The weekend weather: It’s not a TOTAL scorcher but we’ll take it

Now, we know everyone is holding out for another heatwave (fingers crossed), and this weekend isn't quite the scorcher we all want, but we'll take it nonetheless. 

We're going to see the best weather from Friday to Sunday of this week, but Met Éireann says it will be changeable again after that.

Friday will be mainly dry, "with sunny spells, but some scattered showers will occur in parts of the east and southeast.

"Max. 14 to 17 Celsius generally, but 18 or 19 C in southern coastal areas."

Saturday will be mostly the same, however it will become "cloudy along the west and southwest coasts, with a little patchy drizzle or light rain possible later in the day.

"Maximum temperatures 15 to 20 Celsius, highest in the eastern half of the country."

And Sunday promises to be dry again (hurrah!) with bright, sunny spells, "but with a good deal of cloud, bringing a few patches of drizzle." Damn.

"Max. 16 to 20 Celsuis, in a freshening southerly breeze."

We're just going to have to roll with it, ladies.
