Pics: The bad weather has caused some flooding in Clontarf

With more high tides forecast around the area, there may be worse yet to come

The bad weather experienced in the early hours of the morning today has caused some flooding along the promenade at Clontarf, and thanks to a few residents who have been using social media, we can get a look at the after effects. The water has come up from the seafront and gotten over the wall, spilling on to the promenade and causing a lot of flooding, which seems to be spreading further back.

The Gardai and county council have been informed, and are keeping an eye on the situation to see if it gets any worse in the coming hours.
