It is time to wrap up friends, because Ireland is to be hit by a massive storm tomorrow, bringing winds of up to 100 km per hour.

Later in the week, the ‘Beast from the East’ freeze will arrive to our lovely Isle, and will see temperatures drop to as low as -10C.

Get the hot water ready, because it is time to get cosy.

A weather forecaster said: “Strong, gusty south to southeast winds on Monday will reach mean speeds of 45km/hr to 65km/hr, with gusts of 90km/hr to 100km/hr in coastal areas.

YIKES! 

The freezing weather is expected to arrive from Russia over the next few days, with the cold snap continuing through the weekend. 

Met Eireann has forecast 3C to 6C next weekend, but it could feel much colder as a result of the windchill.

A forecaster said: “Friday and next weekend will be very cold as an easterly airflow becomes established over Ireland.

This is the perfect excuse to build a fort, and binge watch Netflix shows ALL WEEK.

If you've already braved the elements today, you'll be only too aware of the current weather conditions.

But just in case you were holding out any hope that the day may brighten up, we're here to dash them.

According to the Met Eireann website, forecasters have issued three yellow wind warnings – both national and marine – which will remain in place until 6am tomorrow.

The country is set to face winds of up to 100 km/h in addition to spells of heavy rain over the next 24 hours.

As we head closer to the weekend, the weather is still to pick up a little, but Saturday is set to experience periods of rain, snow and sleet, while Sunday will see more rain before the development of frost later that evening.

And if anyone needs us, we'll be in our fort.

We've all been finding it surprisingly mild of late, so it makes sense we'd be due a right old shock to our systems, doesn't it?

And this weekend, we're going to get it.

According to those in the know,  a cold weather snap is currently making its way through Europe, and we're about to experience the tail end of it.

Met Éireann have advised the public that we are in for frosty conditions over the next 48 hours, with temperartures set to drop to as low as -3.

Tonight will be cold and clear while Saturday will kick off with frosty conditions and icy stretches which will stay put across the weekend before clearing as we head into next week.

Oh, joy!

We had been warned that wintry conditions were set to hit the island – and it's now official: it's SNOWING in Ireland.

One caller told 2fm's Breakfast Republic that a bit of a blizzard is going on in Wicklow, while others around the country have been posting snaps of their own mini winter wonderlands on social media.

Kristine Boyd is this morning in Belfast – where the snow is coming down fast and heavy.

And Maeve McGrath in Kerry captured her dog on a snowy walk this morning. 

There is also snowfall in Tipperary.

As well as in Ballymena in Co. Antrim.

Met Éireann has said that it will be "very cold today," with "some hill snow in places" which "will turn increasingly to sleet and snow at lower levels this morning, mainly over Ulster, Connacht and west Munster and in remaining areas this afternoon and evening."

And if that wasn't enough to make you want to hibernate, it adds: "Some thunderstorms are likely to develop also. Top afternoon temperatures of just 2 to 4 C., and feeling colder in the strengthening west to northwesterly wind."

Brrrrrrrrrr!

While we may have been dreaming of a white Christmas, snow in December is a rarity.

It's the early spring months that deliver a sheet of the frozen white fluff, if we're lucky.

According to Met Éireann, some parts of the country can expect snow from Wednesday and Thursday onwards. 

"A band of persistent rain will develop in Connacht and Ulster, spreading to other parts, but becoming more patchy,' say the weather experts.

"Clearer, much colder conditions will follow by Wednesday night, but with occasional showers, some turning to hail, sleet and snow, especially in the northern half of the country."

We've been having a suspiciously mild winter, so realistically we all knew it was going to catch up on us eventually.

Get the brollies and cosy coats out!

While we always knew there wasn't much chance of us getting a white Christmas, we were still secretly holding on to hope.

However, Met Eireann has issued a level orange weather warning for the rest of the week and the Christmas weekend, and it involves a lot of rain rather than a whimsical flurry of snow.

Heavy downpours and winds of up to 70kmph will begin to hit Ireland on Thursday, continuing until St Stephen's Day.

Coastal regions of Galway, Mayo and Donegal are expected to be the worst effected, with winds of up to 120kmph.

A status yellow warning has been put in place for the rest of the country.

As the old saying goes, "don't make unnecessary journeys, don't take risks on treacherous roads."

Here in Ireland, we've been having some pretty weird weather this December.

From balmy warm days to torrential rain and ice, we rely on the weather forecast to tell us if we'll need an umbrella or sunglasses tomorrow. Or both.

According to last night's weather forecast, Galway natives should batten down the hatches and boil a few hot water bottles, as winter has arrived.

According to the forecast, the west coast needs to prepare for the new Ice Age as temperatures drop to -13 degrees in Galway.

However, across the Mayo border things were a more temperate 6 degrees. 

As the traditional saying goes, "you wouldn't be long getting frost bite!"

However, according to weather.com, Galway is currently enjoying a rainy 7 degrees in temperature.

Clearly this was a technical error, otherwise it will be some task battling the elements to get home to Galway for Christmas this year.

If you spent your entire morning commute cursing the icy conditions which have descended upon the country, Met Éireann's latest update won't do much to cheer you up.

According to emerging reports, we're not likely to see the back of the current weather any time soon, with the good folk behind the nation's meteorological service issuing not one, not two but THREE yellow weather warnings.

Dublin, Louth, Wicklow, Meath and Wexford are the main focus, with forecasters confirming that wind and rainfall will intensify over the course of the afternoon.

It is understood that these counties should expect strong north to northwest winds in addition to heavy rainfall and spot flooding.

And if that wasn't woeful enough, we should also expect sleet and snow overnight while tomorrow morning is set to bring rain and sleet with temperatures expected to plummet to 0 degree Celsius.

Oh, joy!

It's fierce heavy out there today. Met Éireann are politely calling it "warm and humid" (they're not wrong) – and there's also been a load of mist along the south coast. 

And while temperatures will hover around the low-to-mid 20s (that'll do nicely, September; that'll do), it's the CRAZY humidity that really caught our eye. 

Yup – in short there is about zero point in attempting to do anything with your gruaige until at least Thursday. 

Spare a particular thought for Cork: there, humidity has hit a MAD 98 percent. Waterford came in at 94 percent, with Galway hovering around the 90 percent mark. 

Dublin gets off lightly with a mere 77 percent humidity. Limerick and Belfast notch up an 88 percent and an 82 percent respectively. 

As for sleeping tonight, you won't be getting much of it. Met Éireann warn: "Tuesday night will be another close and humid night with widespread mist and with patches of drizzle and fog also."

Ladies, hold on to your tents – there’s RAIN a comin’.

While Irish festival goers know only too well not to expect Coachella-style climes at home, it sure would be nice not to have to buy a boat before this weekend’s highly anticipated Electric Picnic.

Unfortunately though this coming weekend is on its way with one simple warning: DON’T forget your wellies!

Met Eireann has reported good news for those with a Friday EP pass as – some scattered showers aside – “a good deal of dry weather” is predicted as the favoured festival gets underway.

But sadly the truly dedicated revellers amongst us could be facing “wet and blustery [conditions] with persistent rain” for the rest of the weekend as showers will be a feature of Saturday night and Sunday.

So if your mam offers you a raincoat, poncho or brollie as you head off to Stradbally, make sure you take it.

Yesterday, the good folk at Met Éireann told us that we'd likely be in for a wet and windy weekend, but we're a hopeful bunch and crossed our fingers that it was just a a passing blip.

And then this morning they issued a status yellow weather warning.

In place up until 6pm today, the warning affects Wexford, Clare, Cork, Kerry, and Waterford and comes after violent winds and heavy, thundery rain rocked the country last night.

Hot on the heels of Met Éireann's forecast, the Republic's police force took to Twitter to offer similar advice.

In words which would be music to our ears on a weekday but are much, much less appealing as we kick off the weekend, an Garda Síochána basically advised us to sit this one out.

"It wet and windy out there. Unless like us you have to get up I'd suggest turning over for another snooze. If you have to go out be safe," they wrote. (sic)

"Will do, wouldn't want to get done for refusing to follow the direction of a Garda," responded one Twitter user.

Further to this, forecasters have urged anyone planning trips to the seaside to exercise caution due to high spring tides, aggressive sea conditions, and strong winds.

And if you need us, we'll be back in bed… the Guards told us.

We've all been looking forward to the weekend, but when the weather is like THIS, it's hard to get excited.

According to Met Eireann, today is going to be "wet and windy with spells of heavy showery rain continuing throughout the day." Lovely.

South to southeast winds are going to be very strong, but it will be warm out, with temperatures reaching up to 20 degrees.

Tonight, there will be heavy showers overnight and windy.

Tomorrow we'll be welcomed with heavy showers throughout the day, with some sunny intervals. Temperatures will reach up to 19 degrees.
