Two women had to be rescued from floods after heavy rain fell across parts of Northern Ireland on Tuesday night. | |
The worst affected areas were in Omagh, County Tyrone, and in Moneymore and Magherafelt, County Londonderry. | |
The Fire and Rescue Service said it received 33 calls from those areas in the six hours until midnight. | |
In Magherafelt, a woman was rescued from her car and another from her home. However, no houses or buildings were badly flooded. | |
The grounds of Letterkenny General Hospital in County Donegal was also flooded. | |
