Statement – Athlone Town Council
River Shannon, Athlone, County Westmeath, Thursday 6th February 2014
The level of the River Shannon in Athlone remains high but is stabilising. Fortunately for Athlone, the most intense rainfall over the last two days was in the southern half of the country, reducing the pressure on the upper Shannon. Taking the weather forecast into account, the Council is expecting river levels to stabilise in or around current levels over the next 5 days.
However, the situation will be kept under constant review and a further update will issue if the situation changes significantly.
