Met Éireann says spells of heavy rain can be expected at times and that possible impacts include localised flooding, poor visibility and difficult travelling conditions.
In its latest forecast, Met Éireann says Sunday is likely to still be wet and blustery in the east of the country at first, though the rain should clear eastwards through the morning.

"Otherwise it's going to be a cool, breezy day, with sunshine and a scattering of showers. Highest temperatures of 11 to 14 degrees and feeling cooler than that with the added wind chill effect from a fresh and gusty northerly wind," states the latest forecast.
