Tá daoine in oirthear Chorcaí agus in iarthar Phort Láirge ag dul i ngleic inniu le lorg na stoirme a bhuail an réigiún inné agus a d’fhág neart bailte agus sráidbhailte faoi uisce.
Cé go raibh fógra flannbhuí eisithe ag Met Éireann inné agus báisteach throm geallta acu, ní raibh aon choinne ag daoine leis an tréine a bhí inti.
Meastar, go deimhin, gur thit báisteach míosa in imeacht lae.
