Brace yourself accordingly.
Met Éireann has issued two separate Status Yellow warnings, with strong winds set to dominate an especially breezy Halloween.
The first warning concerns the entirety of Munster, with Clare, Cork, Kerry, Limerick, Tipperary and Waterford set for a gusty morning and afternoon.
The warning, valid until 2pm on Sunday (31 October), will see west to northwest winds reaching mean speeds of up to 65 kilometres per hour, with gusts of up to 90 – 110 kilometres per hour and higher gusts found along coasts and exposed hills.
The second warning concerns Galway and Mayo, with the exact same conditions expected.
This warning, however, is valid from 12pm on Sunday until 10pm.
