Fermanagh is facing unexpected high winds as Storm Ali batters the county.
In Enniskillen, many local businesses have been forced to close due to a lack of power. The strong gales have caused damage to buildings as roof tiles and other debris litter East Bridge Street, resulting in the closure of the road.
A spokeswoman from the PSNI stated: “Police are advising motorists and pedestrians that East Bridge Street in Enniskillen has been closed, due to falling roof tiles. A police cordon is in place and for safety reasons, officers are advising the public not to cross it.”
As the storm continues to wreak havoc on the county, reports of fallen trees are rife. The PSNI have confirmed that the A4 road, Enniskillen is closed between Tamlaght and the Killyhevlin Hotel due to a fallen tree. Diversions have been put in place.
The PSNI are advising motorists to seek alternative routes.
