Probably going to remain a station record for me #ecowitt https://app.weathercloud.net/d4391787324 164km/h gusts.
The #windvane blew off, hence the stable direction for a few hours.

No damage as far as I can tell. Power and internet still working. Gusts peaked at 164km/h. Literally everything caked in salt #Dohilla #ValentiaIsland #Kerry #StormEowyn

Down on #valentiaisland for the next two weeks. Looking forward to the change in scenery given the turmoil at work lately.

Rural Barriers
Barbed wire along the edge of a field on Valentia Island is knotted to make sure the barrier holds.
I remember hearing a podcast about the use of barbed wire in the US, how, in the 19th century, it helped white farmers control herds and easily fence their territories.

Looking forward to #TheCableThatChangedTheWorld on #RTE tonight #TelegraphField #valentiaisland

From this location on Valentia Island the first transatlantic telegraph cable was laid. It connected Ireland to Newfoundland. Several attempts were needed to lay the cable, the first transmission was sent in 1858(!).

The "Eighth World Wonder" museum in Knightstown has lots of interesting information as well.
