Weather models show 'unusual' blast of cold air coming which could bring snow for EasterCREDIT: Carlow Weather
Latest weather models show a blast of "very cold air" moving down Easter Monday, according to www.carlowweather.com forecaster, Alan O'Reilly.
He added: "This is very unusual looking and would have the potential to bring some snow also. Remains a long way off though so don't go writing snowy April stories yet.
"How cold could it get? Possibly a hard frost and down to as low as -5C Easter Monday night. Long, long way off yet in weather forecasting terms but one for fruit growers and gardeners to keep a close eye on. Oh and also maybe golfers."
Irish Weather Online experts said Easter Sunday night will see a sharp drop in temperatures.
Easter Monday and Tuesday are being shown as "much colder days with northerly winds of 50-80 km/hr and mixed wintry showers likely, some snow on hills."
Highs will only reach 4 to 6 C and lows -3 to +1 C, according to Irish Weather Online.
The experts say there is "potential for a second wave of very cold temperatures to follow within a week".
