Ireland is in for a scorcher of a week according to Met Eireann’s latest forecast.
After a lengthy period of cloud and rain hampering summer outdoor plans, it seems a stunning weather system over Ireland this week will make up for it.
It will be very warm today with long spells of sunshine and just a little patchy cloud, the forecast reads.
Top temperatures generally ranging between 22 and 26 degrees, in light to moderate easterly or variable breezes.
Things will be warm and humid tonight with mostly clear skies and just a few mist or fog patches. Later on, some showers may move into the southwest. Lowest temperatures of 13 to 18 degrees in just light easterly breezes.
Here’s what the rest of the week is looking like – as of Monday, Sept 4th at 1:00 pm.
