Monday will be a mostly dry day with sunny spells and temperatures of up to 19 degrees – but conditions are set to turn more autumn-like over the coming days, according to Met Éireann.
While Monday is expected to feature just a few isolated showers, cloud will increase through the day with more in the way of showers later in the afternoon and evening, mainly in Ulster and Connacht.
Met Éireann said Monday night would be cloudy and damp in western and northwestern counties with scattered outbreaks of rain and drizzle. It is expected to be generally dry elsewhere with clear spells. Lowest temperatures of 10-14 degrees in a light to moderate southwesterly breeze.
As the week progresses the outlook is for “rather unsettled” conditions “with occasional rain or showers. Becoming breezy at times too,” Met Éireann said.
