Brrr! Temperatures could slip below freezing tonight

Winter is coming… according to tonight’s forecast for freezing temperatures.

Met Eireann is forecasting a chilly night with clear spells and lows of zero to +4 Celsius in northern counties.

The northwest may escape the coolest temperatures, as the Ulster forecast warns it will be “coldest in the south of the province where some patchy frost will develop”.

Tomorrow (Thursday) will be another cool day with temperatures ranging from 8 to 10 degrees Celsius.

The forecast reads: “Largely dry on Thursday with isolated showers. Some bright or sunny spells for a time but cloud will increase from the northwest as the day wears on.”
