Storm Amy will impact the island of Ireland on Friday.<\/p>\n

Warnings have been issued for all counties.<\/p>\n

Met \u00c9ireann has issued a red warning – the highest level – for coastal waters between Fairhead (Antrim) and Loop Head (Clare).<\/p>\n

Level orange – the second highest level – warnings have been issued for counties Donegal, Galway, Leitrim, Mayo and Sligo.<\/p>\n

Yellow alerts have been issued elsewhere.<\/p>\n

The UK Met Office at this point have issued a yellow level warning for NI.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

A separate weather system will bring heavy and possibly thundery rain to much of the island today. An orange alert is in force for County Kerry and yellow level warnings are in force across most western counties.<\/p>\n

The Met Office has issued a heavy rain warning for Northern Ireland, which is in force until 22:00 BST on Thursday.<\/p>\n

Rainfall accumulations of 20-30mm are expected widely with over 40mm of rain over higher ground possible.<\/p>\n

This could lead to localised flooding and travel disruption. The heavier rain will affect most places through the evening commute. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n
