Tuesday, 21 October, 2014 Forecasts for Ireland ALERT for continued strong winds in north Connacht, Ulster, north Leinster and for those travelling, Irish Sea and central Britain today, gusts to 120 km/hr in the most exposed locations, 100 km/hr more generally. These winds will ease in most affected areas of Ireland by afternoon. Also, watch for brief but potentially intense passing squalls of hail that could reduce visibility and make roads quite slippery, combined with glare from low sun, could make for dangerous road conditions in some central counties this morning. TODAY ... The very strong winds will gradually moderate in most regions, but may persist well into the afternoon in parts of Ulster and north Leinster, as well as coastal north Connacht. Passing showers, at first producing some hail and squally conditions, will become more confined to the north with frequent sunny intervals developing across the south. Winds WNW 70-110 km/hr easing to 40-70 km/hr. Feeling cold all day north, morning elsewhere, due to the strong winds, with highs eventually reaching 10 C north, 13 C south. It will feel closer to 3-5 C out in the wind this morning however. TONIGHT ... Clear intervals, breeze should prevent frost but lows 4 to 7 C for most, 8-10 C near west coast, as winds maintain 30-50 km/hr speeds while backing into the southwest. WEDNESDAY ... Partly cloudy, milder, although steady rain likely near north coast and at times in some inland parts of Ulster. Highs near 14 C. Moderate southwest breezes backing more to southerly, 30-50 km/hr. THURSDAY ... Cloudy, mild, periods of rain. Lows near 8 C and highs 13-15 C. FRIDAY ... Partly cloudy, showers, lows near 6 C and highs near 13 C.
