Your weekend weather forecast is here, and you’ll be dressing for every season

It won't make up its mind.

The weekend is (almost) here, and we're excited. However, it is currently lashing out of the heavens, which isn't exactly the nicest. But will it be that way all weekend? The Met Eireann weather forecast for the weekend is here, and it's a lot. "A cold and frosty start on Friday with pockets of fog gradually lifting. Most areas will have a dry day with spells of sunshine and light breezes. Highest temperatures of between 5 and 9 degrees." That's not to shabby. "Friday night will be dry and cold early in the night with some frost. Temperatures will increase overnight as southerly winds freshen and outbreaks of rain spread to Atlantic coastal counties" "Rain will then extend eastwards across the country during the night, turning heavy and persistent. Minimum temperatures of 0 to 3 degrees, occurring early in the night." Okay, why so cold? "Cloudy and rather wet to start the day on Saturday with outbreaks of rain. The rain will clear eastwards during the morning with a mix of bright spells and scattered showers following on behind." "Maximum temperatures of 6 to 10 degrees in fresh westerly breezes. Cold on Saturday night with showers becoming confined to coastal districts. Minimum temperatures of 1 to 4 degrees in moderate northwest breezes." In good news though, it looks set to be predominantly dry on Sunday with sunny spells. "Highest temperatures of 7 to 10 degrees in moderate northeast winds. Sunday night will begin dry with some early frost but a spell of rain will spread from the Atlantic later in the night. Minimum temperatures of 2 to 5 degrees." And what about the dreaded Monday? It looks set to be a wet start to the new week with outbreaks of rain on Monday morning - UGH. However, brighter weather with scattered showers will follow from the west during the day. Highest temperatures of 6 to 9 degrees in brisk westerly winds. Breezy overnight with scattered showers, some of hail in the northwest. Minimum temperatures of 0 to 3 degrees. There you have it. Bring you umbrella, winter woolies and your sunnies out this weekend.
