One of the highest waves ever recorded in Irish waters struck off the Donegal coast yesterday morning during Storm Franklin.
The giant wall of water measured over 28.1 metres in height, taller than a six-storey building or six double-decker buses stacked on top of each other.
It was recorded by the M4 weather buoy, which is positioned 83km west of Rossan Point, between 2am and 3am on Monday morning.
