Temperatures are expected to rise as high as 23C, although some showers—potentially heavy—are forecast for the early part of the week, reports The Mirror.
Met Éireann has predicted a “mixed” start to the week, with periods of rain or showers likely on Monday night, Tuesday afternoon and evening, and again on Wednesday morning, before more stable weather returns later in the week and heading into the weekend.
Temperatures are expected to reach approximately 23C on Tuesday, with the low 20s continuing through to the weekend as high pressure is expected to take hold, reports The Mirror.
Alan O’Reilly of Carlow Weather noted that Monday will start off cloudy with scattered showers, but temperatures could climb to 20C in parts of the North and West.
He wrote: “A cloudy start for many with a mix of sunny spells and well scattered showers ahead. Up to 20C today in Northern and Western areas but cooler in East and South,” reports The Mirror.
