Storm Bram is forecast to deliver very strong gale-force southerly winds, with the most severe conditions expected along coastal areas.
Met Éireann is warning of potential impacts including flooding in low-lying coastal regions, wave overtopping, hazardous travel conditions, debris and unsecured objects being displaced, as well as disruptions to outdoor events.
Local authority crews will be on standby as the storm approaches Leitrim. Motorists are urged to take extra care, allow additional travel time and reduce speed if travel is absolutely necessary.
