Threat of downpours remains
Despite the brighter outlook, residents in low-lying areas and flood plains remain fearful of the threat of further flooding as a result of the monsoon-like conditions that have now dominated the weather for the past 10 days.
While today’s forecast of sunshine with only a few scattered showers will provide a welcome break for homes and businesses under threat, Met Éireann has warned that some further heavy localised downpours are likely to occur tomorrow. The good news is that drier conditions with some spells of sunshine are expected for the rest of the week.
