Rain in the East

Clear in the Northwesr

Rain continues for the East for a time as we head into May with the West basking in some warm bright sunshine. Temperatures could reach 17 or 18c but in the East and Northeast it will only be 11 or 12c at best. The cool pattern spreads to all parts of Ireland later with some Wintry showers this time in the North. Temperatures at the end of the period will have dropped back considerably to values of around 8 or 9c. Snow is very possible on the hilltops but this is still one to keep an eye on.
