A spectacular video captured by Iain Miller shows the force of Storm Fionn as it battered Gweedore’s coastline yesterday.

Mountaineer Iain shot this video at 4pm yesterday when Storm Fionn made landfall at Cnoc Fola.

Speaking to Donegal Daily, Iain explained what the weather conditions were like during the shoot.

“There was a 100km/hr westerly wind and 8.7m westerly swell combined with a low mid tide, creating a chaotic emulsified sea state with heaving geos filled with thick salt foam, it also just began to sleet heavily.”

Although Storm Fionn has now passed over Ireland, further adverse weather is forecast for Donegal.

Gusty winds and heavy rain and snow showers are expected to strike tonight as a “deepening depression” casts over Donegal, with lowest temperatures of 0 to 3 degrees.
