Met Éireann has issued a bleak weather forecast for the bank holiday weekend with washout conditions for Easter Monday.
While Friday and Saturday will remain mostly dry with some spells of hazy sunshine, and the occasional shower, it will then take a turn for the worse.
Rain is due to arrive on Easter Sunday afternoon with outbreaks of rain and drizzle covering the whole country by the evening, with the heaviest showers in west and southwest counties.
