class. And he had a few other good attempts too. All I could think of is what class of a lunatic yer man was

[Raylan]

Is he/they not fully clothed? I’d have some sympathy if they were swept in

[Julio_Geordio]

You would hope it was an accident they were in there anyway

[Julio_Geordio]

A child apparently. Fucking hell. Non life threatening injuries. Lucky lucky girl.

Swept off the pier. You’d wonder what the fuck she was doing on the pier in the first place during a storm…

Counted 5 separate groups of 2s and 3s with kids doing the same yesterday in Courtown. Nowhere near as exposed as Dun Laoghaire but equally as crazy. Lads looking for the perfect photo and 2 small kids standing beside them barely able to hold their own footing with the wind

[blackjack]

Jesus…
