The ‘calm’ following Storm Eunice has brought with it rain and wind for various parts of the country over the coming days, with Met Éireann issuing a number of weather advisories.
Meanwhile, ESB Networks crews are still working to restore power to approximately 8,000 homes, farms and businesses that remain without it this morning, predominantly in the areas of south Kerry, west Cork and south Wexford.
The storm left 80,000 without electricity across the country yesterday due to damaged power lines.
A spokesperson for ESB Networks said that crews have been out since first light this morning (Saturday, February 19) restoring power to thousands more customers and will work throughout the day to restore power to the 8,000 remaining customers without power.
They have apologised for the disruption to family and commercial life these interruptions in electricity supply have caused.
