Three weather warnings?! So, Met Éireann has REALLY laid it on us
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.
Bec v windy in E & SE coastal counties this aft,especially Wexford coast with the risk of damaging gusts. Bec wet in these parts too…

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.
….Other parts of country mainly dry&increasing cloud,but coastal shwrs in parts of W & NW. Max 4-7C, with added windchill effect.

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!
