Met Eireann has forecast a major change in conditions this week coming as persistent and thundery downpours arrive in off the Atlantic coast from Monday.
It looks as if the week ahead will be a washout with temperatures lowering and the weekend looking to follow suit with rain and thunder due.
This evening will be dry for much of the night with clear spells nationwide however as the night goes on, thicker clouds will move in from the west with patchy rain and drizzle developing along Atlantic coastal counties by morning.
