It's a fine morning in Dublin but that's set to change with Met Eireann warning of heavy rain and blustery conditions.
Today will be mostly dry and sunny with highs of 18 to 19C. Temperatures will remain high tonight, not dropping below 12C, however there is a chance of some overnight showers, which are set to increase on Friday.
And it's bad news for Electric Picnic fans as that rain is set to get heavier throughout the weekend with "strong and cyclonic" winds predicted to hit on Sunday. Here's how things are looking over the next few days.

Any mist or fog will quickly clear this morning to leave a mostly dry and sunny day but patchy cloud will bubble up at times and isolated showers are possible. Highest temperatures of 18 or 19C with light to moderate easterly breezes.
Friday
Tomorrow will be mostly cloudy with showery outbreaks of rain increasing through the morning and likely to become heavy at times. Highest temperatures of 19 to 21C in light variable breezes.
The rain will turn heavy in places on Friday night although it will remain reasonably warm with temperatures between 12 and 15C.
Saturday
There will be a cloudy start to Saturday morning with rain persisting in part of Ulster and Leinster throughout the day. Highest temperatures of 14 to 18C in light to moderate southeast or variable winds. Met Eireann say there is still some uncertainty as to how windy it will get on Saturday night but add: "Generally it looks like wet and blustery conditions will extend from the south across the country on Saturday night with some heavy falls of rain at times."
Sunday
Rain will be heavy at times although it will gradually clear northwards on Sunday morning and this will be followed by sunny spells and a few showers in the afternoon. Highest temperatures of 15 to 20C, warmest in the east. Fresh to strong and gusty cyclonic variable winds will become southerly and moderate during the afternoon.
The wet and blustery conditions will return on Sunday night although temperatures will remain mild at between 10 and 15C.
