No. In 1987 the UK had a very unusually low depression sweep in. The term "Hurricane" refers to tropical cyclones organizing in the North Atlantic or North Pacific. Hurricanes produce far greater winds and more precipitation.

The storm had winds at hurricane force, not averaging hurricane force so that's another reason why we cannot classify it as a hurricane. Although folk may tell you they experienced a hurricane in the UK - this is NOT true.

A lot of the hurricanes that hit the USA travel up along the east coast of the USA and then across the Atlantic Ocean. Some of these hit Ireland, though they are not as powerful then as they would be when they are in the Caribbean Sea and making landfall around that area. The waters in the north of the Atlantic Ocean are not as warm so the hurricanes do not get the same level of power. They are still quite strong and can do damage, though not on the scale as would be seen in some countries.

No, we can't get hurricanes or tornadoes in Ireland, and I would know, I lived there for 23 years.
