Rainfall will turn wintry in certain areas as chilly temperatures persist over the coming days
The lingering effects of winter continue to be felt as a "cold and breezy" week is in store for Ireland, with snow forecast for some areas over the coming days.
This morning, Monday February 10, may see higher ground in the counties of Dublin and Wicklow experience the greatest risk of precipitation falling as snow or sleet. A spokesperson for Met Eireann said: "Today will be cold, dull and breezy. Patchy outbreaks of rain and drizzle will occur, especially across eastern counties, turning wintry over the Dublin and Wicklow Mountains later. Highest temperatures of 4 to 7 degrees with an added wind chill factor, owing to a rather brisk east to northeast wind.
"Some bright or sunny spells at first on Tuesday with any frost and ice clearing. However, it will be mostly cloudy with patchy falls of rain and drizzle, especially across east and southeast counties with just minimal amounts elsewhere. Later in the day, more general rain will arrive into southwest counties, possibly turning wintry over higher ground here after dark. Rather cold with highest temperatures of 5 to 7 degrees in a light to moderate easterly breeze.
