Tuesday night is set to turn wet and windy as rain spreads towards the northeast, possibly turning to sleet with snow possible on higher ground. Rain will linger in the east and north for much of the day, Met Éireann said. Although current indications suggest further outbreaks of rain at the weekend, it will be milder with temperatures “rising above average”, Met Éireann said.
