A weather expert has revealed when heavy showers are due to hit Ireland, however temperatures are set to soar into the high 20s after the wet spell.
Alan O'Reilly of Carlow Weather informed that weather models are continuing to show an "unsettled outlook" from Saturday bringing with it a risk of "heavy showers" in an end to what has been a two-week mini-heatwave of mainly blue skies.
Despite the potentially wet weekend ahead, Mr O'Reilly pointed to some very positive news for the country after that.
