IT’S an area prone to flooding in the past and this time it’s no different.

We went to Ballymullen to see the extent of the flooding and it looks bad as you can see in the video (below) taken at 1.30pm today.

The fire service and civil defence were on the scene doing their best to alleviate the situation in the relentless rain and gale force winds.

The flooding stretched all the way from the post office right down to the exit at the end and out onto the main road. The red status rainfall alert is due to end at 3am Sunday morning.
