Ireland could see its first named storm of the year later this week as a brutal weather system sweeps in from the Atlantic.
Weather maps show the risk of a low-pressure system tracking close to the south coast on Thursday night, which could bring strong winds and heavy rain.
While subject to change this far out, Met Eireann says: “Current projections show a mild showery day on Thursday, followed by more widespread rain on Thursday night into Friday with the potential for strong winds in parts.”
