No, you won’t be getting any snow.

Well lads, we’re just days away from the most magical event of the year – Christmas.

And the big question on all our minds is “will it be lashing rain?”

According to the lovely folks at Met Eireann, we’re in for a pretty decent few days of weather, including Christmas Day.

The forecaster said:

“Sunday will bring a mix of sunshine and showers, with remaining mist and fog patches in the east and north clearing during the morning. The showers will be most frequent in the west, with a few of them heavy. Light to moderate west to southwest winds will increase fresh to strong and gusty near west and southwest coasts. Highest temperatures of 6 to 8 degrees.”

“A mix of clear spells and scattered showers on Sunday night with lowest temperatures of 3 to 6 degrees in moderate westerly breezes.”

“Monday is looking to be mainly dry with sunny spells. Towards evening rain may develop in the south. Highest temperatures of 7 to 9 degrees in moderate westerly breezes. Good clear spells will develop on Monday night. Minimum temperatures of -1 to +3 degrees with a patchy frost.”

Crisp, dry and festive – gorgeous.

“Tuesday, Christmas Eve is looking largely dry as well, though again, there is a chance that rain develops in the south. Highest temperatures of 5 to 8 degrees. The night before Christmas will probably be a cold one with widespread frost and temperatures as low as -2 or -3 degrees.”

“Current indications are that Christmas Day will be largely dry with some sunshine and only light winds. However, latest indications also suggest that wet and windy weather will develop later on Christmas Day, in the evening or early night.”

NO RAIN. A CHRISTMAS MIRACLE.

Have a good one folks.
