Wind and rain warnings remain in place for seven counties
Two separate Status Yellow weather warnings are in place in the west and north west this morning.
A rainfall warning is in place for Donegal, Leitrim, Mayo and Sligo with the risk of flooding.
As the ground is already saturated and river levels are elevated from the rainfall over the past number of days the rain over the coming hours may lead to some localised surface and river flooding.
