The warning is in place from 8pm tonight until 10am tomorrow.
Additionally, there is a Status Orange rain warning for Carlow, Kilkenny, Wexford, Wicklow, and Waterford valid until 9pm tonight as the national forecaster is warning of "heavy falls of rain will continue with surface flooding and poor driving conditions".
Temperatures are set to plummet to a freezing -3 degrees tonight with patches of sleet and snow on some areas.
It'll largely dry apart from that but cloud and outbreaks of rain will linger on the eastern fringes.
The forecaster added: "Hazardous conditions can be expected due to a widespread severe frost away from eastern fringes, with ice on untreated surfaces. Some pockets of dense fog or freezing fog will also occur, in mainly light variable winds".
Tomorrow
"Any frost, ice and fog will clear tomorrow morning to leave a largely dry and bright morning with sunny spells.
"However, cloud will build in from the Atlantic through the afternoon and evening with some patchy drizzle at times, but it will remain dry and bright in the east until later in the day.
"Turning breezier through the day also as light to moderate southerly winds increase fresh to strong during the afternoon. Highest temperatures of 7 to 10 degrees."
