Will you head to the beach this weekend?

Good weather is sweeping across the country.

UNSEASONABLY WARM WEATHER is sweeping across Ireland, with long hours of sunshine and above-average temperatures continuing into next week.

Last month’s record high of 25.8°C in Athenry, Co Galway marked one of the warmest Aprils on record, and forecasters say the settled conditions are likely to stay for a little longer.

This weekend is set to reach highs of up to 26 degrees today and 24 degrees tomorrow. 

As the bout of good weather stretches onwards, today we’re asking you: Will you head to the beach this weekend?
