AS the amber wind warning comes to an end this evening, authorities across Fermanagh are dealing with ‘widespread disruption,’ while thousands of residents remain without power.
The public have been urged to be patient, exercise caution, and only make necessary journeys as Storm Amy passes over, leaving localised flooding, fallen trees, and property damage in her wake.
In a statement issued this evening, a spokesperson for PSNI Fermanagh and Omagh said, “We are seeing widespread disruption across the district with trees down and localized flooding making travel extremely difficult.
“Roads Service crews are tirelessly clearing routes, but please understand that resources are limited and they are dealing with a high volume of incidents.
“We need your help: Please avoid unnecessary travel over the next few hours while the worst of the wind continues.”
While the amber wind warning came to an end at 8pm, a yellow warning remains for wind and rain until tomorrow morning.
