The Nineteen Arches vs. The Storm

I stood on the banks of the Avoca River last night and just watched the power of it. Storm Chandra has truly made its mark here in Arklow. After the earlier flooding, the water had receded enough for me to safely take this picture. The noise of the water rushing beneath the bridge made a deep, constant roar that you could feel as much as hear.

I think seeing the streetlights catch the whitecaps of the churning water creates such a moody, electric atmosphere. It’s wild, a bit scary, but undeniable in its beauty. Stay safe out there, everyone.
