In the news today, Wednesday 21 February: after a frosty start to the morning, TDs are set to discuss a motion on suckler supports while diesel prices drop unevenly across the country.
A status yellow warning is in place until 10am today for low temperatures as overnight values may drop to -3°C. Met Éireann forecasts that frost, mist and fog will then clear in the morning and give way to a dry day with sunny spells. The odd isolated shower will occur along the south and east coast. Top temperatures will range between 7°C and 9°C in light to moderate southeast breezes.
