Temperatures are expected to drop as winter enters, and snow on elevated terrain is possible before the end of the week.
While the mercury will remain at highs of 10 ° C and 12 ° C on Monday and Tuesday, a cold front will set in overnight and Wednesday onwards will see wintry weather, with frost and highs of four and five degrees on Thursday.
Monday will be a “gloomy, cloudy and rainy” day with light breezes and bouts of rain, however, it will remain mild between six and nine degrees, and Tuesday will be about the same.
“Gloomy, cloudy, drizzle, a bit mild, rainy and humid day,” Met forecaster Éireann Gavin Gallagher said of Monday’s weather.
“End of fall, what are you waiting for, really. Tuesday will be about the same, but a little better, as there will be less drizzle and temperatures will be 10 ° C or 11 ° C, a good day. “
However, as the meteorological winter begins on December 1, conditions will turn winter on Wednesday when a cold front arrives overnight.
“On Wednesday morning we will wake up to a different kind of weather and a different day.”
The fog will have cleared but it will be much cooler and cooler, with heavier rains worsening in the Northwest counties and along the Atlantic coast in the afternoon.
Starting Wednesday night, it will be cold enough for some showers to turn winter over high ground, and snow will become a possibility in mountainous and mountainous areas.
“It’s the first period of time that it’s cold enough for us to realize it’s getting pretty wintry,” Gallagher said.
Thursday will see the cold snap begin with highs of 4 ° C or 5 ° C maximum, with a breeze from the north.
“It will be cold and it will continue throughout the weekend and possibly the first days of next week,” he added.
