[Tuesday night]
Cold tonight with clear periods and scattered heavy showers with a slight risk thunder near some eastern coasts. Overnight lows of 1 to 4 degrees with patches of fog and frost developing but clearing gradually during Wednesday morning. Many places will be bright on Wednesday with sunny spells and just scattered showers but cloudier and breezy through western counties with showery rain especially in coastal counties.
Outlook
HEADLINE : Unsettled and changeable weather continuing for the rest of the week and over the weekend. On Wednesday night, there will be further outbreaks of showery rain in parts of Ulster and Connacht, especially near Atlantic coasts, but most other areas will be dry, with clear spells. Cold. Min. 2 to 5 Celsius, leading to a slight grass frost in places. Winds mostly light to moderate southwesterly, slackest in Munster and south Leinster, with a risk of fog.
Thursday will be mostly cloudy in eastern coastal areas, with occasional rain and with a risk of the odd heavy burst. Winds here mostly light to moderate northeast or variable. Over the rest of the country, winds will be light to moderate westerly or variable and it will be brighter and mainly dry, with sunny spells and just a few scattered showers. Max. 9 to 11 Celsius. Cold overnight, with some grass frost.
On Friday, it will become milder. Eastern areas will be mainly dry, but rain will spread from the Atlantic, accompanied by strong southerly winds and gales at sea. The weekend will be mild, but unsettled, with further spells of wet and windy weather at times.
