Carlow and Kilkenny is to get hit with heavy rain and winds of up to 90 kilometres an hour today.
Storm Abigail has come in over the Atlantic and hits land with counties on the West Coast being hit hardest, while counties here in the East have a yellow warning in place.
Already by lunchtime today winds of up to 76kph have been recorded locally.
It’s expected to last today and tomorrow and Alan O Reilly of www.carlowweather.com says it’s not looking great for the weekend either.
