Aoife Kealy is a meteorologist with Met Eireann, and outlines what conditions could be like:
“Along South and East Coast most will fall as rain and sleet but there will be some localised snowfall is parts of Dublin, now mostly that will be in the Mountains, and much of it will fall as rain and sleet.”
But, with temperatures set to hover at freezing over the coming days, it’s unclear how long this cold snap will persist.
