Limerick City and County Council crews have been responding to localised flooding across Limerick.
Images show crews clearing floods on Bridge Street, Limerick City and on the L1227 at Kilfergus, Glin.
The public are reminded to stay informed through Met Éireann and local authority channels and adjust your travel plans if necessary.
➡️ Motorists should be alert for fallen trees, debris and difficult driving conditions
Never attempt to drive through flooded roads.
➡️ Allow extra time for essential travel.
➡️ Expect surface water, and debris can lead to poor visibility.
➡️ Do not bypass Road Closed signs as the road ahead is unsafe, the damage may be hidden beneath water and you may be putting your life at risk.
➡️ Do not drive through floodwater, please turn back and use another route.
➡️ Check with transport operators when planning journeys.
➡️ Stay back from riverbanks, streams and canals as water levels may rise quickly.
➡️ Keep children and pets away from waterways and flooded areas.
➡️ Do not park cars on gullies.
