If you spent last Monday sending Teresa Mannion memes to your mates, answering work emails and making copious amounts of tea and toast, you may have actually been in the minority.

While there's no doubt that's how our work day went during Hurricane Ophelia, it turns out many people in our great nation decided to indulge in a little 'me-time'.

According to the folk at Pornhub, on the day that the weather brought the country to a standstill, the adult site saw a substantial increase in traffic from Irish users.

Outlining the figures, the site's statistical analysts explained: "Beginning in the early morning, traffic was up 48% above normal levels at 02:00. We then found from 08:00 until 16:00 that traffic was as much as 53% above average."

"After a full day spent on Pornhub, Ireland’s evening traffic returned somewhat to normal, fluctuating plus or minus 10% from average."

Turning their attention to gender-specific analysis, they continued: "We also found that on October 16th traffic changes varied between Irish men and women."

"At 02:00, female traffic was up 53% compared to their average level, but at 03:00 Irish men peaked at 68% above average. At 07:00 in the morning, Irish women were on Pornhub 27% less than usual, while traffic from men was close to average."

"Later in the day, it seems that more of the traffic increase came from men, with their traffic being 61% above average at 15:00, and women up 34% during the same period."

And here was us thinking everyone would be on ASOS…
