MET Eireann has issued a weather warning for Donegal this weekend.
Forecasters say winds could reach speeds of up to or more than 100km/hr.
That’s strong enough to cause damage.
The warning comes after a miserable Saturday morning in which torrential rain once again hit the county.
A Met Eireann spokesman told Donegal Daily this evening: “Sunday will be a very windy, blustery day with strong to gale force southwest to west winds gusting 90 to 100 km/hr.
“These will be strongest in the North West and could be higher than 100km/hr.
“Showers will become widespread too, many heavy and some possibly thundery.”
Winds will reduce into Sunday night.
At the moment a storm threatening to hit southern parts of Ireland and Britain on Monday aren’t expected to reach Donegal.
However the forecast for the next few days is for more wet weather.
MET EIREANN Wind Warning for Ireland issued at 6pm Saturday
Strong to gale force southwest to westerly winds will gust 80 to 90 km/h., at times during Sunday. Winds may occasionally gust up to 100 km/h., along parts of the West and Northwest coasts.
