Met Eireann has issued two updated status yellow wind warnings for Halloween – and an orange marine warning as gale-force winds are set to blow across the country.
The yellow wind warnings are for Munster and a second for Galway and Mayo.
West to northwest winds will reach mean speeds of up 65km/hr with gusts of up to 90-110km/hr and higher gusts along coasts and exposed hills.
The weather warnings are in place for Munster until 2pm and until 10pm on Sunday in Galway and Mayo.
Meanwhile, the winds are set to continue into Monday, with a status yellow warning in place for Antrim, Down and Derry on Monday.
