We're set for another very cold day in Dublin as we prepare for another snow and ice warning set to kick in on the early hours of Saturday morning.
Temperatures won't go any higher than 5C today, and we can expect the odd snow flurry throughout the day.
But the real wintry weather will begin tonight when the mercury will drop to -1C and from 2am Met Eireann says to prepare for snow and ice across all of Leinster, Connact and Munster.
The 10 hour warning will continue through to mid-day before heavy rain makes its way across Ireland.
Met Eireann says: "Generally cloudy this morning with just the odd snow flurry. Mostly dry this afternoon with a few bright spells expected. Another cold and blustery day with highs of 2 to 5 degrees in fresh and gusty southeast winds.
"Dry early tonight but sleet and snow will spread from the west later with accumulations expected bringing hazardous conditions on roads and pathways with reduced visibility. Minimum temperatures of -1 to +3 degrees in strong southeast winds."
Here's what to expect in the coming days:
Saturday
Sleet and snow for a time on Saturday morning with further accumulations, bringing a risk of some disruption. By afternoon, falls of snow will have transitioned to rain and a thaw will set in. Maximum temperatures of 2 to 6 degrees in strong and gusty southeast winds.
