Ireland will be battered by more rain as Met Eireann has forecasted further unsettled weather.
Things are looking grim for St Patrick's Day with heavy and prolonged showers bringing a risk of thunderstorms. But it's not all bad news as the temperatures will be above average for this time of the year.
Today will start off mostly wet and cloudy with outbreaks of rain which will clear northeastward through the morning. Sunny spells will follow with scattered showers, some of which could turn heavy with possible thunderstorms in the late afternoon and evening.
