We hate to put a damper on Christmas cheer but according to reports, there’s another storm on the way.
It’s due to land on Tuesday, bringing strong winds and heavy rain to most of the country.
There’re rumours that this particular storm will go by the name of Frank but that hasn’t been confirmed as of yet.
Met Éireann advises that people living in the west, north and south of the country should be extra vigilant.
The national forecaster says: “This is from another powerful Atlantic storm (may be named Frank) out to the west of Ireland which may produce some damaging gusts over Ireland and further flooding so please keep in touch with the latest forecasts and warnings from Met Eireann”.
“Be aware also that there will be exceptionally high Atlantic waves along the north, west and south coast”.
It’s thought that the storm will move towards Iceland on Wednesday but due to “the trailing front over Ireland” we’re likely to see heavy rain for the rest of the week.
Flooding is likely to continue and “the further outlook for Thursday and the start of the new year is for a continuation of this changeable Atlantic regime with some potentially severe spells”.
