Met Eireann has warned there will be high pollen levels in the capital today.

Maximum temperatures during the day will generally range between 11 and 13 degrees with a fresh northerly breeze developing. The evening will have temperatures as low as 3 degrees in a moderate to fresh northerly breeze.

Met Eireann has also said: "The overnight rain will clear on Monday morning to leave a bright and fresh day with sunny spells and just a few showers. A cool day for late April with highest temperatures of 9 to 11 degrees in fresh northerly winds."

According to the forecaster, pollen levels in Dublin will be low on Monday.

While there is no further forecast for Dublin, here is Met Eireann's national outlook for the coming days:

Monday night

"Any evening showers will clear on Monday night to leave it cold and mostly clear. A fairly widespread frost is forecast with minimum temperatures generally ranging -3 to +2 degrees in a mostly light northeast breeze.

Tuesday

"Cold and dry to start on Tuesday with good spells of sunshine during the morning. The afternoon will bring a mix of cloud and bright spells for many areas whilst thicker cloud pushes in across Munster.

"Patchy rain or drizzle will then develop across Munster during the evening with largely dry conditions elsewhere. Maximum temperatures of 8 to 11 degrees with a moderate southeast breeze developing.

"Tuesday night will be cloudy with scattered patches of rain or drizzle extending northwards to many areas. Lowest temperatures of 3 to 6 degrees, occurring across the north of the country early on with light to moderate southeast winds.

Wednesday

"It looks set to be a rather cloudy day on Wednesday with lots of dry weather along with a little patchy rain in places. Maximum temperatures will generally range 10 to 14 degrees in a moderate southeast breeze, warmest in the south. Varying amounts of cloud on Wednesday night with a few light showers. Lowest temperatures of 5 to 8 degrees in moderate easterly breezes.

Thursday

"Outbreaks of rain will develop in the south on Thursday morning whilst it will remain largely dry further north. Later in the day, outbreaks of rain will extend further north but some parts of Ulster are likely to stay dry.

"Highest temperatures of 12 to 15 degrees in moderate to fresh southeast winds. Cloudy overnight with patchy rain. Lowest temperatures of 7 to 10 degrees in a moderate easterly breeze.

Further Outlook
