Dublin Fire Brigade Responds to Multiple Incidents Amid Storm Eowyn
Dublin Fire Brigade has been working tirelessly in response to the red weather warning issued for Storm Eowyn, which has caused chaos across the city. One of the most significant incidents occurred on Harold’s Cross Road, near Mt Jerome Cemetery, where scaffolding surrounding a building collapsed, blocking the road and leaving the building exposed to the elements.
Chaos Unfolds Across Dublin
The collapse of the scaffolding prompted Dolphin’s Barn firefighters to rush to the scene, where they found the road completely blocked. The situation was further exacerbated by downed trees in various locations, including Killininny Road in Tallaght and near St Vincent’s Hospital. In Kilbarrack, underground wires were exposed after a tree fell, requiring assistance from ESB Networks.

Despite the challenging conditions, Dublin Fire Brigade managed to clear one side of Killininny Road to ensure safe passage for road users.
