Met Eireann has this evening issued an updated weather advisory for extreme weather next week.
A Siberian weather front, which has been nicknamed the ‘Beast from the East', is due to bring freezing wintry conditions across the country.
Potential for real disruptive snow later next week! I have a feeling we’ll be looking back on the coming week for many years to come. #BeastFromTheEast pic.twitter.com/MuKtOqgOtO
