Nothing over the bar

Storm Doris hit this parish hard…

Over the past 36 hours, Storm Doris has caused chaos throughout Ireland, felling a number of trees and leaving thousands of homes without power.

The worst of the storm seems to have passed, and the national weather warnings have been lifted with just a couple of status yellow marine warnings in place.

But Doris will have a lasting effect on some areas of the country, as it damaged a famous Game of Thrones scene in Antrim earlier today.

In Trim, Co Meath, the local GAA pitch was severely hit by the storm and didn’t hold up well at all as Doris toppled the goalposts and knocked the posts holding up the nets behind the goal.

The below images were captured by Fergal Lynch…

As of yet there has been no announcement on where the Camogie League match will be played.
