Storm Éowyn blew through Ireland on Friday 24th of January, reaching unprecedented speeds of up to 118mph, breaking records and wreaking havoc. The red alert which covered the entire country was also a first.
With lots of trees down, and roofs of every description ripped off structures and buildings, the prospect of damage throughout the agri-sector is daunting.
Scotland got walloped too, and with another storm hitting the UK and Ireland within days of Éowyn, January 2025 is ending with a sting in its tail.
