Dublin weather forecast: Cold nights and frost expected with rain to hit later this week

The first frosts of the winter look set to be on their way with temperatures set to plummet at night across the capital.

Today will be dry in the city with sunny spells and temperatures of between 11 and 13C.

But as the night draws in, temperatures will drop to as low as 0C with Met Eireann saying we can expect a touch of grass frost.

Tuesday will remain dry but the weather is predicted to take a turn for the worst on Wednesday with rain set to sweep across the country.

The national forecast reads: "On Wednesday, rain in the west will gradually spread across the country.

"The rain will turn heavy at times in the west. It will become breezy as well with fresh and gusty southerly winds.

"Early Wednesday night the rain will clear with just a few showers following.

"Minimum temperatures of 4 to 7 degrees in light westerly breezes.

"It looks like it will be mostly dry on Thursday with some sunny spells. Highest temperatures will be between 9 and 12 degrees in light breezes.

"On Friday, it seems likely that rain moves up from the south, possibly turning heavy.

"In this scenario it will become milder as well from the south as the day goes on. Strong winds are also possible with the rain."
