A status yellow alert will be in affect in the region.

A meeting of the National Emergency Co-Ordination Group is underway to prepare the country for Storm Jorge.

Winds of 130 kilometres an hour or higher are expected, with status orange wind warnings in place tomorrow for counties in the west.

There will be a status yellow alert for the rest of the country.

Offaly forecaster Cathal Nolan says around 20-40mm of rain could also fall over the course of the weekend.

The Rhode man says this represents a slight drop on the two previous storms in the region:
