There is even a possibility of some sleet and snow at times, along with hailstones and thunderstorms.

So a bit of everything, really. 

In another warning, a status yellow rainfall warning was also issued for Galway, Leitrim, Mayo, Sligo, Clare and Kerry.

There will be some very heavy downpours in these areas throughout Friday with a possibility as much as 40mm will fall in places.

"Cold and very unsettled weather will continue right over the weekend."

We won't get the barbecue out quite yet, then.
