Message: <blockquote data-quote="Professor" data-source="post: 59405" data-attributes="member: 202">The thing is that the winter's just beginning so we can look forward to more flooding for the next 6 months.Having (in Ireland) just had the wettest jul/aug on record, things are looking unusually disastrous so far .  .  .  .  .  . Further homes and businesses across a number of counties were on Tuesday grappling with significant damage caused by “unprecedented” flooding after incessant rain, as the threat of more heavy showers in coming days loomed.Newry in Co Down was under water after the city’s canal broke its banks on Monday night, with several streets in the city centre left flooded on Tuesday. Eamonn Connolly, manager of Newry Business Improvement District Organisation, likened parts of Newry to a “lake”. “It’s certainly been unprecedented,” he said.Businesses and homes in Carlingford, Co Louth, also reported damage to premises following flooding, and a bridge outside Riverstown collapsed amid rising water on the Cooley peninsula.Houses in Dundalk were also impacted.Minister for Social Protection Heather Humphreys said a humanitarian assistance scheme for flood-hit households would be extended to people living in counties Louth and Wexford, as parts of the country prepare for Storm Ciarán.In Banbridge, Co Down, the Police Service of Northern Ireland (PSNI) warned on Tuesday afternoon that the level of the river Bann had risen “dangerously high”.(<img class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" alt="🤩" title="Star-struck    :star_struck:" src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/6.5/png/unicode/64/1f929.png" data-shortname=":star_struck:" />)[URL unfurl="true"]https://www.irishtimes.com/environment/2023/11/01/unprecedented-flooding-hits-several-counties-ahead-of-storm-ciaran/[/URL]Maybe it'll be calm, nice and dry for a few weeks after all this rain eventually passes over??<img class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" alt="😉" title="Winking face    :wink:" src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/6.5/png/unicode/64/1f609.png" data-shortname=":wink:" /></blockquote>
