Flooding possible. Be prepared.
River levels on the River Lee are high, which has led to flooding of low lying land.
Property flooding is not expected. Flooding is affecting locations near the Lee, with low lying land and roads expected to be most affected.
Weather conditions are expected to improve throughout Friday and into tomorrow which will give rivers a chance to recover.
River levels are falling and will continue to fall throughout the day and into tomorrow.
We are closely monitoring the situation and monitoring rainfall and river levels.
Take care and avoid walking, cycling or driving through flood water.
This message will be updated by 9am tomorrow, Saturday 28th September, or as the situation changes.
