It's been forecast as a possible since Friday/Saturday and now looks distinctly probable.

The Ardfern webcam doesn't appear to be functioning so I'll just have to take your word for it.

Odd . . . it was blowing a hoolie and has suddenly stopped. Eye of the storm? It was meant to pass well to the NW of here.

A friend down the pub just told me the weather is saving its best for Christmas, with 100mph winds forecast for Christmas day. I can't see any sign of that on Magic Seaweed at the moment though.
