Council considers flood alert system
Tim Lucey said he would bring a full report to council on Monday week outlining the council’s response to Thursday’s flood emergency, and how it plans to respond to similar incidents in future. He confirmed last night that a general flood alert was being considered, but warned that it could only be of a general nature.
Cork City Council received a weather alert from Met Eireann, warning of heavy rainfall of up to 70mm in parts of Munster, on Wednesday afternoon.
