PIC: This Achill Island weather report is a small piece of comic gold

Tony Cuddihy

The person who wrote this certainly has a way with the words.

“Gail will have lingered with us overnight and remain with us for Christmas dinner and dessert; she will however be called a taxi and sent onward by the time the evening film starts.”

We don’t know who writes the weather reports from the Achill Island Coast Guard’s Facebook account (possibly Martin King, probably not), but we love this.

It always makes a violent winter storm seem like an old friend who’s had a bit too much to drink, so you send him home in the nicest way possible.

Thanks to Alan Cadden for sending this our way.
