As #stormdarragh blows here are some memories of its birthday buddy #stormbarra from #thisday2021

Driving towards the edge of #StormBarra … it’s like approaching an upside-down coastline.

Watching the progression of #StormBarra up the Atlantic coast <a href="http://burrishoole.marine.ie/FeeaghLake.aspx" class="hover:underline text-blue-600 dark:text-sky-400 no-card-link" target="_blank" rel="noopener" data-link="bsky">http://burrishoole.marine.ie/FeeaghLake.aspx

Wind speed is just starting to pick up here in mayo now @MarineInst #BurrishooleLTER

The calm before #StormBarra in #Swinford #Mayo

Current position of #StormBarra

Holy mother of god, never seen a bomb like this 🥶 40hpa drop in 8 hours. Going to be serious damage done. PLEASE be careful folks #StormBarra #Swinford #Mayo

Here we go #StormBarra

I woke up to the sound of the wind. It’s fascinating and scary at the same time… #StormBarra

Coastal #Dublin looks to be in trouble with 3.8m waves forecast at the same time as what was already a very high tide. #StormBarra

#StormBarra means the next couple of days will have a #Covid19Ireland swab undercount as some test centres closed
4215 today is 96% last Weds
Average of 4440 swabs in last 3 days is 100.5% last week
Positivity down to 12.8% (lower proportion of community testing?)
/3

#StormBarra probably means a couple of days coming where #Covid19Ireland cases will be a bigger undercount but today
71 deaths to 5788
4152 cases is 119% last Weds
33052 cases this week is 105% previous week

#StormBarra arrived and turned the world white in just a couple of hours in the Moorfoot Hills south of Edinburgh. Love a #snowday 😍 #uksnow #stormhour #loveukweather

Sadly, also found three dead adult Puffins along the Bay of Tafts, #Westray this afternoon - likely victims of recent #StormArwen and #StormBarra. #WestrayBirding
