Errigal will get a dusting of snow on Wednesday
WEDNESDAY is going to be a horrible day with everything from snow to 80km/hr winds expected, forecasters have said.
The white stuff will only fall on high ground but it will pose a threat to new-born lambs.
And the wind-chill factor of the north-west winds will make it feel bitterly cold as a blast of Winter will make the early Spring day feel like just 2C.
BBC NI weather man Barra Best warned of showers of rain or hail throughout the day on Wednesday, accompanied by strong and gusty westerly winds.
He said there will be a risk of thunderstorms too with showers turning to snow on higher ground.
“It will feel very cold for the time of year,” he said.
Met Eireann has warned it will be bitterly cold tomorrow night and again on Thursday – with no respite this weekend.
There is a hint however that a new weather system from the south will start to push temperatures up towards 14C or 15C next Tuesday.
