Live Updates: Storm Bert has made its presence felt across Donegal

Donegal certainly felt the presence of Storm Bert overnight, with much of the county affected by snow. Barnesmore Gap marked a definite change in conditions. While the Gap itself was impassable at times overnight due to heavy snow, anywhere further south was more impacted with the effects of torrential rain than snow and ice.
