PICS: Strong Winds From Storm Ali Are Wreaking Havoc On The Streets Of Dublin Today

Storm Ali landed in Dublin overnight and with it a wave of destruction which is reminding some of the levels we saw with Ophelia last October.

There are a number of incidents around the city that motorists and commuters should be aware of and the Dublin Fire Brigade Twitter account is being its usual helpful self by keeping us all informed.

The Garda Traffic Twitter account is also dishing out plenty of handy information...

It's looking fairly blustery at Dublin Airport where a number of flights were cancelled today...

The flags outside our original passenger terminal are being buffeted in the high winds. #StormAli pic.twitter.com/egoEVTzM6B
