Summary
Firefighters in Co Tipperary are in a six-day battle against a stubborn blaze on Slievenamon mountain, with flare-ups forcing relentless efforts. A shift in weather — cooler temps, cloud cover, and fog — is offering some relief, prompting renewed aerial and ground support. Residents are urged to stay away, especially those downwind, and to keep windows and doors shut if smoke is visible. Extra caution is advised for the elderly, children, pregnant women, and anyone with breathing or heart conditions — and farmers are being asked to monitor and relocate livestock. While no homes are currently at risk, officials stress avoiding non-essential travel to keep emergency routes clear as the situation remains active and evolving.
