Today

There will be some bright or sunny spells today but a good deal of cloud overall. Scattered showers will feed eastwards across the country in a moderate westerly breeze, the showers most frequent across the northern half of the country. Highest temperatures ranging 11 to 14 degrees.

Tonight

Showers will largely die out early tonight to leave most areas dry with variable cloud amounts. However, later in the night outbreaks of rain will move in from the Atlantic to affect west Connacht and northwest Ulster. Southerly breezes will increase fresh overnight, with gales developing on Atlantic coasts.

Tomorrow

On Saturday morning, rain will spread across most of the western half of the country, turning heavy in parts of the west. Elsewhere, there will be scattered light showers. During the afternoon and evening, rain will extend eastwards to all areas with further heavy falls in the southwest and south bringing a risk of localised flooding there. Mild and windy with highest temperatures of 12 to 15 degrees in strong and gusty southerly winds.
