THE MILD WEATHER looks set to continue this week with temperatures rising to 17 degrees in parts of the country today. 

According to Met Éireann, temperatures of between 13 and 17 degrees are expected with sunny spells in parts of the east and south of the country. 

It will, however, be cooler on eastern and southern coasts due to breezes and lingering mist and fog. Light to moderate southeasterly winds will be fresh along Atlantic coasts.

Tonight will remain dry except for a light drizzle along the west Connaught coast. Minimum temperatures of 1 to 4 degrees are expected in parts of the country tonight while, near Atlantic coasts, temperatures will drop to between 6 to 8 degrees. 

Similar weather is expected tomorrow and on Wednesday, Met Éireann has said, with more sunny spells and maximum temperatures of 11 to 15 degrees in light to moderate southeasterly breezes. 

Although the week looks set to be mostly mild, Met Éireann has forecast changeable and unsettled weather towards the week’s end.

    Just fantastic, roll on summer.
    No more going to work and coming home in the dark ( Unless you are a shift worker).
    Long evenings , bbq’s , hearing the children out playing , watching nature in her finery.
    Bring it on.

    @liam ward60: you understand what forecasting is and that the journal isn’t the source right? Maybe pay for TV and watch the weather for a more in-depth look

    We are in the midst of Accelerated Global Warming and it’s only going to get hotter….. the Artic Ice has almost disappeared…. Antarctic now melting at 8 times the rate it was 20 years ago…… Glaciers 50% gone. We are factually experiencing the 6th mass extinction….. no ice to cool the planet means heating will continue without brakes.

    It’s just called St. Stephens Green, not St Stephens Green Park. The word Green is in lieu of park.
