UPDATE: 10.40pm: Donegal County Council has issued a notice that the R265 between Rossgier and Porthall is now passable with care.

Heavy flooding has been reported on a number of roads in East Donegal this Sunday night. 

Downpours have caused both the Rossgier to St Johnston road and Ballinalecky to St Johnston routes to be impassable.

Flooding has also been reported on other routes in the area, including those between Ballybofey and Strabane.

Emergency service workers with Donegal County Council are on the scene.

Motorists are being advised to exercise extreme caution.

A Status Yellow rainfall warning is in place for Donegal, Cavan and Leitrim as heavy rain is set to continue for a time tonight, bringing further risks of spot flooding. The weather alert is in place until midnight.

The AA Roadwatch is warning motorists to: “Only drive through surface water if you know it’s not too deep for your vehicle.”
