Cork Weather: Met Éireann says we’ll be dodging spring showers for most of the week ahead
We’re accustomed to the odd drenching.
But if you’re planning on being out and about for longer than twenty minutes this week, it’s wise to bring a brolly – Met Éireann is forecasting at least five days of spring showers.
It’s a cloudy start this morning, Tuesday with some rain in places, but there’ll be sunny spells and scattered showers in the afternoon and highest temperatures of 10 or 11 degrees generally, in light variable breezes.
“On Tuesday night any lingering showers will die out early and it’ll be mainly dry and clear overnight.” said a forecaster.
It’ll be nippy after dark so bring the plants in; lowest temperatures will range from zero to plus 2 degrees with mist and fog patches developing.
April showers for the coming days, with cold nights leading to some frost 🌦️🥶
Mid-week seeing fewer showers 🌥️ Possibly some rain along the west coast 🌧️
Easterly winds by the end of the week with temperatures improving in the west 📈

“On Wednesday there’s a risk of rain and drizzle in the west where it will be cloudy at times, generally though it will be largely dry with some sunny spells. Highest temperatures of 10 to 15 degrees in light to moderate southerly breezes. Temperatures overnight no lower than 4 to 6 degrees.”
Thursday will bring a mix of sunny spells and scattered showers, most frequent in the southwest of the country with the possibility of more persistent falls of rain. Highest temperatures will range between 13 and 15 degrees.
Things are already looking up for next week, however; “Current indications suggest that the easterly winds stay with us through next weekend with mainly dry weather expected.” added the forecaster.
