Ireland will be as hot as Malaga at times this week with a long awaited warm spell finally here.
Met Éireann says temperatures will reach the low 20s or possibly higher over the next few days alongside “dry”, “sunny” and “summer-like conditions”, reports The Mirror.
Expected temperatures of 24°C mean Ireland will be warmer than parts of southern Spain, where a high of just 18°C and rain is expected in Malaga today.
In comparison, Ireland will enjoy days of dry, sunny and warm conditions.
The national meteorologist expects the good weather to last until at least the weekend and possibly into next week.
Giving a day by day breakdown, it said: “Dry Monday afternoon and evening with good spells of sunshine. Highest temperatures of 14C to 19C (north to south) in light to moderate northwest breezes. Staying dry Monday night with a mix of cloud and clear spells. Lowest temperatures of 4C to 9C in a light northwesterly breeze. Tuesday will be dry for most with good spells of sunshine, especially in the south and east. Cloudier in the west and north with possible coastal drizzle. Highest temperatures of 13C to 19C, coolest along northern and Atlantic fringes but mild in sunshine, in no more than moderate northwest breezes,” reports The Mirror.
“Dry and clear Tuesday night, apart from coastal showers in the northwest. Lows of 4C to 8C in light northeasterly breezes. Dry and mostly sunny Wednesday, though cloudier skies across the northwest will produce some light rain or showers. Highest temperatures of 14C to 19C, in just light northwest breezes with best values across the east and southeast,” it added, reports The Mirror.
