Ireland is set for some stunning weather today which will carry on for the remainder of the weekend before things take a turn.
Met Eireann has forecast a mini-heatwave to hit the country over the coming days as temperatures reach highs of 20 degrees with plenty of sunny spells.
The midlands and the west are to see the best of the conditions, with top temperatures most likely to be reached in these areas. However, it will be slightly cooler in coastal areas.
Things will take a turn on Monday, with the chance of a storm battering Ireland quite likely.
A forecaster said: "Still uncertainty around potential storm Monday into Tuesday. Latest charts continue to show uncertainty over track of storm. However all keep the worst of the storm out in the Atlantic."
Here's a more detailed look at Met Eireann's forecast.
