Met Éireann has extended a Status Yellow warning for rainfall to all counties this morning.

Thundery downpours could lead to accumulations of between 25 and 40mm, with the risk of localised flooding.

The alert remains in place until 3 o'clock Saturday morning.

Gerry Murphy from Met Eireann says 'There is a band of rain affecting many areas at the moment with more heavy rain this evening. There is a risk of significant rainfall in short spaces of time which could result in spot flooding'.
