THERE’S hard rain on the way.

While the weather hasn’t been that bad of late, things are going to change drastically from later tonight as Met Eireann has issued a Yellow Status Rainfall Warning for Kerry and many other counties.

Carlow, Kilkenny, Wexford, Wicklow, Cork, Kerry, Limerick, Tipperary and Waterford are also included in the warning of a spell of heavy rain during Tuesday morning that is likely to lead to accumulations of 25-35mm with local spot flooding.

The warning is valid from 3am on Tuesday morning until 3pm Tuesday afternoon.
