Not even close…
While there was speculation over the past week that we may once again experience snow in this country on Easter weekend, but it looks like that won’t be the case according to the latest forecast from Met Éireann.
Thursday will be wet. Let’s just be blunt about it. Rain will gradually extend northwards during Thursday morning, but there’s the promise that it will clear somewhat in the afternoon leaving dry weather.
Good Friday will bring with it sunny spells and showers, with temperatures of 7 to 9 degrees with moderate east to northeast breezes.
Friday night will be cold however, with frost in many places, particularly in the west.
Saturday will be… you guessed it, sunny spells and showers once again, but the good news for three quarters of the country is, they’ll be mainly confined to the east. The good news for the east… they’ll be lighter than previous days.
Every rain-filled cloud has a silver lining.
But that’s basically the end of the good news, Easter Sunday will start off dry. However, rain will spread from the southwest later and will extend to all areas. If you’re venturing out you’ll need a jacket, an umbrella or some thick skin. Potentially all three.
Easter Monday will be milder with sunshine and showers. Highest temperatures of 12 or 13 degrees with moderate southerly breezes.
