The warning is valid for the whole country from 12:00am on Saturday all day and night through to 23:59 Saturday night.
Met Eireann issued further details on this warning stating that heavy rain and strong winds are expected.
Heavy rain during Saturday will lead to accumulations of 30 to 50mm with some mountainous areas exceeding these limits.
Winds will increase to reach 55 to 60 km/h during Saturday morning, strongest in the east.
