Ireland is set to enjoy a spell of warm, sunny weather over the coming days, with temperatures reaching up to 19 degrees and Monday expected to be the highlight of the pleasant conditions.
Met Éireann is forecasting dry and sunny weather across most parts of the country today, with highest temperatures ranging from 11 to 18 degrees. The warmest conditions will be experienced in western areas, while eastern and northeastern regions will be slightly cooler.
Some cloud cover may develop at times, primarily affecting southwestern coastal areas where there’s also a slight chance of one or two light showers. As night falls, temperatures will drop to between 1 and 7 degrees under largely dry and clear skies, with only isolated patches of mist developing.
The pleasant conditions will continue into tomorrow with another day of dry, sunny weather and temperatures reaching between 12 and 18 degrees. Western and southwestern regions will again enjoy the warmest temperatures, though coastal areas in the southwest may experience the occasional spot of drizzle.
Tomorrow night will bring clear skies and dry conditions, with temperatures falling to between 1 and 5 degrees.
The pleasant spell is set to peak on Monday, which Met Éireann describes as offering “plenty of sunshine” alongside the highest temperatures of the period, ranging from 13 to 19 degrees.
This extended period of sunny, dry weather provides an excellent opportunity for outdoor activities across the weekend and into the start of next week.
