Dublin weather: Met Eireann forecast much milder temperatures but warn rain and fog are on the way

Met Eireann have forecast a much milder week ahead as the country bids farewell to the sub-zero temperatures we experienced over the past week.

However, it's not all good news because fog and rain are set to hit Dublin and the rest of the country over the coming days. Today, it will be "dull and misty" in the capital with rain clearing later this afternoon or this evening and highest temperatures of 8 or 9 degrees.

Tonight will be mostly dry with a few clear spells and lowest temperatures of 1 to 3 degrees. Winds will be light southerly or variable, allowing fog to thicken and possibly become widespread.

Tomorrow, will be rather dull with fog lingering in the morning across Dublin. There'll be patchy rain on coasts with sunny spells too and highest temperatures of 8 to 10 degrees in mostly light southerly or variable breezes.

While there is no further forecast for Dublin, here is what Met Eireann's National Outlook says:

Tuesday

"Further spells of rain drizzle and fog on Tuesday. Highest temperatures of 9 to 11 degrees in mostly light to moderate southwesterly winds, fresher in the northwest.

Wednesday

"On Wednesday rain in the north and west will gradually track southeastwards through the morning and early afternoon with some sunny spells and showers following. Highest temperatures of 8 to 11 degrees, turning colder as the rain clears and light southerly winds veer northwesterly.

Thursday

"Thursday will feel colder with a northerly wind developing and Thursday night will be very cold and clear with temperatures well below freezing."
