FLOODING IS LIKELY in some areas by tomorrow night, as heavy rain is set to continue.
It will be wet and windy all weekend, according to Met Éireann.
Next week isn’t looking that great either – with Monday and Tuesday staying rainy.
Here’s the outlook for today:
A dull, damp and windy day with fresh to strong south to southeast winds. Rain will turn heavy and persistent this morning, with a clearance developing in the west in the early afternoon, extending eastwards and clearing the rain from the east coast by evening.
And tomorrow:
Sunday, will be another wet and windy day with rain turning heavy and persistent again, bringing a risk of flooding by the end of the weekend.
Monday:
The wet and windy weather looks to continue [...]. Fresh to strong southwest winds will bring further showers, heavy at times, on to the west coast, and pushing further to the east of the country during the day.
And so on…
A similar day on Tuesday with further showers but it will become just a tad colder as the winds moderate a little and veer around to the west to northwest later.
What comes after the rain, you ask?
Well…
The further outlook out to next weekend is for a cold snap with sub freezing temperatures at night and slightly below average temperatures for the time of year by day as winds turn to the north.
A perfect weekend for staying in and watching rugby, so… (May we direct you to The42.ie?).

i don’t know why weather is even forecasted here anymore.
Same old shite.
It’s going to rain in Ireland. Must be down to climate change. I’ve never seen 4 days of rain here before. We need some way to tax this terrible rain so it will stop.
Oh wait a minute.
Don’t mention chemtrails because they don’t exist.
Thats handy won’t have to clean the windows this weekend,
It’s going to rain? Really? Wow that’s a shock
Great! Was full sure I was going to have to top up the swimming pool that I didn’t realise I had when I moved house
Ah no,.. And here is me thinking this year was going to be different ..
I’m glad I left this all behind!
You’re not missing much no matter what they say I can assure you.
After you spend a few days in the blistering eternal dry heat of the United Arab Emirates you will bless the cool wet Irish weather.
Rain does not hurt.
We have a great climate.
Hope theres essentially more to enjoy on TV than rugby. Men running grabbing odd shape balls and grabbing one another by the crotch in a scrum
I never understand why people use the word ‘miserable’ to describe rain. It’s only rain. It’s not freezing fog, ice, or 40-degree-80%-humidity, which actually would be something to complain about.
Rain in the winter instead of ice and snow,I can live with that. But rain in the summer. O no no no.
have your say
