If you’re planning on getting behind the wheel this morning, best take note.
The seemingly never-ending cycle of terrible weather is continuing to play havoc in Ireland, with virtually no part of the country left unaffected by flooding in recent days.
Several roads throughout the country have been affected and many are impassable, while extreme caution is urged on others that are probably best avoided if at all possible.
AA Roadwatch have been providing updates on the state of several affected roads this morning, with Kilkenny, Tipperary and Westmeath appearing to have borne the brunt of the worst of the weather.
