Highest temperatures of 3 to 7 degrees but feeling colder in strong and gusty westerly winds.

A combination of Spring Tides, strong onshore winds and high seas will result in a risk of coastal flooding along the Atlantic seaboard, especially around high tide.

Tonight

Wintry showers will continue for a time overnight but will tend to become confined to western and northern counties later in the night and turn increasingly to rain and hail.

Frost and ice forming in many areas as the strong west to southwest breeze begins to moderate.

Lowest temperatures of -1 to +2 degrees.

Status Yellow - Snow/Ice warning for Ireland

Widespread wintry showers on Monday and Tuesday with some snowfall accumulations, especially in the west and north. Some disruption to travel is possible, particularly over higher routes.

Valid until midnight.

Status Yellow - Wind warning for Donegal, Galway, Leitrim, Mayo, Sligo, Clare and Kerry

Strong westerly winds continuing with mean speeds of 50 to 65km/h and gusts to 110km/h, highest in coastal areas.

A combination of Spring Tides and high seas will result in a risk of coastal flooding, especially around high tide.

Valid until 8pm.
