A new booklet that is being delivered to every household and business in Co. Monaghan will save lives.
That's according to Met Éireann Forecaster and Monaghan native Gerry Murphy.
The local man was an invited guest at the launch of the initiative this week, which is the first of its kind in the country.

People are asked to look out for the booklet and when it arrives they should read it, keep it in an obvious place, and above all, use it.
The booklet sets out the steps needed to be ready for a range of familiar crises.
Mr. Murphy says overall the information contained within the booklet will save lives and he said he can see other counties following suit.
