It’s not often we can brag about being one of the hottest spots in Europe but for this week at least – we get to shout it out loud.
A warm but dull week will lead into broken sunshine at the weekend and temperatures hitting the high end of the teens.
Met Eireann has said temperatures across the country will see highs of 18c with sun blasting its way through the clouds.
We’ll be hotter than Paris, Rome, Turkey and the UK as their temperatures remain in the mid teens.
Dust off the sunglasses, you’re going to need them!
