Clare Escapes The Brunt Of Storm Debi - Though Hundreds Remain Without Power

Five thousand homes and businesses across Clare were left without power earlier today, as strong winds and heavy rain battered the county. ESB Crews have since restored supply to the vast majority of those, but hundreds hace yet to be connected. ESB Networks Area Manager, Ed Hunt has been telling Clare FM's Fiona Cahill that a lot of progress has been made, but flooding is hampering the operation in some areas.
