Dear Mams and Dads,
This is the message received from the Department of Education advising schools not to open tomorrow. Our apologies for any inconvenience and we hope that you and your families remain safe.
Yours sincerely,

A Red Alert has now been issued by Met Éireann relating to severe wind for counties Clare, Kerry and Cork.
A status orange warning has issued for counties Limerick, Waterford, Galway, Mayo, Wexford, Dublin, Louth, Wicklow, Meath.
Met Éireann has advised that there is a strong possibility that the status of parts of these counties currently in status orange are likely to change and escalate to status red.
Due to the significant nature of Storm Barra, as forecast by Met Éireann and to give sufficient notice to schools and parents/guardians, the Department is advising that all schools covered by the Red Alert and Orange warning from Met Éireann should not open tomorrow, 7 December.
