But it’s not all bad news as Met Eireann has forecast a surprise turn at the weekend when mild and settled conditions are due to take hold.
Before then, as the jet stream strengthens, much of the country will be hit by long spells of unsettled conditions, although there will still be some periods of drier weather.
