Storm Ciara rages on today, extending weather warnings across the country. And if that wasn’t enough, there’s another storm on the way.

A yellow wind warning put in place for the west of Ireland has been extended to 8pm tonight.

Gusts of up to 110km/h will result in a risk coastal flooding in Donegal, Galway, Leitrim, Mayo, Sligo, and Kerry.

Meanwhile, a yellow snow and ice warning is in place for the entire country until midnight tonight.

While the warnings are set to end tonight, the Met Office in the UK has set an alert for Storm Dennis. Thankfully, Storm Dennis is not expected to be as extreme as Storm Ciara but will likely hit Ireland next weekend.

For now, it’s hard to tell how bad Storm Dennis will get, but it will be unsettled with a band of rain sweeping in.

Marine transport from Belfast, Dublin, and Rosslare has been put on hold due to an ongoing status orange marine warning from Met Eireann.

Wintry showers are expected tonight, especially in western and northern counties with lowest temperatures of minus 1 to plus 2 degrees.

In general, Storm Ciara is expected to stay unsettled but will turn less cold from Thursday onwards.
