A status yellow warning for wind has been issued for three counties as Met Éireann says strong and gusty winds are expected. Met Éireann said the strong winds, especially in coastal areas, can lead to difficult travelling conditions, debris/ loose object displacement, as well as fallen branches or trees. Meanwhile, some sleet, snow, frost and ice is expected later this week as Met Éireann says low pressure will dominate before cooler air comes in with "wintry hazards" possible. Clear spells and some scattered showers will come in from the west, mainly affecting Atlantic coastal counties, with a chance of hail. It will take a turn on Wednesday evening, with showery outbreaks of rain moving eastwards with strong winds.
