Another hazard will be fog which will become dense in many places by dawn. Lowest temperatures 0 to -4 degrees Celsius.
The outlook for tomorrow onwards is that Sunday will be a dry day with little or no wind Met Eireann says. However, overnight fog and frost will be slow to clear and may linger throughout the day in some places. Staying cold Met Eireann says with highest temperatures just 2 to 6 degrees Celsius.
Outlook
Met Eireann says it will be another extremely cold and frosty night on Sunday night with little or no wind and air temperatures falling to minus 4 or minus 5 degrees in many areas. A few mist or freezing fog patches likely also.
