‘Storm Herminia may bring NEW power outages’ – Warning over strong winds, heavy downpours and yellow alerts issued

WEATHER chiefs warned that Storm Herminia is approaching from a different direction than what we had from Storm Eowyn – bringing more chaos to other parts.

Historic Storm Eowyn brought gale force winds of 180kph and caused widespread power outages and business closures.

Alan O’Reilly from Carlow Weather said: “Pretty clear from Powercheck map that most of the Southeast excluding Wexford escaped the worst of Storm Eowyn but Storm Herminia will be strong enough in those areas today.”

The weather expert said temperatures will range from -3C to 8C.

He said: “Unfortunately, Storm Herminia is bringing some rough weather to the south coast, already gusting to 98 kilometres an hour at Roches Point and 94 kilometres an hour at Sherkin Island.”

There will be widespread rain, wettest in the southwest.

Alan continued: “Very heavy rain also moving up across the country, feeling bitterly cold.

“There is frost in the north of the country, but even the South, the wind chill makes feel a lot colder than what the temperature may seem to be.”

The Carlow man warned today will be a “rough day” with plenty of rainfall.

He said: “If we look at the wind forecast here, you can see strong gusts moving up across the country, especially into the south and the east.

“There could be some issues at Dublin Airport. It is a south east wind direction, which is a different wind direction than what we had from Storm Eowyn.

“So it is going to be a little bit different, and it may well bring some new power outages unfortunately. So stay safe and hope the lights stay on if you have them.”

Some 402,000 homes, farms and businesses were still without electricity yesterday evening.

ESB crews worked tirelessly to restore power to 366,000 premises.

Met Eireann forecaster Linda Hughes confirmed there’s “more unsettled weather on the way” as several yellow weather warnings are in place.

She said: “Sunday is going to be a wet and at times, very windy day.

“Highest amounts of rain in the south and south east, with some spot flooding possible.

“So yellow rain warning for there, starting at 5am continuing until 5pm.

“A yellow wind warning then for counties, Carlow, Dublin, Kilkenny, Wexford, Wicklow, Munster and Galway, from 6am until 6pm -starting a bit later at 11am then for the North West for Louth and Meath.

“So further, very strong gusts may cause some further damage.”

A large low pressure system will bring some “very strong winds and heavy rain” today and tomorrow.

Our weather is “staying unsettled” on Monday, with further “strong winds and some heavy rain”.

The low pressure system will begin to move.

The meteorologist said: “It is going to start moving away to the northeast on Tuesday, so an improving picture during Tuesday into Tuesday night.

“But we may see another low come near Ireland on Wednesday.”

Dramatic moment gang blow up museum door & steal 2,500-year-old Golden Helmet in Ocean’s 11-style heist before vanishing

THIS is the dramatic moment a thieves pulled off a Ocean’s 11-style heist to steal a 2,500-year-old golden helmet and three priceless bracelets before vanishing into thin air.

Shocking footage shows the gang blasting through the doors of the Drents Museum in Assen, a quaint Dutch city known more for its motorsports than international art crime.

At 3.45am on Saturday, the tranquil streets turned chaotic as an explosion tore through the museum’s entrance.

Within minutes, the thieves had snatched the golden Helmet of Cotofenesti – an intricately decorated artefact dating back to 450 B.C.

They also took three spiral Dacian bracelets linked to ancient Romanian royalty.

“This is a dark day for the Drents Museum in Assen and the National History Museum of Romania in Bucharest. We are intensely shocked,” said the museum’s director, Harry Tupan.

He added the institution had never seen “such a major incident” in its 170-year history.

The helmet, a national treasure of Romania, was discovered in 1927 by a child in the small Romanian village of Cotofenesti.

It had once been used as a toy and even a water bowl for chickens before its historical value was realised.

Its front is adorned with engraved mythological creatures, a male figure appearing to sacrifice a ram, and two large ayes above the brow line.

The bracelets, thought to date back to 50 B.C., were just as significant as they were recovered from the black market after being looted from Dacian fortresses in the 1990s.

The heist unfolded like a scene from Ocean’s 11.

After the explosion, the gang disappeared with the gold relics, leaving the museum damaged but no one injured.

About 30 minutes later, police were alerted to a burning car nearby—a possible getaway vehicle set alight to cover their tracks.

“A possible scenario is that the suspects switched to another vehicle in the vicinity of the fire,” Dutch police said in a statement.

Authorities suspect several individuals were involved in the meticulously planned operation.

They’ve launched a forensic investigation, reviewed CCTV footage, and enlisted Interpol to track down the artefacts.

“This is something you don’t want as a museum, but also as a city and province,” said Marco Out, the mayor of Assen.

Romania’s President Klaus Iohannis said Dutch Prime Minister Dick Schoof assured him that every effort is being made to recover the stolen treasures.

It comes after a “blowtorch-wielding” jewel thief stuffed millions of pounds worth of bling into a rucksack during a brazen heist.

The £10million robbery was recorded on CCTV showing a bold burglar grabbing handfuls of bangles, necklaces and rings – quickly shoving them into his bag.

Inside the London mansion, the masked robber was snapped creeping around the property before he went for the jewels, nearly bumping into the maid as he wandered through the corridor.

Footage shows him with a flat cap, black gloves and a dark jumper as he carefully scoops up multiple strings of beads and jewels.

He methodically stuffs the bling into a black bag was caught on camera at the St John’s Wood house property on Avenue Road.

The owner of the stolen goods is hyper-rich Hong Kong influencer Shafira Huang, 35, known for being a cultural ambassador of Bond Street’s swanky Halcyon Gallery.

She has offered rewards totalling £1.5million for anyone that can catch the thief who made off with her items and return her belongings.

After the £38.5 million house was looted, the family immediately contacted the Metropolitan Police in a state of “big shock.”

Cops believe he is a white man in his late 20s to 30s and the family think it was a pre-meditated, professional, job.
