A weather warning has been issued ahead of Ireland’s heatwave today

by

If you were an early riser, you may have caught some of the rain that was lashing down this morning, so it may come as a surprise that a wether warning has been issued today because of the heat.

Met Éireann have issued the warning for Dublin, Carlow, Kildare, Wicklow and Meath, as temperatures are set to reach 28 C.

However, the day will not kick off with sunshine, as heavy cloud cover and rainfall covers most of the country. 

'Scattered showers this morning will turn heavy with the risk of some thundery downpours before clearing northeastwards.'

'Later it will become mostly dry over much of the country with sunny spells developing and just a few scattered showers remaining, mainly in the north and northeast.'

'It will be very warm and humid with top temperatures reaching 22 to 28 degrees, highest in parts of Leinster.'

So hopefully this rainy tropical weather will make way for a bright and sunny day. 

Just remember to wear a hat and sunscreen with this warning in place.
