As a result of Storm Éowyn, Uisce Éireann customers in Killaloe, Scariff and Cratloe, Co. Clare are likely to be experiencing a disruption to their water supply due to ongoing power outages.

Customers are reminded to use their own containers when taking water from tankers and to boil water before consumption as a precautionary measure.

Darragh Conneely, Uisce Éireann’s Regional Operations Manager, said: "Uisce Éireann crews and the ESB are carrying out investigative works and working to restore power so that production of treated water can recommence as quickly and as safely as possible."
