Proven Weather Forecast for Ireland – 26 March 2025
This morning the weather in Ireland is a thick veil of mist and fog once again. While conditions will improve slightly through the morning hours, don’t expect a blue sky bonanza—cloud cover dominates and sunshine will be at a premium. As the afternoon creeps in, patchy drizzle and coastal mist will start to build across the country, particularly in the west. The northwest will bear the brunt of the evening with incoming light rain, marking yet another damp and uneventful March day. If you were hoping for a spring surge, you’ll have to keep waiting.

Tonight’s Outlook
Don’t expect much of a change after sunset. Cloud cover will stay firmly in place, smothering most of the country. Light rain and drizzle will continue in western and northwestern counties, while eastern and southern regions might catch a brief dry spell. Mist and fog will form across low-lying areas. It’ll be a relatively mild night with temperatures dipping no lower than 7 to 10 degrees. Winds will be light to moderate from the southwest, but remain fresher out west.
Impact and Travel Considerations
Visibility may be reduced in the morning and again overnight due to mist and fog—so commuters and road users should exercise caution. Ground conditions in the west remain soft due to ongoing rain, particularly in coastal and upland areas. While there’s no widespread weather warning in effect at this time, parts of the west could experience minor travel disruptions later in the evening due to persistent drizzle and low cloud.
Looking Ahead
Thursday is expected to bring more unsettled weather with widespread showers and increased wind activity heading into the weekend. Long-range forecasts suggest a shift in pressure systems early next week, but don’t bet your Bank Holiday plans on it just yet—watch this space.
