And the craziness is still going on this morning!
Storm Abigail hit Ireland over the last 24 hours and it’s been causing havoc for people all over the country.
Met Éireann issued a Status Orange weather warning earlier this week for winds of up to 120kph in Donegal, Galway, Leitrim, Mayo and Sligo, with a number of other counties on a Status Yellow warning.
Twitter came alight across the UK and Ireland as the weather got worse and here’s just a glimpse at what was going on out there.
My daughter Abigail is rather impressed they’ve named a hurricane after her #StormAbigail

If you have any washing on the line, might be an idea to take it in. Lest it end up in Outer Mongolia with this wind. #StormAbigail
