Gardaí are urging motorists to drive with extreme care this morning after temperatures dipped to below minus four degrees in Clare overnight.
A status orange weather alert remains in place until 10 o’clock this morning, and while main roads have been gritted, there’s a risk of icy conditions on minor roads and in sheltered areas.
Meanwhile, with schools re-opening this morning after the Christmas break, and many workers on extended holidays also making a return, commuters are being urged to allow extra time for their journeys today.
