Met Éireann: We can sometimes 'overdo' weather warnings

A spokesman for Met Éireann has admitted they sometimes "overdo it" in order to err of the side of caution when it comes to issuing coded weather warnings.
The comments came after people in Limerick -- who woke up this morning to normal conditions for this time of year -- flooded phone lines at local radio station Live 95FM, demanding to know why Met Éireann had put Limerick on a Red Status weather alert the previous day.
