The June Bank Holiday weekend of 2016 brought with it one of the most glorious spells of weather of the entire summer, but, unfortunately, there will be no repeat this time around.
There will be plenty of sunny spells between now and Monday, but they will be interspersed with a lot of showers which will become heavy on frequent occasions throughout the weekend.
According to Met Éireann, Friday will be bright and mainly dry with temperatures reaching highs of 18 degrees.
Although there will be showers, they will tend to be light, at least until Friday night, when they’ll start to become heavy on the Atlantic seaboard before spreading across the country on Saturday.
Saturday and Sunday will be pretty similar as sunny spells mix with heavy showers and conditions will feel cooler on Saturday night, when temperatures will drop to as low as five degrees.
After a dry start to the day, heavy showers will continue throughout Sunday ahead of another cool night on Sunday night and after a damp, misty start to Monday, the weather will gradually improve throughout the day, with fresh westerly winds and temperatures hitting no higher than the mid teens.
The outlook for next week is for more unsettled weather with plenty of showers, although temperatures are set to improve heading towards the weekend.
If your plans involve being outdoors this weekend, best prepare for all eventualities.
