RTÉ Weather Presenter Laughs Off Horrible Letter Posted To Her After Storm Ophelia
You may remember Joanna Donnelly from such weather forecasts as Monday's Storm Ophelia and the one where she dropped in a Troy McClure reference. Well, someone has taken great umbrage with her work this week.
We felt that Joanna had done such a great job covering Ophelia that we put together a list of reasons why she is Ireland's new Storm Queen but apparently not everyone was as impressed. There's always going to be one idiot.
This person actually went to the effort of writing a letter to Joanna and sending in the post, just to have a go at her. It reads:
Get off the stage Donnelly. You work for Met Éireann. You're a weather forecaster. That's all, no big deal. Nobody is remotely interested in you or your lifestyle. You're not even a little bit attractive. You're obviously trying to break into the entertainment celebrity side of tv, like some of your colleagues. Stick with your cushy job in Glasnevin, yeah.
In fairness I have lovely legs. Just can't see them on tv. My mother would be furious and demand I have this fingerprinted. pic.twitter.com/G9lK53qbaN

What a tosser. Joanna clearly took it in great jest though, tweeting 'I should elaborate that me and my colleague got a massive laugh from this last night. Ah come on, I said, not even a BIT attractive-pmsl.'
I also enjoyed someone's reply, accusing Evelyn Cusack of writing the letter.
