Donegal is wakening after being battered overnight by Storm Darragh.
The county was one of several which was put under a Status Red warning overnight until 3am this morning for heavy wind and rain.
As well as several fallen trees blocking roads this morning, there is also localised flooding in some areas.
Thousands of householders and business are also without power with many being told they will be without connection until after 5pm today.
Dozens of both sporting and social events were cancelled across the county in anticipation of the arrival of Storm Darragh last night.
They ranged from the annual North West Breast Cancer Ball last night to 10am mass at St Michael’s Church in Creeslough this morning (SAT).
Ferry sailings to Arranmore and Tory Island were also cancelled for today while the Harry Blaney was closed overnight to vehicles because of high winds.
Clear-up teams are expected in several locations at first light this morning after trees came down at a number of locations including the R236 between St. Johnston and Tullyowen, the R236 near Convoy at Broad Road and Councillor Brian Carr warned locals of a tree down this morning at Station Road in Glenties.
Other trees have fallen at the N56 close to the national school in Falcarragh while local county councillor Michael McClafferty reported tress down in Creeslough.
Flooding was reported at the Dry Arch Roundabout in Letterkenny while trees were also down at Lough Eske between Christchurch and Harvey’s Point Crossroads.
Many homes are still without power with powerlines being hit by high winds in a number of locations including Letterkenny, Carrigart, Muff, Newtowncunningham, Burnfoot and Lettermacaward.
Gardai have warned people who must travel this morning to continue to take care as many roads are also covered in debris such as fallen branches which came down overnight.
There are still strong winds in many places as Storm Darragh’s tail continues to leave the county.
