What this means

The Urrin at St. Johns Bridge reads 0.71 m as of 18 Oct 2026, 00:00 GMT+1. There is no published reference for this river yet, so we can't say whether that is high or low for the season.

It has barely moved over the past 24 hours. In the last month it has stayed between 0.70 m and 0.89 m.

The agency publishes no normal range for this gauge yet, so we show the trend only. How to read levels

Fishing and paddling

Watch the direction of travel. A rising river after rain behaves very differently from one that is dropping and clearing.

Flood alerts and warnings come from the OPW and Met Éireann.
