IT’S GOING TO be a cold, wet windy day across the country with a risk of hail and thunder forecast.

Met Éireann says that showers will be widespread in every county, with blustery westerly winds a feature throughout the day.

Temperatures will be between seven to nine degrees but a “significant wind chill effect” will make it seem colder than it is.

The weather will be much the same all across Ireland for the day, with a risk of thunder particularly high for the west and the midlands and showers turning to hail in many areas.

Tomorrow will see further showers but with less of a chance of hail and thunder. Temperatures will be slightly higher between nine and 11 degrees with fresh winds.
