It's the summer time and the weather is fine... Lies! It's going to be wet, windy and wild out there and we're ten minutes away from booking a cheap Ryanair flight and sleeping on a hot beach somewhere. Now Met Éireann is reporting that the week ahead will be "unsettled, with an Atlantic regime dominating" - eh, okay! Here's what to expect from Irish weather this week:
Tonight
Today's rain will clear and it will become largely dry overnight with just isolated showers. Patches of fog will cover the country with some light breezes from the West. Lows of 9 to 11 degrees Celsius.
Tuesday
Atlantic coastal counties will experience down pours throughout the day with the lowest temperatures of 10 to 13 degrees in strengthening south to southeast winds.
Wednesday
This week's Irish weather personality of wet, windy and wild will come to a head today. Rain will be widespread throughout the morning with heavy bursts and strong, gale forces winds across coastal areas. Temperatures will range 16 to 20 degrees.
