Warnings possible as Met Eireann weather update confirms first major cold snap of 2024
Met Eireann has confirmed the country will experience the first major cold snap of 2024 in the coming days with subzero temperatures setting in.
Forecasters say Ireland will experience "a respite from the recent wet and windy weather as high pressure builds from the Azores over the weekend and becomes established over Ireland into next week, bringing cold, clear and generally calm conditions with little precipitation."
Met Éireann meteorologist Liz Coleman explained: “It’s going to feel much colder than it has recently, with daytime temperatures in the low single figures and nighttime temperatures falling below zero in most areas.
"Widespread frost is expected with some ice, although generally dry conditions will limit ice formation to mainly areas of standing water or run off. Nevertheless, do take care while out and about.
"While it will be cold, it will be mainly dry with sunny spells as the high pressure will prevent any significant rainfall."
