Let’s face it, we’ve been blessed with a mild winter. However this weekend is set to turn cold with a risk of ice and wintry showers across the country.
According to Met Éireann, tonight will see widespread showers some of which will fall as hail or sleet. Ground frost will develop in parts with snow expected in mountainous areas and icy patches on untreated surfaces.
Lowest temperatures will be between -2 and +2 degrees Celsius and it won’t get much warmer tomorrow as cold conditions are expected to continue.
