Sunday

Sunday will see nice spring sunshine again for many with the northwest, west and southwest most pleasent. Across the eastern half of Ireland there will be a risk of some cloud in the mix during the afternoon and with the risk of of a odd isolated shower. Again temperatures only between 7C to 10C.

Some cloud developing on Sunday night but some clear spells also with the risk of some frost again mainly across western areas with lows of around -1C and highs of 3C

Next Week

Monday at present looks like it will be another mostly dry day away from southern and western coastal counties were there will be a risk of some showers. The day looks mainly cloudy with best chance of sunny spells in the northwest of Ireland.

For the rest of the week we have a battle ground between colder air to the northeast and east and milder unsettled weather to the west of soutwest. Some weak weather fronts possibly moving into western and southern areas next week at times with drier condations possible across northern and eastern areas. There is a potential for a weather front to move through at some stage later next week or next weekend and running into that colder air and turning wintry across the country but details at this stage are uncertain so stay tuned. Don't be surprised if we see some snowfall just before St Patrick's day. Just for a example the below chart shows a weather front moving into the colder air across Ireland on the 11th of March turning to snow. This was from this mornings Ecmwf weather model run but is not certain to happen.
