The rest of the country will enjoy “good dry periods” on Sunday but showers or longer spells of rain will move through at times. It will remain windy overnight with scattered showers across the country.
Met Éireann meteorologist Aoife Kealy said: “It’ll stay unsettled on Sunday with some heavy showers or longer spells of rain around – and it’ll be a windy day too which could blow away a few witch’s hats!”
The forecaster said next week will feel chillier with more seasonal temperatures of around 8 to 10 degrees Celsius. The chance of frost will increase as temperatures overnight begin to fall close to freezing.
