storm1 donegaldaily.comGARDAI are urging extreme caution on the roads this morning after an overnight storm, with strong gales continuing to batter the county.

There are reports of trees down in Leck, Letterkenny, Redcastle and Ardara. The Blaney Bridge is also closed and Arranmore ferries disrupted.

Drivers of high-sided vehicles are being urged slow down as cross-winds on the Gap between Donegal Town and Ballybofey are causing difficulties.

The dreadful wet weather will continue throughout the day.

The storms could even bring snow tomorrow, especially to higher ground.

Garda traffic corps officers are carrying out a number of safer driving patrols across the county today.

The ESB are currently attempting to reconnect power to over 100 homes in Stranorlar and Malin Head.

More than 2,000 homes in Donegal Town as well as homes in Fanad and Lettermacaward are also without electricity.
