Met Éireann has warned of further flooding after issuing a Status Yellow rain warning for counties Carlow, Kilkenny, Wexford, Cork, Waterford, Dublin, Louth, Wicklow for tomorrow.
Met Éireann said that further heavy rain falling on saturated ground, combined with high river levels and high tides, will lead to localised flooding, river flooding and difficult travel conditions.
The warning for Carlow, Kilkenny, Wexford, Cork, Waterford is valid from 1pm tomorrow until 9am on Tuesday.
The warning for Dublin, Louth, Wicklow comes into effect from 9pm tomorrow until 1pm on Tuesday.
Meanwhile, a Yellow ice warning has been issued by the UK Met Office for Antrim, Armagh, Down, Fermanagh, Tyrone, Derry.
The warning is valid from 7pm today until 9am tomorrow.
The forecaster is advising that icy patches may form on untreated surfaces during tonight into tomorrow morning.
Met Éireann has said that spells of heavy and persistent rainfall will continue through the week, particularly in southern and eastern coastal counties.
Rain will fall on saturated ground where river levels are high with high tides expected this week.
This will lead to further flooding along rivers and in coastal areas.
Waterford City and County Council said its ground crews have been working overnight and will continue working today and over the coming days to alleviate flooding, clean up in its aftermath, and prepare for the risk of further flooding.
It advised the public to continue to exercise caution, heed public safety advice and avoid unnecessary journeys as driving conditions may be hazardous, as surface water remains on many routes.
Avoid driving through flowing or standing water and if the road ahead is flooded, do not enter, turn around and find another route. Motorists are also reminded to be conscious of vulnerable road users such as pedestrians and cyclists.
