Parts of the country are without power after last night's thunder storms.
A lightning strike set a house on fire in Galway.
Two units of the fire service were called to a home in Barna at around 1.30am this morning.
They spent just over two hours at the scene and brought the fire under control.
Staff with ESB Networks are "very busy" this morning as they deal with the aftermath of the storms.
