Overview
Leinster
Today
It'll be largely dry and bright this afternoon and evening, with some sunny spells. There'll be more in the way of cloud around in the evening as scattered showers spread from the west, easing as they do and becoming isolated. Southwest winds increasing moderate to fresh later, veering northwesterly and gradually easing mostly light or moderate in the evening.
Tonight
Any remaining isolated showers will die away early on, to leave a mainly dry, clear night. Lowest temperatures of -1 to +3 degrees and with winds easing light and variable, some frost and ice will form. The odd patch of mist is possible.
Tomorrow
Tomorrow, Tuesday, will be a dry, sunny day. After a cold frosty start, afternoon temperatures will rise to between 9 and 12 degrees in light to moderate variable, mainly east or southeasterly, breezes.
National
Today
Staying largely dry with clear spells this evening as any isolated showers ease in light to moderate northwest winds.
Tonight
Clear skies for most tonight. It'll be mainly dry apart from the odd shower possible in the northwest. Lowest temperatures of -2 to +2 degrees and with west to north-west winds easing light and variable, some frost and ice will form. A few patches of mist will develop too.
Tomorrow
Tuesday will be dry and sunny to begin. Cloudier conditions will develop near the south coast by the afternoon, gradually extending northwards over parts of Munster and south Leinster as the day goes on, with patchy light rain and drizzle developing in these parts towards evening. After a cold and frosty start, afternoon temperatures will rise to between 9 and 12 degrees in light to moderate easterly or variable breezes.
Outlook
Overview: While there'll still be some showers or rain this week, most widespread on Thursday, with a weather front breaking through, Ireland will generally be under the influence of high pressure for much of the week, which means we'll have a good lot of dry weather overall. Temperatures will be around average to a little above for early Spring, with some pleasant spells of sunshine at times, though there'll be frost on some of the nights. Tuesday night: Dry with mostly clear skies at first on Tuesday night with frost becoming fairly widespread for a time. Low cloud will push up from the south overnight, along with mist and fog and possibly a few spots of light rain or drizzle. Lowest temperatures early in the night of 0 to 5 degrees, with the highest values along southern and eastern coasts, in mostly light to moderate southeasterly breezes. Wednesday: There'll be some bright or sunny spells on Wednesday, but in general there's likely to be a good lot of cloud around. While there'll be a lot of dry weather overall, there'll be a little patchy drizzle, along with some mist and fog for a time too, mainly in the south and east, and a few isolated showers are likely to break out later on too in other areas. Highest temperatures of 10 to 14 degrees and becoming breezy through the day with southerly winds increasing moderate to fresh. Wednesday night: A good lot of dry weather to begin the night with a mix of cloud and clear spells, though there'll be a few scattered showers along with some areas of mist and fog. Cloud will thicken from the west overnight, with rain spreading eastwards to most areas. Lowest temperatures of 4 to 8 degrees, in moderate, occasionally fresh, southerly winds, veering westerly later in the night in western areas. Thursday: Cloudy on Thursday morning with outbreaks of rain and drizzle continuing to spread eastwards to all areas. A clearance to mainly dry and brighter weather will push into western areas by the early afternoon, with the clearance slowly extending eastwards to most areas through the rest of the day. Highest temperatures of 8 to 11 degrees in moderate, occasionally fresh, winds becoming mostly north-westerly and easing later. Thursday night: Mainly dry with clear spells. Cold with lowest temperatures of -2 to +2 degrees with some frost and icy patches. Friday: It looks like Friday will be mostly dry with some spells of sunshine. Highest temperatures of 8 to 12 degrees. Next weekend: It looks like high pressure will remain the most dominant influence on our weather through the weekend, so a lot of dry weather is expected overall, with some spells of sunshine, though some showers or rain are possible later in the weekend.
