Met Eireann has forecast unusually warm temperatures over the coming days - but has warned they will be accompanied by a thunderstorm deluge.
The national forecaster says the mercury could reach near 20C this weekend, while next week’s weather “will have slightly higher than typical temperatures for the time of year”.
Don’t put away your umbrella just yet however, as there will be heavy rain at times, with a chance of thundery downpours and spot flooding.
