Possible Snow & Ice warnings – Temperatures To Fall To -4°C

Met Éireann have issued snow and ice warnings as temperatures set to fall to -4°C.

Snowfall last year in January on Kickham Street.

Temperatures are forecast to drop to around -4°C in parts of the country over the coming weekend, as Met Éireann issues a series of Status Yellow warnings for snow, ice and low temperatures.
Forecasters have warned of hazardous travel conditions and poor visibility, with frost and icy stretches also expected.

The first warning comes into effect at 8:00pm tonight (Friday, January 2nd), with a Status Yellow snow and ice warning for Donegal in place until 11:00am on Saturday, January 3rd, as wintry showers bring the risk of snow accumulations.
Further snow/ice warnings are due to extend across northern and western areas from Saturday evening into Sunday morning, while Tipperary and much of the rest of the country will be covered by low temperature and ice warnings over the same period.
