People across Ireland will be soaking up the last of the sunshine today before the weather takes a turn for the worse.
Friday is set to be dry with "spells of sunshine" in the morning but cloud will increase across Leinster, Munster and Connacht during the day with some showers possible, especially during the evening.
And over the weekend, the forecast is set to make a dramatic U-turn, with cloud, rain and an icy chill arriving. According to Met Eireann, temperatures will plunge in the coming days and could drop to below zero on Monday night with frost arriving overnight.
