Authorities are preparing for disruption to Ireland's transport network and utility services this week due to Storm Emma.

The so-called 'Beast from the East' cold weather movement is expected to bring freezing temperatures, with the worst conditions in the south and east.

A Status Orange snow and ice warning will come into force for many parts of Leinster this afternoon – with snow accumulations of 4cm to 6cm by tomorrow morning.

A Status Yellow warning will come into force across the south east of the country later in the evening with accumulations of up to 3cm in parts.

With that in mind, here is a list of useful websites and telephone numbers to have handy for the upcoming bad weather.
