FORECASTERS say snow will return to Donegal this week.
BBC, RTE and online forecasters all say the county will be hit with the white stuff on Tuesday.
And it may even linger into Wednesday as wintry conditions continue to bite into spring.
Peter O’Donnell from Irish Weather Online said: “We have issued an alert for widespread hail or snow showers the next several days and a slight to moderate risk of heavy accumulations of snow in northern and central (inland) counties mid-week, not just on hills but at lower elevations.
“Although it’s later in March than the previous event, this one has less dry air to overcome and an abundant supply of moisture. Counties north of a line from Galway to Dublin (and in particular inland parts of Ulster) could see some significant snow cover developing especially around Wednesday.”
It will be cold overnight with a risk of ice on many roads on Monday morning.
And it looks like the cold weather will continue through into next weekend – with even more snow possible.
