NO sooner has one weather warning ended than another is about to take effect here.

There were strong winds overnight in Kerry and we can expect more of the same this evening and tonight.

A Status Yellow Wind Warning has been issued for Kerry, Cork, Clare, Galway, Mayo, Sligo, Leitrim and Donegal. It comes into effect at 4pm until 1am on Saturday morning.

A further spell of strong winds will occur later today and tonight. Westerly winds with mean winds of 55 to 65 km/h and gusts of 100km/h are possible, especially in coastal areas. High seas will bring a risk of coastal flooding.

The weekend is looking mixed with Saturday seeing some heavy showers throughout the day, mixed with dry and sometimes sunny spells, but thankfully Sunday is looking like a much drier day.
