Bit nippy today, isn't it? Well, get used to it because this weekend is going SUB-ZERO.

No, not the best fighter from Mortal Kombat (sorry, Scorpion), but actual sub-zero temperatures. Met Eireann reports that we're in for a weekend of severe frost and temperatures falling as low as -3 on Saturday morning.

Tonight's forecast has it that it'll remain cold and dry for most of the country, but with a few scattered showers here and there. Sunday, meanwhile, will remain frosty with temperatures expected to reach only 4 to 6 degrees, with some showers in Leinster, Munster and Connacht.

Monday, however, is looking a bit more normal with temperatures expected to get up to 7 to 10 degrees. We can't think of any Mortal Kombat or pop culture-related puns there, so we'll leave it at that.
