Only weeks after Storm Arwen, Storm Barra is on its way and due to hit tomorrow. Met Éireann issued a red wind warning for Cork and Kerry, which will come into effect at 6am on Tuesday and last until 9pm.
Met Éireann says: "
Due to a combination of high waves, storm surge and high tide, coastal flooding is expected. Disruption to power and travel are likely" in Cork and Kerry.
More recently, Clare now also has a red wind warning.
