Latest Rainfall Radar showing live precipitation and the last 90 minutes precipitation over Ireland, updated every 5 minutes. Precipitation can be rain, hail or snow. Accumulations can refer to rainfall only.
Lightning strikes, when they occur, are displayed as a cross. Initially, they are red but change to orange and then yellow after a period, then disappear © Met Office ATDNet.
Ground Clutter may appear (South Co. Dublin), bright bands and spokes may also be present in images. They are artefacts (false echoes) of rainfall radar systems and should be ignored. Further information on Radar here
Met Éireann forecasters manually produce the weather icons for midday and midnight to reflect the predicted major weather type for these times.
The rainfall forecast is direct model output from Numerical Weather Prediction models but is a guideline only. Rain refers to precipitation, which can be rain, sleet or snow. It forecasts how much rain will fall (in mm) hourly during the previous hour (accumulations), then in 3 hourly and finally 6 hourly accumulations up to 7 days. This service is based on data and products of the HARMONIE-AROME and the European Centre for Medium-range Weather Forecasts (ECMWF) models.
The wind is direct model output from Numerical Weather Prediction models but is a guideline only. It forecasts the strength of the wind (in knots and km/h) at 10m for the top of each hour, in hourly, then 3 hourly and finally 6 hourly intervals up to 7 days. The wind arrow tip points in the direction the wind is blowing and the tail length indicates wind strength. However, in the text forecast below, it is described as where it is blowing from. This service is based on data and products of the HARMONIE-AROME and the European Centre for Medium-range Weather Forecasts (ECMWF) models.
The temperature is direct model output from Numerical Weather Prediction models but is a guideline only. It forecasts air temperature on land and over sea in °C for the top of each hour, 3 hourly and finally 6 hourly intervals up to 7 days. Minus zero (-0) indicates values between 0 to -0.5°C. This service is based on data and products of the HARMONIE-AROME and the European Centre for Medium-range Weather Forecasts (ECMWF) models.
The Mean Sea Level Pressure (MSLP) is direct model output from Numerical Weather Prediction models but is a guideline only. It forecasts the MSLP in hecto Pascals (hPa) for the top of that hour initially in 3 hourly intervals, then 6 hourly. This service is based on data and products of the HARMONIE-AROME and the European Centre for Medium-range Weather Forecasts (ECMWF) models.

Today
Mainly dry today, with warm spells of hazy sunshine. A little cloudier at times, especially in the parts of east and north, where there's a chance of mist or the odd spot of drizzle. Highest temperatures of 17 to 22 degrees generally, warmest in the west and mid-west, but a little cooler near eastern and some southern and northern coasts due to a light to moderate easterly breeze, with those winds likely a little fresher along southwestern coastal parts.
Tonight
Dry for most tonight with a mix of cloud and clear spells. It'll become a bit cloudier in the far southwest overnight, with the odd spot of drizzle possible there towards morning. There's also the chance of an odd shower in the east. Lowest temperatures of 9 to 12 degrees in light to moderate easterly or variable breezes with a few mist patches possible.
Tomorrow
Dry in many areas tomorrow, Monday, with spells of hazy sunshine in the east and north for a time. Cloudier conditions in the west and south, accompanied by patchy light rain and drizzle, will gradually extend northeastwards over the country through the morning and afternoon. It will brighten up from the southwest later, though. Highest temperatures of 15 to 20 degrees, warmest across the midlands and east, in light to moderate mainly east to southeasterly or variable breezes, gradually veering southwesterly for most. Occasional hill and coastal mist will affect parts of the south and west.
