Storm Eowyn will slam Ireland later this week, with a Status Red weather warning issued for the entire country. Track it's exact path and check how wet and windy it will get in your area.

Weather expert Mark Bowe has highlighted the "extremely rare" nature of a nationwide Status Red alert from Met Eireann. The National Emergency Co-ordination Group is urging everyone to hunker down at home, schools to shut their doors, and workers to avoid commuting until the storm blows over, likely by Friday evening.

Storm Eowyn is set to batter the country when it arrives from tomorrow with cancellations expected for train, air and ferry journeys as wind speeds reach 90mph
