Today

A cold, breezy and mostly cloudy day. Scattered outbreaks of rain, turning heavy and persistent at times, especially across the eastern half of the country. Risk of hail and thunder, with some sleet and possible hill-snow. Feeling raw once again, with highs of only 5 to 9 degrees Celsius, in moderate to fresh and gusty northeasterly winds. Whilst the winds will ease later, misty conditions will set-in.

Tonight

Scattered falls of rain overnight with the ongoing risk of local hail and thunder. Long dry spells occurring too, but rather misty, with a sharp frost where skies stay clear. Cold, with lowest temperatures of -3 to +2 degrees Celsius, coldest across Munster. Breezy up along the east coast, but calm generally elsewhere. Heavy rain will move into eastern counties towards morning.

Tomorrow

Outbreaks of rain and local sleet affecting the eastern half of the country early Friday morning, will move into the west into the early afternoon, whilst turning more scattered elsewhere. Eastern counties will likely see some further heavy rain nightfall however. Highs of 8 to 10 degrees Celsius, in sometimes brisk easterly breezes.
