An orange warning for snow and ice has come into effect in Clare.
Met Eireann says this county and 12 others can expect travel disruption and poor visibility while the warning is in place.
The weather body is also warning of “very hazardous road conditions” across the county.
The warning will remain in place until 10am tomorrow morning.
Temperatures dropped below freezing overnight and there’s heavy snowfall in many parts of the county this morning, leading to poor visability.
The N68 Ennis to Kilrush Road is said to be particularly bad; two busses and a truck have left the road this morning. There are no reports of injuries.
Gardaí say road conditions are also bad on all side roads in West Clare and on the M18 motorway and are asking motorists to focus on the road and not on vehicles in the verges.
