Motorists are being advised to take extra care on the roads this evening because of icy conditions in the midlands and continuing flooding in other counties.

Drivers in Co Mayo are also advised that the road from Ballinrobe to 'The Neal' remains heavily flooded and impassable. The Ballinrobe to Clonburr Rd is flooded but is passable.
