The cold snap is here to stay as Met Eireann has forecasted another week of freezing temperatures.
Dubliners will have to bundle up warm as the mercury is set to drop to as low as -2 degrees on some nights. Many of us will wake up to frost as this morning will start off cold.
Thankfully, it'll be a mostly dry day with some lovely spells of sunshine, especially during the morning and early afternoon with temperatures of around 7 to 9 degrees.

Tonight will be largely dry, but there will be a good deal of cloud and maybe the odd light rain or drizzle. Temperatures will range from 2 to 5 degrees.
Tomorrow will be a mostly dry day with a mix of cloud and some bright or sunny spells. A few light showers are expected to come in from the north and the highest temperatures will be around 9 to 11 degrees.
There is no further forecast for Dublin but here's what the national outlook says:
Friday night
A Met Eireann forecaster said: "It looks set to be largely dry on Friday night with long clear spells developing. A cold night with temperatures falling back to between -2 and +3 degrees with the chance of some frost. A light to moderate northeast breeze will develop.
Saturday
"Most of the country will be dry on Saturday, but it will feel rather chilly in a moderate northeast breeze. Cloud will move in across eastern and southern areas at times with the best chance of sunshine in the west and north of the country.
"Maximum temperatures of 6 to 9 degrees, coldest along Irish Sea coasts. Cold and dry on Friday night with cloudy skies across parts of the east and south. However, there will be good clear spells elsewhere and that will allow some frost to form. Minimum temperatures ranging -2 to +3 degrees, coldest in Connacht and west Ulster.
Sunday
"Any frost will clear on Sunday morning to leave a dry day with a mix of cloud and bright spells. Highest temperatures of 5 to 8 degrees in a moderate east or southeast breeze, fresh along southern and southeastern coasts. Staying dry on Sunday night.
"Temperatures will fall back generally to between -1 and +2 degrees, but it will be somewhat less cold along eastern and southern coasts in a moderate southeast breeze".
