The Night of the Big Wind (Irish: Oíche na Gaoithe Móire) was a powerful European windstorm that swept across what was then the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland, beginning on the afternoon of 6 January 1839, causing severe damage to property and several hundred deaths. 20 to 25% of houses in north Dublin were damaged or destroyed, and 42 ships were wrecked. The storm attained a very low barometric pressure of 918 hPa (27.1 inHg) and tracked eastwards to the north of Ireland, with gusts of over 100 knots (185 km/h; 115 mph) before moving across the north of England to continental Europe, where it eventually dissipated. At the time, it was the worst storm to hit Ireland for 300 years. Liverpool also suffered severely, with many shipwrecks and much structural damage. 120 people die

  • Rinneadh dochar mór ar fud na hÉireann agus i gcodanna den Bhreatain, le linn “Oíche na Gaoithe Móire” ar an 6/7 Eanáir 1839. Thosaigh an spéirling timpeall meán lae ar 6 Eanáir i gContae Mhaigh Eo. Fuair idir 250 agus 300 duine bás sa stoirm b'fhéidir, an chuid is mó díobh ar mhuir amach ó chósta thiar na hÉireann. Bhí na mílte duine gan díon gan dídean mar thoradh ar Oíche na Gaoithe Móire. (ga)
  • In de Night of the Big Wind (Nacht van de grote wind, in het Iers Oídhche na Gaoithe Móire) trok van 6 op 7 januari 1839 een zeer zware storm over Ierland die grote schade en honderden doden veroorzaakte. 20-25% van de huizen in Dublin werd verwoest en 42 schepen zonken. Een depressiebaan vanaf de Atlantische Oceaan met de zeer lage luchtdruk van 918 hectopascal (27.1 inHg) verplaatste zich over Ierland in noordoostelijke richting. Ze bracht windstoten voort van meer dan honderd knopen (185 km/uur) en veroorzaakte de zwaarste storm in Ierland in 300 jaar. (nl)

  • The Night of the Big Wind (Irish: Oíche na Gaoithe Móire) was a powerful European windstorm that swept across what was then the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland, beginning on the afternoon of 6 January 1839, causing severe damage to property and several hundred deaths. 20 to 25% of houses in north Dublin were damaged or destroyed, and 42 ships were wrecked.

At the time, it was the worst storm to hit Ireland for 300 years. Liverpool also suffered severely, with many shipwrecks and much structural damage. 120 people died as a result of such accidents in the city alone. Two major shipwrecks resulted in damage of at least £500,000, equivalent to £52.2 million in 2020. (en)
