Probably dry with good sunny spells through the morning. Showers likely in the mid to late afternoon, some of which could be heavy bursts with the possibility of thunderstorms.

Highest temperatures around 13deg in light variable breezes.

On this day in 1939, an Irish Air Corps Avro Anson A43 was the first aircraft to land at the new international airport at Rineanna in Co Clare, later to become Shannon Airport.
