We could experience temperatures as high as 12-degrees tomorrow

As far as February mornings go, today was just about as chilly as it gets...

However, the climate is set to change (excuse the pun) dramatically tomorrow, as Ireland gets ready for a weekend weather roller-coaster.

According to Met Eireann the mercury could hit a mild 12-C during the day tomorrow.

However the warmer weather will also bring with it heavy rain in the afternoon and early evening.

So much so, that a Status Yellow rain warning has been issued for Connaght, Cavan, Monaghan and Donegal.

 

And by the time Sunday rolls around, the Met is predicting a combination of rain, hail, sleet, snow and thunder...

Along with chilly daytime temperatures of just 2C to 6C and nighttime lows of -3C. Yikes.

The National Forecaster said: "Sunday will be very cold with sunny spells and wintry showers of rain, hail, sleet and snow with a risk of thunder. Highest temperature of just 2C to 6C with moderate to fresh westerly winds.''

While it also added the slight possibility of more snow early next week...

So... We aren't out of the woods just yet... but at least there's a few (little) signs Summer is lurking on the horizon!
