Brilliant…
After a fairly decent start to October weather wise, things have been getting progressively worse over the past few days.
And it seems it'll be a whole lot worse next week, with Met Éireann suggesting that the remnants of Hurricane Epsilon, which passed by Bermuda in the Atlantic Ocean on Thursday night, will ''impact'' on Ireland mid-week. Brilliant.
The national forecaster wrote: ''The remnants of Hurricane Epsilon will impact upon our shores during the midweek period''.
What can we expect exactly? Well scattered blustery heavy showers are expected on Tuesday, along with fresh to strong and gusty southerly winds.
Things will get wet and very windy or stormy after dark, with strong to gale force and gusty south to southwest winds.
And the rain will turn thundery at times with the risk of hail... which all sounds pretty terrible.
Meanwhile there are three sperate weather warnings in place for eight counties around Ireland from 9pm tonight (Friday) until 10am on Saturday morning, with those counties being – Donegal, Mayo, Galway, Clare, Kerry, Cork, Waterford and Wexford – and conditions will be very wet and windy in general.
