The sky in Mullingar at 4pm...

Enjoy the sun, while it lasts

This evening promises to be as hot as the day has been, at 21 degrees Celsius, though the breeze is to get a little bit stronger.

That might provide a bit of relief to the heavy, thundery air we’ve had so far today.

Tomorrow is to get warmer as the day goes on, and is predicted to reach a peak of 23 degrees after 6pm.

Thursday will bring more of the same, though it’s to get cloudy in the evening.

Then, on Friday, Saturday and Sunday, according to the YR weather website (yr.no), it’s to get cooler and rainy-er.

So, the message is: enjoy the sun this week because that could be the end of it for a while.
