TEMPERATURES ARE SET to hit up to 22 degrees over the weekend but don’t throw on the shorts just yet – it’s going to be a bit of a mixed bag with heavy rain and thundery downpours also making an appearance.
The sunny weather looks set to begin this evening with dull skies becoming bright and sunny and temperatures hitting up to 17 degrees.
Unfortunately it’s not all rosy from here in – the rain is going to sneak in tonight and tomorrow morning will start wet and cloudy.
Met Eireann is forecasting “widespread heavy rain and a risk of thundery downpours leading possibly to localised flooding”.
But don’t give up hope – it looks set to improve as the day goes on and Sunday sounds beautiful:
The day will become warm with temperatures rising to between 18 and 21 degree in southeasterly breezes.
The bad news is that Sunday isn’t perfect – with heavy thundery showers breaking over Munster and Connacht in the afternoon (but they will die away towards night).
The good news is that the sun isn’t disappearing – with temperatures set to hit up to 22 degrees on Monday.

Whether his clear infatuation led him to harass her or not, why does she need trial by twitter?
@Johnhunky Dory: She didn’t, he volunteered his apology.
What an https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=no6-vsHgHJg !!!!!!!!!!
I was just getting to like Rick and Morty……
@ForeverFeel1ng: oh.. My reading was that he gave a no name apology for previous behaviour and she asked for more
@1in10arelefties: men don’t report or discuss their harassment. But as men are more often in a position of power it stands to reason that they are more likely to abuse that power.
We definitely need to address the double standards though. Women don’t even realise they are being sexist so often.
I don’t understand why she had to do that over twitter? Why not take a better position and do it in person than potentially invoke the twitter mob to harass and accuse Dan of everything under the sun?
@Shannon Mcg: I would say it’s revenge ..he harassed her and now it’s his turn .. Difference is though she was harassed by one person whereas he has the Twitter mob after him now ..Some would say he deserves though ..
@Shannon Mcg: I am just assuming here, but as this was already put to Harmon in private & he admits to disregarding the sentiment perhaps she thought, in the current climate, she might get a bit of traction going public, trial by twitter route. What is positive is that Harmon addressed his wrong doing head on & as such received forgiveness. With everything that has been going on unspoken for so long coming out now this is the first story with any sort of positive outcome.
Apology accepted aside, he’s now twitter guilty and this won’t be the end of his troubles
@Johnhunky Dory: he created rick & morty. He probably doesnt care that much. He has a cult following.
@Johnhunky Dory: he’s not twitter guilty he’s just guilty and owning it and apologizing for it. She had to put up with it for over two years but hey who cares about that!
Jesus surely these apologies should go on in private?
@Free comment ratings: nope everything needs to be public knowledge these days…
@Free comment ratings: like a confession box perhaps where you can say sorry for anything you do and go back out to do it again. Yeah. Doesn’t work.
@Free comment ratings: no it’s important other men realise that this type of behaviour is not acceptable. How would they know that if it’s all hush hush?
Very curious if this was the reason he got fired just before Community Season 4?? There was never a clear answer why that happened and he got rehired for Season 5 after the quality of the writing suffered.
Hating is easy, forgiveness is hard. Fair play.
I watched a bit of Rick and Morty and found it to be absolute garbage. I don’t understand why people like it so much.
@Irish Patriot: TV shows are made to suit everyone
@Darragh Ó Tuathail: God I’d hate to meet the kind of person that r&m is made for :-)
@Irish Patriot: I’m pretty sure we don’t want to meet you either
@Irish Patriot: I thought the same but i gave it a few episodes and grew to love it. It’s actually very clever and original.
@The Dude: Maybe I didn’t give it a fair shot, just thought it wasn’t really funny. Each to their own I guess. I don’t think we should start putting r&m fans into camps or anything like that.
@Irish Patriot: each to their own maybe that’s why it’s a cult. The majority of tv, I can’t find funny or good never was much of a Simpson’s or family guy etc fan but when I was introduced to Rick n Morty loved the piss take it does of everything we have or goes on around us in life. It’s humor is fast and constant in pace and style from start to finish in every episode. If you didn’t like’back to the future’ you mightn’t get this type of humor.
Kafka would’a loved this.
This is good to see. He owned up to what he did and she accepted his apology. Hopefully now, other talented people who acted inappropriately ( but not illegally) can do the same, their forgiveness be accepted and they can continue doing what they are good at.
Ah Cormac you must be a Harmontown listener me too man I’m 145 episodes in Dan is a f*cking genius
What a sociopathic creep, disgusting obscene behaviour!
God dam he better finish rick and morty season 4…. or else.
have your say
