April showers could well bring May flowers if Met Eireann's 30-day forecast is anything to go by - but there is good news for anyone afraid of more 'hazardous' weather.
The last week of March saw rain, hail and snow fall across the island, with temperatures dropping as low as -5C in parts, having hit highs of 18C just a fortnight ago.
And though Met Éireann has confirmed that the cold snap will take a short break this weekend, it seems that things are going to be wet as we head towards Easter weekend.
