The spring isn't setting in just yet.

Met Éireann has said that areas of higher ground in the northwest could be subject to snowfall this Thursday evening and Friday.

Furthermore, Alan O'Reilly from Carlow Weather also forecasted wintry showers on Thursday night.

Overall, the remainder of the week is set to be wet with temperatures expected to drop to zero degrees.

While today has had a dry start with sunny spells, scattered showers are set to begin later in the day, mainly along the coast.

Tomorrow, Thursday is set for a wet and windy start with rain turning heavy at times along with fresh and strong gusty winds.

Friday will be breezy with sunny spells breaking through scattered showers, which may fall as sleet and possibly snow at times.

It will be a dull and mild start on Saturday before cloud and rain extends across the country.

Looking ahead to Mother's Day, a cool day with blustery showers is to be expected.

Unfortunately, the spring weather isn't here just yet...
