  "account": "A Status Yellow wind warning has been issued for Donegal and Mayo, signaling very strong southwesterly winds. The warning, which began at midnight, is set to last until midday. Met Éireann predicts that the high winds may dislodge debris, create difficult driving and cycling conditions, and generate large coastal waves. Fallen trees and branches are also possible. A separate yellow wind warning will cover counties Antrim and Down, beginning at 6pm yesterday and ending at 3am today. Another warning for Antrim and Derry starts at 3am and ends at 9pm tonight. Meanwhile, ESB Networks continues to restore power to customers who lost electricity during Storm Boelo. Around 53,500 properties across the island of Ireland were without power on Sunday morning, with Northern Ireland Electricity Networks restoring power to all 12,500 affected customers.",
