A Status Yellow wind and rain warning issued by Met Eireann for Kilkenny very much lived up to the billing this week as Storm Chandra hit Noreside along with other parts of the country.

Very strong and gusty winds along with heavy rain made driving conditions challenging with Kilkenny County Council advising against any unnecessary travel.

A number of isolated incidents were reported around the county but the towns of Callan of Graignamanagh were hardest hit by the conditions at the time of writing.
