Met Eireann issued a series of Red Weather Warnings for all of Ireland that came into effect at various times through Friday morning.

Storm Éowyn has the "potential to be very destructive," Met Éireann said while issuing its Status Red weather warnings. Check here for the Status Red, Status Yellow, and Status Orange weather warnings coming into effect for Ireland this week.
