Power back on in Dublin city centre homes

Power has been restored to Dublin city centre homes, with efforts on-going to restore power to homes in Drumcondra.

The city was hit by major power outages earlier.

@breakingnewsie @Brianborou Hi my belief is that everyone is back up and running in the City Centre. We continue to work on #Drumcondra
