'Big scrap value in that!' - Storm Éowyn washes up an old victim of Storm Darragh on Irish beach
Oh buoy! The UK Met Office have finally found a weather buoy lost during Storm Darragh on a beach in Kerry.
A weather buoy belonging to the UK Met Office washed up on the shores of Reenroe Beach in Kerry on Friday due to the powerful gusts of Storm Éowyn.
Carlow Weather shared an image of the beached buoy on X to find its rightful owner which turned out to be the UK Met Office.
The UK Met Office Chief Executive, Professor Penny Endersby, responded to Carlow Weather's post to say: "We knew one slipped its moorings during Darragh! Guess this is it."
Storm Darragh hit Ireland and the UK in early December, but it hasn't been a match for the ferocious Storm Éowyn which saw wind speeds reaching up to 183km/h in some parts of the country on Friday.
