Met Éireann

Will it rain on your parade? Not this week!

Say goodbye to umbrellas: warm, sunny spells predicted for Ireland!

The weather forecast from Met Éireann for the upcoming week has greeted us with delightful news— a wave of dry and sunny conditions is rolling in across Ireland! Tuesday night promises to clear away that pesky patchy rain, making way for an overcast sky. Winds are expected to remain light, and temperatures will drop to a mild 11 to 15 degrees. Not half bad for a night out or cozying up at home!

Mark Bowe from Met Éireann has declared that high pressure is taking full charge, leading us into a fantastic day of summer vibes. The mercury is set to rise, and if you’re wondering about the best plans, it’s a great time to organize a picnic in the park or perhaps a barbecue with friends. After all, the forecasters have promised “dry and fine” days, which is perfect for both sunseekers and football fans alike!

Speaking of which, you can expect perfect conditions for the All-Ireland senior football championship final. Fans descending on the capital for the showdown between Armagh and Galway are in luck; sunny spells will dominate the day, and temperatures could soar to a sizzling 23 degrees! Just a hint of cloud might pass by, but it appears Mother Nature is set to play nice.

But don't let your guards down just yet! As delightful as this weather sounds, Met Éireann warns that rain is poised to make a comeback. So enjoy the sunshine while it lasts! As we dive back into weather updates, it's good to remember that Ireland's weather can be as unpredictable as a cat on a hot tin roof.

The Irish are accustomed to feeling a bit schizo about the weather forecasts - one minute it's beach weather, and the next, it’s raining cats and dogs! But fret not; an optimistic outlook can turn every rainy day into an opportunity for a cozy pub visit instead! Furthermore, did you know that Ireland is known for having an average of 225 rainy days per year? It’s no wonder we take our pint of stout in one hand and an umbrella in the other!
