    High tides are occurring from the 8-12th February and are likely now to coincide with strong westerly winds which will add a large swell to already high seas. Coastal areas are most at risk.

    Looks ominous for the southwest esp with an onshore wind. Coastal flooding possibly severe

    For Southern areas this looks the worst storm of the winter imo.
    Wouldn't it be ironic if an unnamed system caused the most damage. Easily force 10 on the south coast.......High swell......and high tide all coinciding

    Likely to be named Imogen within next 24 hours.

    Good call power101

    RTE News : There were several incidents of flooding in Limerick arising from this morning's high tide and stormy conditions.

    Limerick City and County Council said the tide recorded is the second highest on record in Limerick city.

    The council is urging people to be extremely cautious along the River Shannon in Limerick City and along the Shannon Estuary at Foynes, Askeaton and Glin "until Storm Imogen and associated flooding dissipates".

    Meanwhile the ESB increased the water flow at Parteen Weir to 230 cubic metres per second today and warned of flooding downstream as a result.

    The areas of Springfield, Montpelier, Castleconnell, Mountshannon (Annacotty) and the University of Limerick were particularly at risk, it added.
