+Liam H King- What would you say to a Storm Brian, Father? FECK OFF BRIAN!!!
Not Amused Ara, to be fair, it's just a bit wet,and as Jesus would say "Isn't it great for the fish"..
I'm scared. Where I am every five minutes on the radio it says that power has gone in a part of my town. It's coming for me. Run.
im praying for you all in ireland !!!!!!
its hitting west england now
Ok
I remember it.... I will never forget
RIP Sean Hughes. x
Ophelia was a hurricane , now is a extratropical cyclone
It becomes extratropical once it moves over much cooler waters and further north. Water needs to be at least 80 F (27 C) to remain a hurricane.
ScorpioBornIn69 Yep , but currently Ophelia dissipated
Hi jerry
Different name same concept still hurricane category 2 force winds and dangerous doesn’t matter what it’s called same damage applies
@@ScorpioBornIn69 no an hurricane becomes extratropical as soon as it starts to develop frontal systems hurricanes especially strong ones can remain tropical over cold water for a surprisingly long time
Be safe my friends in Ireland...Miss my friends and the craic..lol
Thx much ablyged
Thank you I know I'm late
Am i the only one that can read the Irish accents in the comments?
Trump will be there to throw paper towels at everyone, you'll be fine
A Google User doesn't he have a golf course in Ireland?
Tell him to shove it up his arrogant arse
Puerto Rico still in shambles, no fucks are given
Better than thoughts and prayers... Just sayin'
f you
Blessings my friends! Stay safe💗
Thank You Bonnie! Stay Safe Too!
Life is like a hurricane

Why do people give hurricanes the most least intimidating names
It has to be the shittest hurricane ever I’m in Dublin now and it’s quite windy. That’s it.
Brock Landers It's not come that close yet, it'll be the worst at like three in the morning so you won't really notice it
Jeff Kaplan what? Also your name is hawt ;3
Brock Landers Dublin wasn't hit by the storm half as strongly compare to the west and in particular south west of the country.
Brock Landers Same. Only some strong winds and some rain and that’s it. It missed us by about ten miles. But most shops were closed and streets were mostly deserted.
It was never close to Dublin
i forgot what actual news shows look like
I'm surprised that it made it that far since it moved over much cooler waters which will weaken the storm as it does when the eye moves over land.
sucks for ireland but its nice of ophelia to give US a break although im sure someone in florida will find a way to pissoff hurricane phillippe
Stay safe stay in side and stay calm lads
We're missing it here in Essex
I hear they'll be taking in the roads for the night.
Hope you all will be well...
This hurricane was a bloody joke in my opinion, people have seriously exaggerated how ''dangerous'' it was.
To be honest, I've seen plenty worse in the days I used to live in Baldoyle.
we are hoping for Ireland . Our hearts with everyone. Anyone anywhere. From US.
DID YE GET THE CLOTHES OF THE LINE LADS?!?!?
RandomShiz TV My mam alwat freaks out about that XD
Mavrick Parrot typical Irish mammys😂
RandomShiz TV XD YEP
I think I left my underwear hanging
Brian Mul Yes my mom brought the line in with the clothes
"This lunch time"
If I'm not having lunch, is it still lunch time?
3 people lost their lives in this disaster and 7 hours since Ophelia hit I'm among the 400,000 homes still without power :(
Day off work, not bad!
Calm down Ophelia. stay safe everyone!
guys the hurricane is in galway and im right beside it and i still have electricity!! :D
Now just 2 years later we have an even bigger storm on it's way witch is expected to break all records. Our climate is most definitely changing and rapidly
Owen o neill what no? It’s a yellow warning and is barely an orange warning on some of the western coast
I seen a sheep flying potatoes are hitting my window Lord Christ send help here to Galway
Jacob Kopras stop
You do realise people have died
Aibhin Farrell ahhhhh people die every day sorry for the families get used to it death is natural
Yeah Jacob, death is natural until it happens to one of your family members.
agormanvideos yea it's still natural then it's gonna happen to everyone's family members sometime and to you too so I advise you go and live life while you're still Here go help clean all them spuds up will ya
It hit Cork hard!
Ikr,119 MPH WIND GUSTS,Cork got destroyed
120,000 without power new update.
ciaranbrk yep watchin the news XD
Mavrick Parrot yep have to keep updated a roof of a sports hall was blown into people’s back garden in Douglas.
360,000 now
Think its who discovers it, it gets named after them, in america it goes in alphetical order
I'm stuck here, they took the roads in tonight and they're storing them in a warehouse on the other side of the island
oh I sooo hope my Nanny Ryan house stays undamaged ( well it's Annie now) it's bin in the family for over 300 years, sniff
please all of you stay save 😔
I can see people to your left on the footpath .. oh hold on I'll just look over my right shoulder like an idiot.
It was already 6pm and barely anything happened it only was on for 5 mins for me at 2mph
I just sang the song oh Ophelia you've be on my mind
What a rare thing indeed.
Stay safe everyone
After the hurricane in island it hit me
Prayers up
I thought that hurricanes only form in tropical areas
They do only form over water ocean water when it's 80 F or higher and need to move over that warm water which is the fuel for hurricanes. Once they get over land or chillier waters, they weaken. I'm really surprised to see it go that far over much cooler water and still have hurricane force winds, however it was moving very fast which didn't allow it to weaken much once it got to Ireland.
Now everyone can experience a cold windy night at stoke
The help was inmediately and Puerto Rico still waiting for drinking Water. How can this be A+ in PR?
My chairs outside are upside down
we pray for ireland .stay strong
Ok what is the differnce between this and everyday ireland????
Thanks, the TV news here in Argentina never say anything about Ireland.
Oh wow, had no idea there was a hurricane out there. Hope everyone makes it okay! I just went through a hurricane in Florida several weeks ago. Was horrible! Best wishes from the US!
