The prediction of a heatwave return for Ireland has been dented as Met Éireann tells the public to expect some 'intense' weather.
Thundery conditions have persisted over much of the country this week with very warm and humid conditions accompanied by thundery rain showers .
Met Éireann has forecast some intense downpours in parts of the midlands and west especially during the afternoon and evening, with spot flooding bringing with it a chance of hail this Tuesday.
