Aside from some patchy rain overnight, Ireland’s weather will remain largely dry up to and including next Thursday as high pressure continues to stave off Atlantic low pressure systems.
The coldest overnight temperature was recorded in Mullingar, County Westmeath, which saw mercury levels dipping to -2.5c at 7.00am.
Cloud is bubbling up in the west ahead of a weak cold front that will bring scattered outbreaks of light rain and drizzle overnight and into the first half of Saturday.

Saturday will be cloudier than of late, but a clearance will follow from the west later in the day. Much of the eastern half of Ireland will remain dry throughout. Brighter spells everywhere on Sunday.
Daytime temperatures this weekend will range from 9-11c as any overnight frost will be restricted to well-sheltered inland locations. There will be light to gentle west to southwest winds throughout Saturday and Sunday.
The weather will remain largely dry up to and including Thursday after which high pressure will begin to weaken allowing Atlantic low pressure systems to track closer to Ireland by Friday and into next weekend.
