The National Directorate for Fire and Emergency Management Crisis Management Team have been meeting today and are liaising with Met Éireann and other relevant officials following the Orange Rainfall Warning issued by Met Éireann which is in effect from 11pm tonight until 8am tomorrow (Friday 28 October) morning. The counties affected are Carlow, Cavan, Dublin, Kildare, Kilkenny, Laois, Longford, Louth, Meath, Monaghan, Offaly, Tipperary, Waterford, Westmeath, Wexford, and Wicklow.
All Local Authority Severe Weather Assessment Teams are on standby and are monitoring Met Éireann forecasts and local conditions during this period, due to an increased risk of flooding. The NDFEM will continue to liaise with Met Éireann and Local Authorities during this period.
Due to the risk of flooding, the public are advised to monitor Met Éireann forecasts for their area and to be aware of the weather conditions and to heed safety warnings.

The NDFEM will issue further updates if necessary.
