Temperatures to reach 18 degrees as Met Éireann promises long overdue spell of sunny weather
Never has the phrase “warm and mainly dry with sunny spells†sounded so good.
Even by Ireland’s standards, the weather in 2018 so far has been particularly miserable and, quite frankly, we could all use a break from it.
Thankfully, and not before time, a long overdue spell of pleasant weather is set to arrive in the coming days, with Met Éireann forecasting temperatures of up to 18 degrees and as many as FIVE CONSECUTIVE DAYS when warm and mainly dry weather will prevail in most of the country.
As is so often the case in Ireland, it will get worse before it gets better, with a risk of localised flooding in many areas on Monday following a wet and windy day with heavy rain in many areas.
Tuesday will be warmer, with highest temperatur es of 16 degrees, but it will still be wet, with persistent showers throughout the day, many of them heavy, in most of the country.
