Heavy flooding is affecting many parts of the country as Ireland continues to feel the after-effects of Storm Desmond.

Met Éireann says a yellow weather warning is still in place for Munster and Leinster.

Forecasters say the rain is becoming less intense, but between 20 and 25mm of rain is expected in some areas for the rest of today and tonight.

Hmm, getting to work today isn't ideal.
