<h3>Kerry County Council is continuing to monitor Storm Eunice this morning (Friday) and advises that people should remain indoors and not to travel.</h3>

The Council is asking members of the public to avoid unnecessary travel and reminds everyone that a Status Orange alert will be in place for Kerry until 11am.
Killarney National Park, Killarney House and Gardens and Muckross House are closed today due to the weather warnings issued by Met Éireann. The Department asks the public for their ongoing cooperation by refraining from visiting these sites for the duration of these storms.
“We expect to reopen most of our Parks tomorrow (Saturday), however, the Department will carry out site inspections today (Friday) to assess any damage prior to final decisions on reopening.”
Thousands of homes remain without power. The extent of power outages around the county is an indication of the severity of the storm and anyone travelling later today is advised to expect fallen trees, branches and debris and other disruptions.
Council crews will mobilise when it is safe to do so and will deal with any issues that arise over the coming hours.
The Council’s emergency phoneline is available at 066 7183588.
Further updates will be provided on the Council’s social media channels.
