Power has been restored to many of the homes that lost electricity supplies in Northern Ireland as a result of last night’s bad weather.
The wintry conditions spread south of the border making driving difficult in parts of counties Cavan and Donegal overnight and this morning.
Warmer temperatures and sunshine has cleared most of the snow but with temperatures due to fall below freezing again tonight, Met Eireann are predicting more snow for the north and west tonight. A gale warning has also been issued.
Engineers from Northern Ireland Electricity (NIE) worked through the night to repair fallen power lines as gale force winds and heavy blizzards battered the North.
Around 1,600 homes remained without power early today but NIE say 400 homes aremain without power but supplies will be restored by mid afternoon. The main areas affected were Coleraine, Co Derry, Omagh, Co Tyrone and Ballymena, Co Antrim.
A statement issued by NIE this afternoon said: "NIE expects that the majority of customers currently without supply will be restored by early afternoon. However, it may take most of the day to reach all isolated faults and complete final repairs."
Flights have been delayed today at Aldergrove airport and a number of sailings, including Dun Laoghaoire/Hollyhead have been disrupted or cancelled.
Faults can be reported to Northern Ireland Electricity on 08457 643 643.
