Another Weather Warning Issued For This Evening

Tuesday, 16 January 2024 12:43

It will come into effect at 6pm.

Another status yellow low temperature/ice warning has been issued for the midlands and the rest of the country tonight.

Met Éireann made the call this morning, with warnings of difficult travelling conditions due to severe frost and icy stretches.

The alert comes into effect at 6pm this evening and runs until 11am tomorrow morning.

Seperately, the Met Office in the UK has issued an ice warning for the six counties in Northern Ireland.

That kicks in at 5 o'clock this evening and expires just before midnight.

An animal rescue expert says pet owners should always keep in mind that if it's too cold for you, it's definitely too cold for your dog.

Met Éireann is warning the cold weather may cause animal welfare issues and pets should be kept inside if possible.
