It’s going to be a cold one.

A Status Yellow ice and low temperature warning has been issued for Ireland from 8pm on Wednesday until 10am on Thursday morning.

Met Éireann said it will be very cold with minima widely falling to -3 or -4 degrees celsius.

A Status Yellow snow and ice warning has also been issued for Ireland from 11pm on Wednesday until 11am on Thursday morning.

Snow and ice will lead to treacherous conditions and there are accumulations possible in some areas.

Meanwhile a snow and ice warning has also been issued for Antrim, Armagh, Down, Fermanagh, Tyrone and Derry.

The Met Office said snow and ice could potentially lead to difficult travel conditions in these areas.

The warning is valid from midnight tonight until 9am on Thursday morning.
