Mild at first but a risk of colder weather

The next 2 weeks are going to be mainly mild with rain or showers on most days. Temperatures will be around average at 7 to 10c and sunshine levels will be a little below normal. It is around the last week of February that things could get a little interesting.

Low pressure will be to the South and the High that never really reached us for the whole of the Winter may finally make its presence felt. It may only be for a week but the temperatures for the last week of February for Ireland could be as low as 3 to 5c and snow could fall on some occasions if precipitation lies near which it usually does in these parts.

Also the beginning of March is looking very cold for a couple of days but we'll leave that for now.
