Update 1000 April 25th
Rainfall accumulation totals have decreased across parts of the south while they remain similar to the previous run in the east and northeast which includes eastern Ulster for the duration of the event. Several hours of moderate to heavy rain at first in the eastern side of the country while the rain continues to move away from the south but another band will drift onshore here later. Rain becomes lighter in the east during the evening and become intermittent here. Rain may return overnight to the eastern side of the country but the intensity decreases but remains persistent. The flood risk continues with a lot of standing water and rivers swelling with high tides due today in the east and overnight tonight but should subside slightly if rain remains light for a length of time.
Over higher ground of the east, the rainfall totals remain high with up to 60mm a possibility during this event which will lead to the river Liffey remaining high along with the Dodder and all rivers in the Wicklow mtns.
Next update at lunchtime today when more information is made available.
