Aside from the snow, there’s a new wind warning in operation for Munster, Connacht and Leinster

A number of counties will experience winds of 50 to 65km/h and gusts of 90 to 110km/h

Met Éireann also warns that there is an increased risk of coastal flooding ‘due to the combination of the high seas, strong winds and the low pressure’.
