Met Eireann, the Irish National Meteorological Service, have issued a ‘Status YELLOW’ rainfall warning for North Tipperary starting at 12.00 noon today and lasting until around 4.00pm on Monday afternoon.
Yellow level weather alerts are for weather conditions that do not pose an immediate threat to the general population; rather only to those at risk who could be exposed by the very nature of their location or activity.
This warning remains in place for the counties of Cavan, Monaghan, Donegal, Dublin, Kildare, Laois, Longford, Louth, Wicklow, Offaly, Westmeath, Meath, Clare and the counties of Connacht, (Namely Galway, Leitrim, Mayo, Roscommon and Sligo).
Heavy rain is expected to lead to some flooding with potential water accumulation of some 30 to 50mm, and with the largest cascades occurring in the more mountainous areas.
Despite this rain; the day will remain mild, and humid with highest temperatures ranging between 16° and 19° Celsius.
Therefore it is probably best to remain indoors and catch up on your reading, unless of course you have to make a necessary journey.
In the latter event ‘Do go safely’.
I like YELLOW RAIN
