Get in!

We know, the weather has been a little less than glorious the last week or so.

From running for cover every few minutes when the clouds open to having to wear a jacket to work, we’re not gonna lie – it’s been really tough.

But good news for all of us, as all that messing is due to end very soon.

Yes, get ready ladies, because another heatwave is on the way.

As we edge closer to the weekend, temperatures are expected to soar above 20 with Sunday expected to reach above 25C.

According to Met Eireann, this weekend’s weather is set to be absolutely gorgeous, but not before we endure a few bad days.

“A rather dull, damp and breezy start to the day locally,” reads the forecast for today.

“Brightening up through the day however with sunny spells developing.

“Becoming dry too, apart from the odd shower which will feed into northern areas. Less humid than recent days with top temperatures of 15 to 19 degrees.”

With tomorrow and Friday to remain dry but cool, Saturday is when the real magic happens as temperatures head into the 20s.

“Values climbing further into next week with possible heat wave conditions setting in.”

You heard em, stock up on all BBQ goods and your tipple of choice now, and get ready for a glorious weekend.
