Motorists had a tricky time navigating the flood water on Tuesday

All homes left without power after Storm Chandra have now been reconnected, Northern Ireland Electricity has said.

Warnings for heavy rain, flooding and strong wind have ended but a yellow warning for ice is in force until 10:00 GMT.

Thousands were left without power and more than 350 schools closed on Tuesday as the storm caused widespread disruption.

Katesbridge in County Down recorded its wettest ever day with 100.8mm of rain falling in 24 hours, previously the most it had seen in a single day was 70.7mm in August 1986.

Clear-up underway

At the height of the storm thousands of homes were without power, but by early Wednesday morning all had been reconnected.

A number of roads remain closed including sections of the A51 Armagh Road in Tandragee, the Blaris Road in Lisburn and the Hilltown Road near Newry.

Most departures from Belfast City Airport were cancelled on Tuesday but all are set to operate as scheduled on Wednesday.

The Strangford Ferry is also running again after being suspended for much of Tuesday.

Semi-final chaos because of Storm Chandra

The BetMcLean Cup semi-final between Glentoran and Coleraine at the Oval has been postponed due to damage and flooding caused by Storm Chandra.

The tie was set to be played in east Belfast on Wednesday evening but heavy rain and wind has made the pitch unplayable.

It has been rearranged for Tuesday but if the game can still not be played, then it will be moved to the Coleraine Showgrounds the following day.

The second BetMcLean Cup semi-final, between Linfield and Ballymena United at Windsor Park, was moved from Tuesday to Wednesday because of weather warnings from Storm Chadndra.

How did Storm Chandra get its name?

Chandra was named by the Met Office.

It is the third major storm to hit the UK in January after Goretti and Ingrid, which caused significant damage and disruption.

The list of storm names is announced on 1 September each year and runs in alphabetical order.

The season started with Amy in October, followed by Bram in early December 2025.

Republic of Ireland

In the Republic of Ireland, Enniscorthy town was badly hit, with about 30 homes and 20 businesses affected.

UPDATE: The electricity provider ESB said on Tuesday afternoon that about 5,500 homes, farms and businesses were without power, down from a peak of 30,000.

A car submerged by floodwater in Enniscorthy, County Wexford, Ireland.

Dublin Fire Brigade said it responded to a number of flooding and water rescue incidents – with motorists taken to safety after they became trapped in floods.

Multiple road and school closures were reported in County Wexford due to the river Slaney bursting its banks.
