Flood risk as yellow rain warning hits Dublin and Wicklow

Heavy rain could cause flooding and difficult travelling conditions in parts of the Republic of Ireland on Friday.

Met Eireann issued a yellow rain warning for Dublin and Wicklow due to further spells of heavy rain until midday.

It comes as the entire country is set to be under a low-temperature and ice warning heading into the weekend.

Temperatures will fall to between minus 1C and minus 3C generally, with sharp frost and icy conditions, the weather bureau said.

The weekend’s yellow warning applies to all counties between 9pm on Friday and 10am on Saturday.

Met Eireann said Friday night will be mainly dry but “very cold” and frosty with some icy patches.

It said there was a chance of a few isolated showers in northern and north-western coastal parts early on.
