A Status Yellow snow and ice warning that was in effect for 11 counties is no longer in place.
Met Éireann had warned of difficult travelling conditions and poor visibility during the warning for Cork, Kerry, Limerick, Tipperary, Waterford, Donegal, Galway, Leitrim, Mayo, Sligo and Wicklow, which expired at 9am this morning.
A Status Yellow wind warning for counties Clare, Kerry and Galway expired at 6am.
Met Éireann had warned that showers may fall as sleet or snow in some areas, with some accumulations possible, mainly on high ground, and that there could be icy stretches on roads and footpaths.
Met Éireann forecaster Siobhán Ryan described the conditions as "routine March weather," and said the temperature would rise a "little bit" over the weekend but "there's still going to be a little edge on it".
Ms Ryan said tomorrow would likely be a better day than Sunday, with "long dry spells" tomorrow and the return of a "wind-chill factor" on Sunday.
She added it would remain changeable into next week, and for St Patrick's Day, "maybe a bit cloudy, not so cold, but probably a spell of rain at some stage".
Beyond that, "there are tentative signs of high pressure building," she said.
Ms Ryan said "anything goes" with St Patrick's Day weather, "it can be dry and sunny, the most you can hope for is temperatures in the high teens at the very, very best".
"But you can also experience temperatures in the low single figures … and I think for this St Patrick's Day it's going to be somewhere in between those," she added.
