Brace for Ernesto! Met Eireann issues Status Yellow weather warning as tropical Storm Ernesto to hit Ireland tonight




What is with Ireland nowadays? If it’s not snow then it’s a heatwave, if it’s not a heatwave then it’s a storm!

So we’re in for yet another storm, well at least its tail end.

Met Eireann have issued a Status Yellow weather warning as tropical Storm Ernesto is expected to hit Ireland from this evening.

High intense rainfall is expected for a short period of time over many areas, according to the national weather forecaster Met Éireann.

Up to 20mm of rain is expected to fall but it could be heavier in what’s described as localised rainfall.

The storm will bring very warm, muggy, heavy humid conditions and temperatures are due to reach highs of 26C in parts of Munster and Leinster at the weekend.
