TODAY AND TOMORROW are set to be fine, sunny days across the country, but we had better enjoy the weather over the next couple of days with heavy rain forecast to return later next week.
Met Éireann forecasts temperatures will range between 12 and 16 degrees by early afternoon today, but it will be cooler along the Leinster and south-Munster coast due to easterly breezes.
This evening, temperatures will stay above freezing with frost in a few sheltered places only.
Sunday will follow suit, with temperatures again in the mid-teens, and Monday will also be a good day with more dry, settled weather.
The western half of the country will again enjoy temperatures in the mid-to-high teens throughout the weekend and into next week.
Showery rain will arrive in Munster on Monday evening, however, before spreading northward.
The sun should still persist for a time on Tuesday, before Wednesday brings with it heavy rain.
On Wednesday, Met Éireann predicts “further outbreaks of rain, turning heavy in many western counties during the day”, adding that there will be “further heavy falls of showery rain overnight”.

I wish the Journal and other media outlets would stop this over reporting of the weather. Everyday its the same crap, warm for a few days. Cold and wet for a few days. Thats Irish weather in a nutshell..
@Cosmo Kramer: To some of us busy people – the weather is critical to doing our jobs. Daily updates are critical.
@Cosmo Kramer: And maybe, the media should stop reporting the news too as it’s always the same – car accidents, strikes, drugs, crime?
@Fank Pulman: Frank the weather is either cold and wet, warm and dry, cold and sunny or wet and warm. Thats it with the exception of the odd windy day. Look out the window every now and again and your set..
@Cosmo Kramer: An extraordinarily naive post! Cursory window observations will not tell you when the weather will change – or what it’s like (or going to be like) in different locations.
@Fank Pulman: your not that busy dude
@Donnchadh Cassin: But, unlike you, I can spell…
@Cosmo Kramer: red thumb
I agree. The weather in this country is not news, and should not feature on ‘news’ apps. There are several good weather apps out there for those who are interested.
@Anthony Byrne: No – it’s not news. Just very important information, for many…
@Fank Pulman: maybe we should cancel all traffic reports as well – because we know the roads are always crowded!?
Yep. And the sky is blue. This is also information. Important information to some.
@Fank Pulman: Oh sorry didnt realise this was an english test…ya spanner. also a great sign that somebody has lost any argument when you resort to being a grammar cop.
You couldn’t even go one day. Do you have hard on’s for giving us bad news journal?
See the gimps going crazy at even a hint of sunshine. It’s still very cold outside.
@Censored: lovely n warm in my yard
@Censored: 17 degrees is hot for March in Ireland lad
Fab here. Don’t be so moany.
Those Sheriff Street lads jumping into the Liffey near the convention centre.
Do you all realise that you paid for their swimsuits?
Come on journal let us enjoy the few days we have. We know its not going to last forever its March ffs.
If we didn’t talk about the weather, we would have f*u*c*k all to talk about!
My umbrella is up and down more times than a wh*res knickers!
have your say
