Looks like the good weather will be sticking around until next weekend at least.

Met Éireann has predicted plenty of sunshine and temperatures of up to 23 degrees all week long.

Most areas will stay dry with sunny spells for the rest of the afternoon and this evening, especially across the eastern half of the country with highest temperatures of 15 to 20 degrees, continuing throughout the week.

Tuesday morning will be largely cloudy with patchy light rain and drizzle, however, it will become drier during the afternoon with sunny spells in many areas. Highest temperatures will reach 16 to 21 degrees.

On Wednesday, rain and drizzle will turn patchy through the day with sunshine gradually breaking through.

It will be warm and humid with temperatures of 17 to 22 degrees in most areas throughout the country.

Thursday will also be warm, humid, and breezy with scattered outbreaks of rain and drizzle.

There will be drier weather across the eastern half of the country with the sun breaking through at times. Temperatures will yet again reach between 17 to 23 degrees.

Atlantic counties will see further rain and drizzle after dark, with the rest of the country staying largely dry and warm throughout the night.

By Friday there’ll be sunny spells after a mostly cloudy start. Highest temperatures will range from 15 degrees at coasts of the west to 21 or 22 degrees in the southeast.

The good weather also seems to be likely to last through to next weekend too as Met Éireann confirmed that current indications suggest warm weather will stay in place next Saturday and Sunday also.
