Lads, the wind!
It’s fair to say the weather has taken a turn for the worst.
Yes, last week we were literally sweating buckets, sleeping in the nip and drinking cans on the canal daily, now we’re in need of goggles just for our walk to work.
Storm Hector is on his way and we think he needs to jog on as the winds are taking the legs out from under us.
Met Éireann has issued a Status Orange Gale Warning for Irish coastal regions today as Hector (the fecker) brings a sharp end to the country’s almost month-long heatwave.
Ladies, this is our eighth storm this year and we’re totally over it… and so is Twitter.
Here’s some of the best wind commentary on social media.
Lads what the fuck happened to summer? Weird being kept awake by the noise of the wind all night instead of the heat! pic.twitter.com/kbIVvPxbxb

I hope all the goths that wanted the nice warm calm weather to end are happy now.
All the flowers I planted have been shredded by the wind and my window box got knocked off the sill

My neighbour has one of those things in the garden that chimes when the wind blows and honestly I have had enough of this thing ringing like Santy bells all night
