Wet and windy conditions are set to continue across Ireland this week, with Met Éireann warning that a frontal system on Thursday night will bring a spell of heavy rain and possibly strong winds nationwide. A heavy band of rain will move over southern counties in the afternoon, bringing heavy and persistent falls alongside strong, blustery winds. It will remain very wet and unsettled on Thursday night, with heavy rain and very strong winds. Friday will be cloudy with rain, heavy at times in the west. Looking ahead to the weekend, current indications suggest unsettled conditions will continue, with rain — possibly heavy — on Saturday.
