File image: Rolling News

From 3am on Friday.

Met Eireann has issued an orange level storm warning for County Kildare. 
 
The weather alert for Kildare will be in place from 03.00 - 11.00 Friday February 18th.
 
Storm Eunice is anticipated to be a multi hazard weather event bringing strong and damaging winds, localised flooding, fallen trees and power lines and other damage.
 
It is expected to impact County Kildare early on Friday morning and will affect Friday’s morning commute.  
 
Kildare County Council advises that response teams are mobilised, and it will continuously monitor the situation over the duration of the storm.
 
All road users are being advised to be aware of the dangers and to only undertake necessary travel or delay travel where possible. 
 
When the extreme weather passes road users will still have to contend with potentially hazardous road conditions such as flooded roads and possibly downed pylons, lines, trees, branches, and other debris which could block roads.
 
Any road closures or diversions put in place by Local Authorities and An Garda Síochána should be adhered to.
