Met Eireann has forecasted brutal conditions this week as a low-pressure system will dominate Ireland.
Although a potential storm that was brewing in the Atlantic will stay well south of Ireland, the national forecaster has predicted storm-like weather over the next few days.
Today will start off dull, damp, and breezy with a band of more persistent rain that will move up from the southwest in the morning. Sunny spells will develop in the afternoon but thundery showers will follow too, with possible spot flooding and isolated thunderstorms. It will be a mild day with the highest temperatures of 13 to 15 degrees.

Tonight will be mostly dry and clear as the last of the showers ease. The lowest temperatures will be around 7 to 10 degrees.
Thursday will bring sunny spells and scattered showers, locally heavy or thundery. The highest temperatures will be around 13 to 15 degrees.
Met Eireann said the rest of the week will stay unsettled and turned cooled but with drier conditions forecasted for Sunday and Monday. There is no further forecast for Dublin and here's what the national outlook says:
Thursday night
"Outbreaks of rain will spread northwards overnight, heaviest and most persistent in southern counties. Lowest temperatures of 6 to 9 degrees in variable winds, fresh to strong at times near coasts.
Friday
"Cloudy or dull with outbreaks of rain, driest early on in the north and later brightening up in the west but with some heavy showers possible too. Highest temperatures of 10 to 13 degrees, in mostly moderate northwesterly winds."
