According to Met Éireann, areas across the country will predominantly enjoy a dry and sunny spell this Saturday, though isolated showers might crop up in some regions. Whilst the weekend shall remain comparatively warm and delightful, stormy downpours with bouts of hail are forecasted to disrupt the peace come Sunday night.

Saturday is poised to see varying temperatures, ranging from a mild 16 degrees in the northeast climbing to 23 degrees in the southeastern regions, complete with gentle to moderate wind flows engaging in a west to southwest dance. Expect to nestle into a dry night ensconced in increasing cloud cover. However, one may notice faint drizzles or sporadic rain blossoming in the southwestern quarters towards dawn with the mercury dipping to a low of 8 to 13 degrees.

A typical Sunday might look like an amalgamation of hazy sunshine and cloudy spurts, although light drizzles and rain patches can’t be ruled out in the southern and western fringes. But as evening settles, the showers will veer towards the southern and western expanses becoming considerably heavier and stormy, with top temperatures believed to fluctuate between 20 to 25 degrees spurred on by a sprightly to robust southeasterly wind.

There is a high probability of witnessing widespread stormy downpours on Sunday night which may culminate into extended rain spells accompanied by hail and localised flooding. A respite is expected to ensue over the western parts of the country by sunrise.

The night will embody humidity, with temperatures hovering between 12 to 17 degrees and gentle to occasionally brisk southerly winds shifting towards the west. Watch out for a wet start when Monday rolls in, especially over the eastern extremes, with showers and potential thunderstorms on the prowl and a continued risk of hail and local flash floods that are likely to disperse into the Irish Sea as the day progresses.

Expect predominantly dry and sunny vistas sprinkled with sparse showers over the west, with the day’s high forecasted to reach between 18 to 22 degrees. As for Monday night, the environment will lean towards mild and humid, with clouds and occasional showers creeping in from the Atlantic over the western expanse.

The forecast suggests predominantly dry weather with areas further east experiencing periods of clear skies. In the presence of moderate to brisk, gusty winds from the south, the temperature is not expected to dip below a range of 12 to 16 degrees. Tuesday’s weather will start with a fair amount of cloud cover, accompanied by mild rain and drizzle, which will become less frequent as the morning progresses.
