Another week of high temperatures is rolling out, according to Met Eireann.
And it’s being warned that the weather may lead to heat stress and uncomfortable conditions at night.
Forecaster Joanna Donnelly says values will be steadily climbing from today; “So Monday we’ve got 23, tomorrow probably 24, the next day 25 each day’s going to get a little bit warmer out to Wednesday/Thursday, then we’re going to have change but it’s going to get hotter, day-on-day warmer and warmer weather coming we’ve got high pressure in charge, dry light winds, beautiful weather”.
