Met Eireann has forecasted another few days of freezing temperatures for Ireland this week.
The mercury will drop to as low as -1 degree as temperatures will remain in the single digits all week. However, the national forecaster had predicted a dramatic change as low pressure is set to dominate at the start of next week.
After a week of lovely dry weather, Ireland will be lashed with persistent outbreaks of rain with unsettled conditions. Met Eireann's long-range forecast said temperatures will likely be average for this time of the year.
