Storm Jorge: Government announces park closures due to weather warnings

He appealed to people “to reassess your plans for this weekend” and not to make unnecessary journeys.Westmeath County Council said on Friday evening that water levels in the River Shannon are continuing to rise in the Athlone area, albeit at a slower rate than previous days.

“The combination of permanent and temporary flood defences in Athlone town is proving to be effective in preventing significant flooding and it is anticipated that the predicted rise of 6cm by Sunday 1 March will not cause major difficulties in the town,” it added. “The promenade will remain open only as long as it is safe and will almost certainly be closed to traffic during the status red period,” it said in a statement.

Druid Theatre Company’s matinees performance at the Black Box Theatre scheduled for 3pm has been cancelled. The evening performance at 8pm will go ahead.
