The West Cork coast was lashed by coastal surges but damage to property was not as severe as many had feared as roads were swamped in the morning tide.
The impact of strong winds, heavy rainfall and a coastal surge meant locations across the county from Bantry to Youghal experienced flooding, with Bantry the worst hit in terms of buildings affected.
