Storm Jocelyn set to "pack a punch" as it approaches Ireland.
According to the latest weather forecast, the disruptive storm will bring thunderous conditions in its wake.
#StormJocelyn is a big system and people asking about it being bigger than Isha, well it isn’t all about size you know! Jocelyn is big storm but it won’t be as intense as it moves North of Ireland. It will pack a punch & cause issues but not as bad as Isha in terms of peak winds. pic.twitter.com/6LpUu40eF5

Following on from Storm Isha, which saw tens of thousands people without electricity nationwide, Storm Jocelyn is thought to bring its own weather warnings and will affect the north of Ireland the most.
