Hurricane ophelia

It's 60 years since a hurricane clipped the north west of Ireland and now we find ourselves in the path of another. It might possibly downgrade to a sub tropical storm by the time it arrives on Monday but it may not. Either way baton down the hatches we are all in for a rough ride! (So what's new around here)

When was the last time Ireland was sub tropical?

Judging by the latest Met Eireann forecast I wouldn`t be so sure about that.
