Still windy tonight with strong gusts into the West before wind slowly eases Friday.
The colder air has arrived as the sun sets.
Some lightning strikes near Thurles just now with intense rainfall. Also a snow/ice warning issued for tonight as that colder air is moving in showers will turn wintry.
That is one rough morning! It will be a good few hours before it starts to improve too.
Some big seas today and tonight.
Turning much cooler as that main band of rain clears this evening with wintry showers overnight and early Friday along with risk of thunderstorms.
A very windy morning and heavy rain in West and Northwest will move across the country. Winds only slowly easing this evening.
Rainfall warning extended to many more areas
Longer term trends are looking positive at present with temperatures and pressure rising towards end of next week🤞
Wednesday afternoon update with a lot of wind and rain to come tonight and tomorrow and turning cooler. Watch video for latest update.
Windchill forecast for Friday morning is looking fresh. Best of luck to all those trying to conserve the heating oil 🥶
Windy tonight in Northwest but more strong winds early Thursday and more rain Thursday also.
A risk of wintry showers Thursday night
Also a risk of strong winds at weekend but details uncertain yet.
A dull damp start to the week with showers moving East but good sunny spells following into the West this afternoon. Tomorrow Tuesday will turn very wet in the late afternoon and evening. Wednesday will see sunny spells before a wet and very windy Thursday.
Latest airmass forecast shows cooler air likely to move in next week. Bad news for the heating bills given the price increases 😬
Sunshine for some areas today and cloud clearing in parts of East. More cloud moving into the West tonight but could be a sunny Sunday morning in parts of East and Midlands.
Temperatures ranging from -1c in East to 10c in West.
A grand end to a grand day.
High resolution satellite today and spot the snow covered peaks in East and Southeast
For those asking about Cheltenham, it looks OK with main risk of rain Tuesday night into early Wednesday but some uncertainty around Thursday yet

Thursday evening update with March of many weathers. Nice sunny Friday ahead after a frosty and icy start. Watch video for full update.
Good snowfall in Togher Wicklow Mountains
Heavy rain slowly moving East but falling as snow on high ground with lying snow on Wicklow Mountains now. Remember we have frost tonight so risk of icy roads and paths tonight and Friday morning.
You can see the Saharan dust moving up on the latest high resolution satellite image.
Jet Stream strengthening next week and that means risk of storms increases again. Mainly later next week at present but details this far out very uncertain.
That windchill is biting now with no sign of any early Spring heat and with the price of heating oil that will hurt😬
