There’s a storm coming…

Lidl stores are taking no chances with the current weather situation involving the Beast from the East and the approaching Storm Emma, and have made the decision to close all their stores on Thursday afternoon until Friday.

This comes following the issuing of a status red weather warning for Storm Emma by Met Eireann on Wednesday morning. The warning is in place from 4pm on Thursday until 12pm on Friday.

In a statement, Lidl said:

“We have made the decision to close all stores in Leinster and Munster from 3pm tomorrow, Thursday March 1st until 1pm on Friday March 2nd.

“Upon reopening, we ask customers for patience with our store teams who will have just resumed normal operations.

“We are continuing to assess and monitor the situation as it happens. As always the health and safety of all colleagues and customers remains an absolute priority.

“Decisions may be taken at individual store level to extend this closure period depending on localised weather conditions.”
