THERE are reports of fallen trees in some areas of Donegal as strong winds take hold.

A tree has fallen on the Greencaste Road outside Moville, near the Garda Station. The tree caused damage to a parked car on the opposite side of the road.

The road is closed and motorists are advised to travel via Upper Ballynally instead.

Donegal County Council are on site working to clear the tree.

There were earlier reports of a tree being down on the Glencolmcille-Ardara road.

Motorists are advised to drive with extra care and attention.

A status yellow wind warning is in effect until 9pm tonight.

Met Eireann say that ‘unreasonable’ 100km/h winds will lash the entire county over the next few hours.
