Despite Met Éireann’s advice, a famous face walked around Dublin today

It wasn't a day for it.

Hurricane Ophelia caused a lot of damage to Ireland today, and while country was advised to stay safe indoors, a very famous face was walking around the streets of Dublin. Yep, Bill Clinton was spotted making his way through the city, with one fan even getting a selfie with him on O'Connell Street.

Is there any greater story from #Ophelia than POTUS Bill Clinton wandering around a deserted Dublin City Centre on his lonesome?

Bill Clinton (contrary to @MetEireann advice) is out on the streets of Dublin - he just passed us in the window of a Spar on Merrion Row

The former president is being presented with an honorary doctorate in a ceremony in DCU tomorrow morning. Meanwhile, there may be some disruption getting to college or work tomorrow, as many public transport services will still be cancelled in the morning. Be safe out there.
