Enniscorthy has been badly hit…

Captured by Skycam Ireland, this aerial drone footage show just how terrible the flooding has been in parts of Wexford over the past few days.

The video, which was filmed around 3.30pm on Wednesday 30 December, gives some idea as to the extent of the damage caused by the flooding of the River Slaney, with crowds of people visibly gathered at the edges of the affected areas.

Brendan, from Skycam Ireland, explained that although levels have receded, local residents continue to be worried as there’s more rain due over the weekend.

Met Éireann has also issued a yellow alert for wind and another update on today and tomorrow’s weather. You can read more on that by clicking here.
