Ploughing Championships weather: Met Éireann forecasting mixed bag as thousands descent on Ratheniska

It could be a case of four seasons in one day for those travelling to the National Ploughing Championships next week with Met Éireann forecasting sunny spells, rain, drizzle and breezy conditions.

The National Ploughing Championships take place in Ratheniska, Co Laois from Tuesday, September 20 to Thursday, September 22 and attendees will want the umbrella under the arm.

Met Éireann says Tuesday will be "largely cloudy and dry" and while they also point out that "there will be outbreaks of light rain," these conditions are expected to be confined to Ulster and Connacht, hopefully far enough away from Laois in the Midlands.
