STORM BRAM UPDATE 5:35PM🟠

The latest high resolution Harmonie model run and UKMO model show very severe winds across Donegal, Mayo, Galway Tuesday afternoon but other models are not in full agreement due to the complexity of this low pressure system.

If the UKMO model and Harmonie model is correct then Red warnings could be issued for the counties mentioned above. The Harmonie model is the main model Met Eireann use.

Further updates to follow this evening after other model runs come in.

STORM UPDATE

Still some divide on models this morning with this attached UK Met office model showing the strongest winds on Tuesday with wind gusts in excess of 130km acros western and northwestern counties on Tuesday. The most likely outcome at the moment once the updated warnings are issued this morning is for a Orange warning for winds issued for Donegal, Sligo, Leitrim, Mayo, Galway, Clare and Kerry. With these mentioned counties the main worry also is the risk of coastal flooding due to the storm coinciding with the high astronomical spring tides. Please stay away from coastal areas on Tuesday particularly.

At the moment looking at the overall risk based on a blend of a number of models is for winds gusting in general between 100km/hr to 130km/hr

I expect updated warnings to be issued over the coming hour ahead of Met Eireanns technical briefing with the local authorities at 11am this morning.

Further updates to follow.

⚠️⚡⛈️Good morning folks some very heavy showers and Thunderstorms across the west this morning with plenty of lightning ahead of tomorrows storm. These showers will move eastwards through the morning with the ongoing risk of Thunderstorms especially in western and northwestern counties.

Warnings are likely to be upgraded this morning for some counties ahead of Tuesday storm.

There was also a potential Tornado in Middleton, Cork overnight.

UPDATE ON TUESDAY'S STORM RISK

Models continue to show a fairly strong storm on Tuesday across the whole country especially across western and northwestern coastal counties where the current Yellow wind warning mostly likely will be upgraded to an orange one with storm Bram named tomorrow. Counties likely to fall under this warning would include Donegal, Sligo, Leitrim Mayo, Galway, Clare & Kerry. There is a possible chance Roscommon could be upgraded also depending on the track of the storm depression.

Any tracks further to the east with the storms center would bring even more areas at risk even by just 10 to 20 kilometres of a shift closer to Ireland. The same if it would shift to the west further out over the Atlantic it would keep them strong winds out to sea.

At this moment and time Orange winds warning do look likely and any upgraded warnings will be issued tomorrow morning pending no massive changes.

We are in a period of high astronomical tides, which will coincide with the strong, potentially onshore winds, so coastal flooding is likely. Take the Irish coast Gaurds advise and "Stay Back, Stay High, Stay Dry”.

People asking about Red warnings at this current time it not certain as mentioned above any small shifts of this storm depression closer to Ireland then I would say there would be a risk of warnings higher than an orange but again that will not really be known until tomorrow morning or afternoon.

Rainfall will be also a issue on Monday and Tuesday which will cause some flooding especially with the water logged ground and soils and the amount of rain the past week already.

I have attached 5 different models which show the difference in severity, the UKMO, ARPEGE and AROME the most strongest of the bunch this evening.

Further updates to follow on Monday

Good morning everyone, model's continues to show a strong storm on Tuesday next week with the mostly likely outcome been a low pressure system developing and passing just to the west of Ireland bringing the strongest winds across the southwest, west and northwest of Ireland. The latest model attached here is the UKMO model that shows a severe storm Tuesday.

The first chart is a probability chart issued by the UK Met office on the track of the storm with a 60% chance of it passing to the west and 20% chance of it tracking further east.

The interesting thing is the Ecmwf model this morning has back of the idea of a storm but the GFS model now shows a storm. You would expect this swapping and changing but I do expect by this time tomorrow we will have a good idea.

UPDATE ON STORM RISK FOR NEXT WEEK

It does look likely we are going to see a storm early next week at some point between Monday night, Tuesday or Wednesday. Tonight the ECMWF, ICON ARPEGE & UKMO models all have a storm hitting the country. The UKMO, ECMWF & ICON have the storm centered just to the west and northwest of Ireland on Tuesday with strong wind especially across the western and northwestern half of Ireland. The ARPEGE at the moment has a much stronger storm hitting the whole country late Tuesday in Wednesday.

The GFS doesn't have any storm at all and doesn't develop the low but this could change over the next few hours on models.

At the moment looking at the over all picture is a named storm (next one will be called Bram) with a Yellow and orange wind warning potentially for some areas.

I will update over the coming days as details and models become much more clear.

UPDATE ON A POTENTIAL STORM NEXT WEEK

The latest outlook from the European forecasting model this evening continues to show a potential strong wind storm next Monday into Tuesday. I think the most interesting model run was this morning from the UKMO showing a very powerful storm over Ireland which would give storm Eowyn a run for its money something we certainly don't want coming into this time of year.

I will continue to monitor this over the next few days as we don't have full cross model agreement yet.

I have attached the UKMO model run to this post which is the last image.
