Darragh and stormy night on Friday?

The Island could be in for a lashing by winds and heavy rain this weekend - with possible flooding, coastal overtopping and damage.

The Met Office's five day forecast shows a storm approaching from the Atlantic which is due to hit the Island on Friday night, bringing gale force winds, heavy rain and possible flooding and coastal overtopping around exposed coasts at high tide.

The bad weather's due to continue into Saturday morning, with winds of up to storm force bringing damage and severe disruption to land, sea and air travel.

So far the storm hasn't been given a name - but will be called Darragh if the UK, Ireland or Dutch authorities assign a name.
