There's a horrible week in store for Dublin with Met Eireann forecasting persistent heavy rain and freezing temperatures for the city.
Today will be cloudy with a few scattered showers but as the week goes on the rain will become heavy and temperatures will plummet dramatically.
It will be wet and breezy tomorrow morning before persistent rain turns heavy by the afternoon with highs of 12 to 14C.
The national forecast for the rest of the week predicts more heavy rain and grim weather with temperatures dropping to freezing by Wednesday night.
Here's how things are looking for the week ahead:
Tuesday: " Heavy and persistent rain in northern areas on Tuesday morning is expected to clear away to the north during the morning, but through the rest of the day further outbreaks of heavy rain are forecast to move northeastwards across the country as the low pressure system tracks over Ireland. Highest temperatures of 13 to 15 degrees."
Wednesday: " Wednesday will be a cooler day with moderate to fresh northerly winds, strong along western and northern coasts for a time.
"Highest temperatures of 10 to 13 degrees. Cloudy with some scattered showers at first, but brightening up to good spells of sunshine as the day goes.
