FROM NOEL FERRY, TAKEN AT BALLYMACOOL, LETTERKENNY - DONEGALDAILY.COMDONEGAL is being lashed with a storm this Saturday night – with winds of up to 110kmh.

Forecasters say a deluge of rain is accompanying the storm which will ease on Sunday before picking up again on Monday and Tuesday.

On Monday, says forecaster Peter O’Donnell from The Meteo Times which specialises in Irish forecasts, winds may gust up to 130 kmh.

And Met Eireann has issued a gale warning for tonight and the next three days.

There is the potential for storm damage and spot flooding as the storm brings up to 40mm of rain over the next 24 hours.

Mr O’Donnell says high tides brought by the current full moon have the potential to be even higher, causing problems on the coast.

“So be prepared,” he said.
