Storm Doris has wreaked havoc on the whole country in just one night. And unfortunately, all we could do was sit and watch it happen.
Live updates are thankfully being tweeted by AA Roadwatch, An Garda Síochána and Irish Rail – including this one about a fallen tree at Strawberry Beds near Angler’s Rest.
Dublin: Roadway blocked by fallen tree at Strawberry beds near Angler’s Rest. Use alternative route if possible.

And finally, Dublin Fire Brigade is asking us all not to approach fallen cables, as they could still be live.
With #StormDoris peaking now, don’t approach any fallen cables, they could be live. We always contact @ESBNetworks. Call 112/999 #DorisDay pic.twitter.com/VDCv9HXLsw
