Met Eireann has issued a Rain Warning indicating that 25 to 30 mm of rain is expected to fall in the period 6:00am Wednesday 25th to 6:00 am Thursday 26th April.

In preparation for this we would like to advise residents that our Gully Crews have been out today and have checked all ‘hot spots’ across the county. All screens have been checked and cleaned as of 3.00pm this afternoon.

Our Gully Crews are on high alert and will check and clean the screens again this evening. The crews will be on duty at 6:30am tomorrow (Wednesday) morning, when all screens will once more be checked and cleaned.

Additional resources from other sections will be drafted in tomorrow to assist if necessary.

Further information will be posted on our Emergency Updates Blog as soon it becomes available.
