    There was a tree down inside Carton, the wall was holding it up at an angle so it wasn't stopping traffic, on the Dunboyne Road part

    That is the one that slowed down the 2 trucks and double decker buses earlier:(
    Left Maynooth at 16:10 and barely made it there by 16:45.

    on another note,I see a lot of Celbridge, Clane and Salins are with out electricity.
    If anyone local to Maynooth is stuck let me know if I can help.
    Having kids and no electricity and making and sterilising and bottles would be a nightmare.

    Electricity was gone in Suncroft. Trees down too. For those in the south of the county.

    My sister got photos of it last night. Her boyfriend sometimes teaches there. She was fairly upset about it. Apparently there were 2 classes going on at the time.
