The office says heavy rain may lead to some disruption.<\/p>\n<p class=\"c-paragraph paywall b-it-article-body__text--left\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.irishtimes.com\/tags\/met-eireann\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" title=\"https:\/\/www.irishtimes.com\/tags\/met-eireann\">Met \u00c9ireann<\/a> predicts a dull start for the rest of the country, with outbreaks of drizzle and occasionally heavy rain. The national forecaster says Connacht and Munster should see sunny spells mixed with scattered showers in the afternoon, with the rain clearing to the northeast by evening. Temperatures should reach between nine and 12 degrees in some areas.<\/p>\n<p class=\"c-paragraph paywall b-it-article-body__text--left\">On Monday morning, the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.irishtimes.com\/tags\/weather-ireland\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" title=\"https:\/\/www.irishtimes.com\/tags\/weather-ireland\">weather in Ireland<\/a> is expected to be dry and bright for many, with scattered showers. Met \u00c9ireann says cloud will increase through the day, with rain outbreaks moving in from the southwest later. <\/p>\n<p class=\"c-paragraph paywall \">Counties Carlow, Kilkenny, Wexford, Cork, Kerry, Tipperary and Waterford will come under a status yellow rain warning from 9pm on Monday until 9am Tuesday. The forecaster warns of possible localised flooding and difficult travel conditions.<\/p>\n<p class=\"c-paragraph paywall \">The State will also be affected by a status yellow wind warning between 3am and 9pm on Tuesday. Met \u00c9ireann anticipates \u201cvery strong and gusty\u201d southerly winds, with gales possible near coasts. It says there is an increased risk in coastal areas due to the coincidence of very high spring tides.<\/p>\n<p class=\"c-paragraph paywall \">While the wind alert is in force, people should be wary of the potential for difficult travel conditions, flooding of low-lying coastal areas, wave overtopping and debris.<\/p>\n<p class=\"c-paragraph paywall \">A gale warning for all coasts takes effect for the entirety of Tuesday.<\/p>\n<p class=\"c-paragraph paywall \">Met \u00c9ireann predicts Wednesday will be a breezy day with sunshine and scattered showers. Some of the rain could be heavy, prolonged, and bring a chance of hail and thunder, mainly in the west and north.<\/p>\n<p class=\"c-paragraph paywall \">Later in the week, the forecaster expects the weather  to remain unsettled, with further rain and the risk of strong winds at times. However, it says there will likely be dry and bright periods.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Southern counties will be affected by a status yellow rain warning from Monday night, before the entire State&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":140970,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[42,40003,43,40,38,41,39,40004],"class_list":{"0":"post-180619","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-headlines","8":"tag-headlines","9":"tag-ireland-weather-forecast","10":"tag-news","11":"tag-top-news","12":"tag-top-stories","13":"tag-topnews","14":"tag-topstories","15":"tag-weather-tomorrow"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/180619","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=180619"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/180619\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/140970"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=180619"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=180619"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=180619"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
