It's been a wet and windy ending to Christmas with questions now surrounding how things will be until the end of 2022.
With many making their plans for New Year's Eve the weather is going to come into play. We've had a lot of rain today and there's been a chill in the wind and it looks like there's plenty more to come.
Met Eireann is saying that over the next few days it's going to get colder as 2023 arrives. Prepare for plenty more rain and wind if you're heading out and about with family and friends.
