Tuesday will be mostly cloudy with outbreaks of rain and drizzle across Munster, Met Éireann has said.

Temperatures will reach between 7 and 12 degrees, and it will be the mildest in the south of the province. 

Winds will be occasionally fresh, coming from the east and northeast. 

This evening, the rain will be mostly confined to the south, and temperatures will drop to between 5 and 9 degrees.

The rain and clouds will clear in north Munster heading into Wednesday morning.

It will remain cloudy in the south, with patchy rain, drizzle and mist, slowly clearing as the day goes on. 

It will be dry with a mix of cloud and sunny spells around the rest of the country, and with the odd chance of a stray shower.
