Friday Night:

• Polar Air is pushing over Ireland today making temperatures drop and making it feel colder. Temperatures overnight will drop down to around freezing to 3 degrees around the county.
• Showers will push in overnight and some will turn wintry with a chance of snow for lower ground as well as higher ground.
• Snow Accumulations possible over higher ground by morning.

Saturday:

• Wintry showers continuing tomorrow, Saturday and becoming more persistent throughout the day and accumulations possible in many parts. This is because Saturdays temperatures will struggle to rise above 3-5 degrees.
• Saturday night will again drop down to freezing and some parts dropping to -2 degrees. This will lead to icy patches and frost.

• Sunday will be much of the same with scattered showers and some of these wintry especially on higher ground.
• A bit warmer with temperatures in parts of Cork maybe reaching 7-8 near coasts and 4-5 inland.
• Sunday night will be mostly dry with a sharp frost and icy conditions expected as temperatures will drop below freezing.
