Meanwhile, there will be rainfall amounts of 30 to 50 mm with some localized flooding. Highest totals in mountainous areas. Both warnings are in effect for 24 hours.
Looking at the Rainfall Radar on the Met.ie website, it looks like there will be little respite from the rain in the Tralee area all day. The bad news is that Friday looks like it also be a wet one. There will be spells of dry weather on Saturday, but Sunday will see a return of heavy showers.
