Dublin is to be lashed by heavy rain and flooding today as a Status Yellow rainfall alert is in place today.
It is set to be a blustery and wet day with “heavy downpours” which will result in “localised flooding,” a forecaster said.
The weather warning is valid until 9 pm tonight and is in place for Dublin, Kildare, Louth, Wicklow, and Meath. Temperatures will range at 8C or 9C during the daytime.
Tonight will see more showers and gusty winds for a time which may lead to more flooding. It’ll be cold with temperatures of 1C to 3C.
