Met Éireann forecaster Gerry Murphy has warned that the storm, which is due to hit Ireland mid week will “further exacerbate flooding problems” in some parts of Munster and Leinster. On Wednesday and Thursday, Storm Ciarán is set to bring more heavy rain and strong winds, with Munster and Leinster set to be among areas worst affected. It will remain unsettled for the rest of the week.
A number of roads are closed in counties Down, Armagh and Antrim due to flooding caused by heavy overnight rain falling on already saturated ground. “I walked in chest waders and the water was up to my waist outside of someone’s front door,” he said.Coastguard volunteer Alan Duggan in Rosslare, Co Wexford, ahead of Storm Ciarán.
