Just what we wanted to hear.

Met Eireann has issued another snow-ice weather warning, and this time it’s for the entire country.

It has said, “Air temperatures will fall to freezing or below later tonight and early tomorrow morning, with widespread frost and ice on untreated surfaces. Scattered wintry showers also, these mainly in west Ulster, Connacht and west Munster.”

It was issued earlier today and applies from 3am on Tuesday, February 13 until 10am that day.

Meanwhile, a general weather advisory warning remains in place for the whole country with wind and heavy downpours expected between 6pm today until 6am on Tuesday, February 13.

On this, Met Eireann has said:

“A spell of wet and windy weather, with thundery downpours, will sweep eastwards over the country during Monday evening and night. Gusts between 90 and 110km/h will occur in Atlantic, southern and later eastern coastal fringes for a time. Some accumulations of snow are possible during the period also.”
