Met Eireann has issued its verdict on Ireland's weather for February, warning of a bitter Arctic freeze with subzero temperatures and widespread frost.
Met Eireann has issued its verdict on the likelihood of snow in Ireland this February, and unfortunately for snow lovers, it's not looking promising.
High pressure is currently dominating our weather, which typically leads to clear skies, light winds and the cooling of the atmosphere, which causes temperatures to dip, particularly at night. But it also helps keep the weather generally settled, meaning little to no rain and calm, bright conditions over the coming days.
Yesterday, Met Eireann updated its long-range forecast for all of February, giving a week-by-week breakdown of potential weather patterns. For those hoping for snow, the news is disappointing. Despite the colder-than-average temperatures expected in the coming week, Met Eireann’s forecast for February does not indicate any snowfall. Instead, temperatures are expected to rise to average or slightly above-average levels by mid-month, putting a dampener on hopes for flurries in the weeks ahead.
