When will Ireland’s heatwave end?

According to Met Éireann, it will remain warm for the rest of the weekend, with dry intervals.

Today (Friday, July 24) will see mist linger in places before giving rise to a warm and sunny day.

Most of the country will stay dry; however, some thunderstorms will develop in the afternoon over the midlands, west and south. The national forecaster has warned that some thunderstorms will bring heavy downpours and a risk of spot flooding.

Temperatures will reach between 27 to 30 degrees, with values to fall to 14 to 17 degrees tonight.

Tonight, showers will linger in the west, south-west and south before clearing to leave a dry night with clear spells.
