WELL, IT’S THE first day of September and it looks like the warm weather isn’t going anywhere for the time being – some good news for Electric Picnic-goers.
Met Éireann says temperatures today are to range between 18 and 22 degrees, with some light breezes.
This afternoon is to be bright with sunny spells developing. However, some light drizzle may persist on north and northwest coasts.
Tonight will again be mainly dry apart from some patchy drizzle along coastal areas.
Temperatures will drop to between 12 and 14 degrees overnight, and Met Éireann says light southerly winds will increase along Atlantic coasts by the morning.
Tomorrow is expected to start dry in most areas, however, outbreaks of rain and drizzle are forecast to develop in the west during the morning.
These outbreaks will spread eastwards across the country throughout the day, but they aren’t expected to reach the east coast until early evening.
Temperatures tomorrow will range between 17 and 23 degrees.
Looking into next week, Met Éireann says high pressure will dominate the weather over the country, leading to mostly dry conditions.
Monday and Tuesday are set to be dry, with sunny spells.
The best of the sunshine will be in Leinster and Munster, Met Éireann says, with cloudier conditions in Connacht and Ulster.
Temperatures will range between 14 and 18 degrees on Monday and Tuesday.
Wednesday is again expected to be mainly dry, with some rain or drizzle for a time in the northwest.

I received my email from apple requesting my iPod Nano and have gone through the steps for a replacement. I’m an apple nerd anyway but I am very impressed that they will replace my iPod that is 6 years old!
They dont really have much choice, if there was a dangerous fault in the original device they are still responsible.
So you’re happy that it only took them six years to admit fault and recall a product that’s known to burst into flames? Yeah, woo! Go Apple!
Anyone got a clue as to what type of replacement we’d be getting? And I’m gonna be without my iPod for a few weeks now because that was my only one since my last one got stolen.
The replacement will be another first gen apparently. Someone on another site called Apple and that’s what he was told.
How do I go about sending mine back does anyone know.
There’s a link there in the article i think. You’ll have to create an apple id if you haven’t one already.

That’s what they mean by “assault and battery” is it? More like “arson and battery”. I had a Apple replacement battery for my G4 MacBook . Seems batteries are a bit of a problem for Apple. Fair play to Apple, they do own up if they’ve sold you a dud but it can’t help the brand. A lot of people think it won’t last now Steve Jobs is gone,
Strange that out of the 60 million that sold six years ago there hasn’t been any reports of iPod nanos causing any fires yet! Still better safe than sorry apple!
