IRELAND is set for more sunny spells as the mercury rises – before a major switch this weekend.
Sizzling temperatures could climb as high as 22C on Saturday before rain and thunder take over just 24 hours later.
Met Eireann's Siobhan Ryan said: "It's a good news story, really out until the end of the weekend.
"High pressure dominating our weather, lots of dry conditions, light winds and temperatures improving day on day with more in the way of sunshine too."
But there will be a turn by next week.
Siobhan warned: "Later this weekend, there are indications that conditions will become more unsettled."
The forecaster said today will bring a "good deal of dry weather" with overall cloudy conditions and warm spells of hazy sunshine.
She said: "More in the way of sunshine getting through more readily both for Friday, and indeed for Saturday temperatures widely climbing into the low 20s."
It will be a "brighter day" for the west and northwest.
Siobhan said: "Best values for the midlands, east, the north midlands too.
"A lot of dry weather. It will be practically dry country wide, with mix a cloud and mild or warm spells of late spring sunshine with the brighter skies likely for the midlands, east and southeast."
Sea fog may develop in coastal appears and the east coast.
