Ireland is set to sizzle over the coming days as temperatures climb as high as 25 degrees on Friday.
Warm weather with sunny spells in the south and east will be seen this week. However, it will be cloudier in the north and west, with showery outbreaks of rain at times.
Things will become fresher later on Friday as a cold front spreads across the country from the northwest, with somewhat more unsettled conditions for the weekend.
