Cork has once again fallen foul of rising tides as parts of the city centre have begun to flood.
The city council issued a tidal flood alert for 9.04am this morning.
At high tide in #Cork. Water on streets along the quays; otherwise no significant flooding. Whatever comes now is down to surge. @rtenews pic.twitter.com/1pv0gPIWJe

Some water beginning to spill onto the streets in #Cork. But, despite #flood warnings, people continue to park on the quays. @rtenews pic.twitter.com/VZIPLOykcf

Cork wasn't the only place to get hammered with rising waters, check out this video from Clontarf this afternoon.
Outside of the city, rising water levels have led to road coverage in Middleton.
