It's a wet and miserable morning in Dublin and it's going to stay that way for the weekend with Met Eireann predicting heavy showers and a chance of localised flooing.
Saturday will be cloudy and wet, with rain slowly clearing northeastwards through the afternoon. And it will be a bit colder than recent days with highs of between 15 and 16C.
It will become very wet tonight with forecasters adding there is also a chance of strong winds which will arrive with more persistent rain. That rain could turn heavy with the possibility of flooding.
