Storm Debi will bring “severe and damaging gusts” which may lead to damage to exposed and vulnerable structures, dangerous travelling conditions as well as damage to power lines and services.
The national forecaster has issued a Status Orange wind warning for 16 counties including: Carlow, Dublin, Kildare, Kilkenny, Laois, Longford, Louth, Meath, Offaly, Westmeath, Wicklow, Clare, Kerry, Limerick, Tipperary and Galway.
The warning comes into effect from 2am on Monday until midday on Monday afternoon.
A Status Yellow wind and rain warning will also come into effect for every county in Ireland from midnight tonight until 3pm on Monday afternoon.
“Very windy or stormy on Sunday night and Monday due to Storm Debi, accompanied by heavy rain with a chance of embedded thunderstorms and hail,” Met Éireann stressed.
Possible impacts of the Status Yellow wind and rain warning include the potential for fallen trees and branches, localised flooding and wave overtopping as well as “hazardous travelling conditions.”
A Status Yellow rain warning also comes into effect for Antrim, Armagh, Down, Tyrone and Derry in Northern Ireland, following communication from the Met Office in the UK.
“Heavy rain is likely to affect parts of Northern Ireland during Monday bringing disruption to travel,” the warning stresses, which lasts from 3am tonight until 2pm on Monday afternoon.
Two Status Orange marine storm warnings have also been issued by Met Éireann. The first is from Mizen Head to Valentia to Slyne Head from 1am on Monday until 6am the same day.
The second is from Belfast Lough to Carlingford Lough to Wicklow Head and on the Irish Sea, starting at 5am on Monday until 2pm in the afternoon.
Winds for these warnings will reach storm force 10, potentially reaching speeds of up to 102kph.
A Status Yellow gale warning is also due to come into effect for all coasts of Ireland and the Irish sea from 1am tonight until 5pm Monday evening.
“Cyclonic variable winds will reach gale force 8 or strong gale force 9, potentially storm force 10, overnight and during Monday, on Irish coastal waters and the Irish Sea,” Met Éireann warned.
