Met Eireann have updated their weather forecast as the public are warned to “make the most of this week” before the weather makes a drastic change at the end of September.
Tuesday will be mostly cloudy with mist, fog and drizzle in the south as rain will slowly move into parts of Ulster and Connacht across the afternoon and evening.
Temperatures of around 22C will drop to as low as 7C overnight with a band of heavy rain coming to the north and east.

Overview: “Mixed for the rest of the week, with rain or showers at times. Daytime temperatures in the mid to high teens.”
Tuesday night: “The band of rain and drizzle will move eastwards across the country tonight, heaviest and most persistent in the north and later the east. Clear spells and isolated showers will extend from the northwest to most areas overnight and temperatures will fall to between 7 and 11 degrees, but cloud and patchy rain will linger in the southeast and temperatures here will not fall below 13 to 15 degrees. Patches of mist and fog will form in light and variable winds.”
