Wow, the weather we’re seeing recently has been unbelievable with no end in sight! 🌞

Give this caution from Limerick fire and rescue a read and just be mindful.

Enjoy the rays everyone, I know I will! 😎

As the dry spell continues, the Forest Fire Danger rating of 📛RED📛 is again extended. This warning is due to last until at least 12:00 on Friday July 6th. Given the medium term forecast is for little or no rain and a return to high temperatures it is likely it will be extended again on Friday.

At this stage there is very little moisture content left in most vegetation which raises the potential for fire. Remember:

✅ Dispose of cigarette butts safely

✅ Dispose of barbecue coals safely

❌ Do not light any fires of any kind near forests, bogs or dried out vegetation

✅ In the event of a fire, Call 999/112 straight away and get us out to deal with it 🚒👩🏻‍🚒👨🏻‍🚒

Just a heads up to those of you in Limerick regarding New Years firework display being cancelled.

THREAT OF FLOODING AND SEVERE WEATHER MEANS LIMERICK'S NEW YEAR'S EVE EXTRAVAGANZA MUST BE POSTPONED

Met Éireann has issued a YELLOW weather warning due to Storm Dylan with wind gusts up to 110 km per hour forecast until New Year’s Eve morning. High tides are predicted on Sunday morning at 4.29am and Sunday evening at 4.55pm.

As a result Limerick City and County Council, acting on health and safety advice, has instructed that flood barriers be erected immediately along Clancy Strand, O’Callaghan Strand and the boardwalks and will remain in place for New Year’s Eve.

Clancy Strand is the event site for the large scale projection mapping onto King John's Castle and unfortunately due to the risk of flooding this area is not available for use by the event management company.

It is with great regret that the extravaganza must be postponed and will now happen as part of Limerick’s St Patrick’s Festival 2018.
