Wind warnings are due to come into force for 11 counties early tomorrow morning.
The worst of the wind is expected to hit Donegal where a Status Orange warning will come into force from 8am until midday tomorrow.
The forecaster said southwest winds veering west to northwest will reach mean speeds of 60 to 75kph, with gusts of up to 120kph.
Meanwhile, a Status Yellow wind warning is due to come into force for Cavan, Monaghan, Donegal, Dublin, Louth, Meath, Galway, Leitrim, Mayo, Sligo and Clare between 4am and 6pm.
Met Éireann said wind swill reach average speeds of 65kph with gusts of 11kph.
It said there is an increased possibility of coastal flooding along western and north-western coast due to a “combination of waves, spring tides and surge.”
A Status Yellow snow/ice warning is also due to remain in place in Donegal until 8am.
