A Cold Snap On The Way

Motorists across County Wexford are being advised to prepare for frosty conditions later this week, as temperatures are expected to plunge below freezing in parts of the country.

Met Éireann says a much colder spell is on the way, with Thursday night into Friday morning expected to bring some of the lowest temperatures of the season so far.

While conditions are expected to become drier and brighter from Thursday, overnight frost could make driving conditions hazardous, particularly on untreated rural roads.

Temperatures nationally could fall to minus two degrees on Thursday night, with frost likely in sheltered inland areas.

The cold snap is expected to continue into Saturday before more unsettled weather returns on Sunday.
