Met Eireann has warned the public of a St Patrick's Day washout as heavy showers are expected.
The forecast predicts that outbreaks of rain and drizzle will affect Dublin this morning. However, these weather conditions will eventually give way to brighter spells by the afternoon.
Drier intervals will follow this evening for the east of the country, although some rainfall should still be expected. Daytime temperatures will hit highs of between 11 to 13 degrees.
