IT’S SET TO be a rather warm weekend ahead with both sunny spells and rain showers ahead.

Met Éireann says today will be mainly dry with sunny spells, but that a few isolated showers may develop in the late afternoon and evening. 

Highest temperatures are to range between 15 and 19 degrees today. 

Tonight is due to be dry with long clear spells. However, some patches of mist and fog will develop in the near calm conditions. 

Tomorrow morning, any patchy mist and fog is expected to clear to give way to a largely dry day with spells of sunshine. 

Cloud is to increase from the west during the evening.

It’s forecast to be quite warm tomorrow with highest temperatures ranging between 16 and 20 degrees. 

Tomorrow night will start off dry before rain and drizzle is expected to develop in the west and northwest around midnight, spreading eastwards to most areas overnight. 

Some patches of mist or fog early this morning.🌫️
