Excellent production, brilliant visuals and great description.

[@eddieforde]

Thanks very much Denis 👍🏻

[@JimShiel-px5dn]

Going to save this clip Eddie it's one to watch over and over. Your getting good at it 😅

[@eddieforde]

You’d want to be careful Jim, you could end up with a North cork accent 😉

[@mikehayes9723]

Incredible

[@eddieforde]

Thanks Mike, it sure was 🌊🌊

[@gregorymclaughlin6206]

The magnificent Irish storm

[@eddieforde]

Most definitely Gregory, a real joy. 👍

[@icantfly1001]

Brilliant 👏👏👏

[@eddieforde]

Thanks very much Tom 😁

[@DarrenJSpoonley]

Outstanding Eddie FairPlay for braving the conditions but boy were you rewarded?

[@eddieforde]

It was pretty awesome alright Darren. I couldn't get over the amount of people at the beach just experiencing the wind. No one was doing anything stupid as you'd often see in this type of weather, instead everyone was just enjoying being blasted by the wind.. 🌬️, I finally got some nice footage of the waves breaking over the headland too,, happy with that. 😁

[@elizabethohalloran200]

Watching it on the big screen via the Firestick is just glorious! Thanks so much Eddie!☘️👍..I’m a real weather geek and there is nothing better than those giant coastal crashing waves. Hello to my home turf of Cork and Kerry! ☘️🙏☘️🙏

[@eddieforde]

thanks Elizabeth, its definitely one for the big screen alright. tbh, once I'm done editing them, I only ever watch them back on the tv. With any luck we might get a few more storms over the winter (that don't do much damage )and that have great waves 🌊 🤞🏻

[@robertcarter9748]

Well worth your efforts Eddie, some great still shots from it as well, in very difficult conditions. Never seen so much flume, almost like a snow scene.! Respect to the mighty ocean too.

[@eddieforde]

thanks Robert, yea, the foam was something else, earlier in the day over at Coumeenole it was like soup, and obviously as in the video , during peak storm at Clogher, I was thinking of snow also, like you say.. cool to see it all the same . 👍

[@Rick_7888]

Just majestic - so fantastic, could watch a long reel of just the ocean waves in action like this.

[@eddieforde]

thanks Carol, it's amazing to watch alright 👍

[@chrismoose64]

To call it wild just doesn’t cut it. I have fond memories of that coastline from my years living there (‘79-‘83). Incredible part of the world. Thanks for sharing, Ed.

[@eddieforde]

It was fresh alright Chris 😉 And yea, I just keep heading on down there, it’s amazing. 👍

[@ruatoomey9107]

Ah yeah, the wild Atlantic way. Nice shots pal

[@eddieforde]

thanks Rua, its a well deserved title alright isn't it.. 👍

[@tomasofaolain3117]

Crashing winds and lashing sea

[@eddieforde]

[@keithmcshane8005]

Wow Eddie a stunning bit of footage of the real power of nature, top class as usual 👏 👌 👍ATB

[@daveedmunds137]

Eddie was great to meet up lad , and van is brilliant kid 👏👏

[@eddieforde]

likewise , to finally meet you Dave, and just the randomness of meeting on a small cliff watching waves... 😎 🌊

[@cormacpwalsh]

Stunning images and a glimpse of the sound. Is there a version without the - well crafted - music? With huge respect to the musician and editor these gorgeous would be great to experience with the actual sound.

[@eddieforde]

Thanks Cormac👍 No other version, what made it great to look at made it impossible to capture usable audio , wind 🌬️

[@TheWanderingIrishman]

Another great video Eddie, I love that part of the world. Keep up the good work, you're putting out pure quality lately.

[@eddieforde]

Thanks for that Shane, I’m lucky it’s so close to me. 👍

[@randyosgood9243]

WOW Eddie WOW. Great video massive wave action.

[@eddieforde]

thanks Randy, it was pretty awesome alright, I've been waiting a while to get this type of weather on video 😁

[@Zoe-yy7fg]

Das Meer ist wie das Atmen Gottes. Fasziniert mich total, besonders wenn es stürmt. Danke für das schöne Video, viele Grüße nach Irland 💚.

[@eddieforde]

thank you Zoe, it was a pretty cool to witness it alright, 👍

[@elizabethohalloran200]

The sea is like the breathing of God….perfect description!🙏👍💚💗

[@AdrianNewcombe]

Was great to meet you there Eddie. Was wild there on Saturday.

[@eddieforde]

likewise Adrian , a pleasure. It was good fun alright watching the wave action, and having the chat 🌊 I checked out your website afterwards when I got home, its really rather fantastic tbh 👍

[@Prometheus_43]

Boom...1st!

[@eddieforde]

🥳 nice 😊

[@piatheiltoft67]

Wow!!! God Im missing it. Best place to be in a storm. Did you by chance meet Florian Walsh a photographer from Dingle? 😊❤

[@eddieforde]

hi Pia, i finally got there in a good storm to capture the waves coming over the headland, as you're aware, it's been on the list a long time ✔😁 i did not meet him, nor do i know him, but i see him posting shots of Kinard earlier in the week..

[@gregorymclaughlin6206]

You might think that the sea is company, Exploding comfortably down on the cliffs But no: when it begins, the flung spray hits The very windows, spits like a tame cat Turned savage. We just sit tight while wind dives And strafes invisibly. Space is a salvo, We are bombarded with the empty air. Strange, it is a huge nothing that we fear. "Storm on the Island", Seamus Heaney

[@eddieforde]

Nice one Gregory, I’m not a poetry guy, but that sums it up well alright. 👍
