Just in time for Christmas.
Two wind warnings for the country have been issued on Friday morning as Storm Barbara crosses the country.
The north and north-west will be particularly affected, with some travel disruption expected for those looking to make it home for Christmas.
Gusts of between 100km/h and 120km/h are expected and there’s a Status Orange wind warning in place for coastal regions and high ground of counties Donegal, Galway and Mayo.
A Status Yellow wind warning is in place for the rest of the country, with gusts of between 90km/h and 110km/h.
Both weather warnings will stay in place until 6pm.
If you’re travelling, the Road Safety Authority has advised that people check conditions in advance of setting out. A number of Irish Ferry services have been cancelled, while cyclists and pedestrians are being warned to take care.
There is one piece of very good news – Dublin Airport does not expect Storm Barbara to have any impact on flights as 83,000 passengers are set to travel through the airport on Friday.
