A status orange fire warning is in place until Tuesday, as fire brigades throughout the country battled gorse and hay fires.

The Department warned that areas covered in gorse, heather, dried grasses and those associated with turf cutting are most likely to be at risk, and warned the public to remain vigilant.
Thankfully, fire crews were able to contain fires that took place throughout the weekend.
