Keep your umbrellas out as more rain and some wintry showers are expected this week.
Even though a weather advisory for rainfall comes to an end on Tuesday, heavy rain is expected to fall this morning across parts of the country.
The Weather Advisory is in place for Connacht, Longford, Offaly, Westmeath, Cavan, Donegal, Clare, Cork, Kerry, Limerick and Tipperary and has seen local flooding as river levels remain high.
Wednesday will see a dip in the mercury leading to frost at night and a risk of snow and sleet.
A Met Eireann spokesman said: “Changeable and unsettled weather continuing for the rest of the week.
"Mild at first, but turning colder from Wednesday, with frost at night and a risk of wintry showers on Wednesday and Thursday.”
Tuesday will see heavy rain lash Connacht and Ulster but will be patchier elsewhere.
A forecaster added: “A band of showery rain will cross the country later in the night, breaking up as it does so.
“The rain heaviest and most persistent over Connacht and Ulster, patchier in nature elsewhere.
“Minimum temperatures 2 to 5 degrees.
“Southwesterly winds strengthening with gales on western and northwestern coasts.”
Wednesday will see more widespread wintry showers, with a risk of hail and thunder.
The weather chiefs said: “Some of the showers will be heavy and wintry with a risk of hail and thunder.
“Feeling cooler with max temperatures of only 5 to 8 degrees in the north, reaching 8 or 9 degrees further south, in brisk and blustery southwesterly winds.”
Meanwhile in the UK, three weeks worth of rain is forecast to fall in just two days.
A yellow weather warning is in place across a swathe of the country, with up to four inches of rainfall due over Monday and Tuesday.
Wales, which has been badly hit by flooding in recent weeks, will feel the brunt of the latest onslaught.
