- description: Based on the projected path of Ophelia, wind gusts of 130-145 km/h (80-90 mph) may cause power cuts and significant travel disruptions throughout southern Ireland. Wind gusts of 96-129 km/h (60-80 mph) are expected to sweep across a large portion of Ireland, Northern Ireland, southern Scotland and western Wales. "There is likely to be local wind gusts over 80 mph (129 km/h) across the high terrain of western Scotland and coastal regions of the Irish Sea and gusts to 100 mph (161 km/h) can’t be ruled out," AccuWeather Meteorologist Tyler Roys said. Cork and Waterford are communities in southern Ireland that are expected to experience some of the strongest wind. Travel by road, rail and air will be impacted along with the potential for disruption or closure of ferry services. Dangerous crosswinds threaten to overturn high-sided vehicles. The strongest wind will impact southern Ireland on Monday morning and early afternoon. The peak of the wind will spread across the rest of Ireland throughout Monday. "Ophelia could bring one of the most destructive wind events in years to Ireland," AccuWeather Hurricane Expert Dan Kottlowski said. Kottlowski warns that Ophelia may be worse than a more typical windstorm that blows in from the Atlantic. "Winds within a storm that was once a hurricane and lost its tropical characteristics are often more concentrated and can create sting jets," he said. Sting jets are a small areas of stronger winds that can cause severe damage. Also, typical windstorms bring the strongest wind to the western and northern coasts. Ophelia will bring the strongest wind to southern coastlines. As a result, damage in these areas could be worse than with a typical windstorm. https://www.accuweather.com/en/weather-news/ophelia-to-slam-ireland-and-uk-with-destructive-winds-dangerous-seas-early-this-week/70003015 Join Us For A Livestream of Ophelia from the town of Cork! https://youtu.be/_UuI1b4h3ds http://www.nhc.noaa.gov/graphics_at2.shtml?cone#contents https://www.windy.com/?48.327,-13.755,5 Geomagnetic activity on Earth could increase the storms intensity: http://www.swpc.noaa.gov/products/planetary-k-index Please Visit Our Facebook Resources: Solar Shutdown: https://www.facebook.com/SolarShutdown/ Comet C/2017 K2 - Panstarrs: https://www.facebook.com/OppenheimerRanchProject/ Plasma Geology: https://www.facebook.com/Plasma-Geology-321021831434846/ Oppenheimer Ranch Project: An experiment in high alpine sustainability. https://www.facebook.com/oppenheimerranch/ Please SUBSCRIBE to our channel if you enjoyed the content.
