Forest Fire Warning Issued in Dublin

The Forest Service has issued a ‘Status Orange’ fire warning on the back of Easterly High-Pressure conditions and forecast high temperatures.

A High Fire Risk exists in all areas where hazardous fuels such as gorse, heather, dried grasses and other dead vegetation exist.

The Forest Service has said that the projected meteorological fire risk is likely to be further compounded by additional ignition risks arising from the forthcoming Easter Bank Holiday Weekend.
