Snow in Met Éireann 'bitterly cold' weather forecast
Met Éireann has forecast weather with snow in a 'bitterly cold' spell in the coming days.
Meteorologist Siobhan Ryan issued the prediction of what to expect in Met Éireann's weekly farming forecast on RTÉ.
"The outlook I'm afraid is for bitterly cold weather for the week ahead (with) mean air temperatures up to 4 degrees below average for this time of year," she said.
She said northerly weather would cause a raw feel on Sunday. She said Monday would also be cold and showers pushing in from the Atlantic would turn wintry as it meets the cold weather on Monday night. Tuesday is likely to be more wintry.
"Tuesday will bring some scattered falls of rain, hail sleet and snow," she said.
The forecaster said there would frosty start to Wednesday and it will be one of the drier days of the week but it will not mark an improvement.
The forecaster said low pressure moving in from the west look like it is going to reach Ireland on Thursday and Friday.
"With that, there will be some falls for rain but as it hits some very cold weather it is likely to turn to sleet and snow also," said Ms Ryan.
