Hurricane Oscar to miss Carlow but 'other systems' next weekend could bring stormy weather

For those worried about the remnants of Hurricane Oscar, forecaster Alan O'Reilly has said that the models show its center staying out Northwest of Ireland but "still a wet and windy Saturday is likely with much milder weather too".

However, he added that "other systems may arrive next weekend that could bring stormy weather". 

There was a low of -2.8c at a weather station in Carlow on Monday night as the cold snap continued, according to www.carlowweather.com. 

The latest information shows a chance of some showers on Halloween evening for trick or treat time on Wednesday evening.
