Ireland is set to bask in the summer sunshine this week as temperatures remain high with just some isolated showers.
Met Eireann has predicted a largely dry and sunny week. However, temperatures will nose dive during the nights leading to some mist and fog.
The west will see the worst of the conditions as more overcast weather arrives ahead of the bank holiday weekend.
A forecaster said: "The fine settled weather will continue for the coming week with lots of sunny spells and only the odd shower. Easterly winds persisting but easing a little for the next few days. Some cool nights with a risk of fog and light frost."
Here is a more detailed look at this week's forecast.
Today will be largely dry with sunny spells, though a few light showers will develop through the day.
Highest temperatures of 11 to 16 degrees, mildest in the west and coolest in the east, in light to moderate easterly winds.
Tonight will be another mainly dry and clear night apart from isolated showers.
Mist and fog will develop in places in a light, easterly or variable breeze. Quite cold with lowest temperatures of 0 to 4 degrees generally, though a little colder locally in the midlands with a touch of grass frost possible.
