Met Eireann forecasts sunny spells for Dublin before grim August Bank Holiday change

Dublin will enjoy a couple of days of mostly dry weather but a grim change is on the way.

Met Eireann has warned that unsettled weather will dominate towards the end of the week as Ireland will be hit by heavy rain over the August Bank Holiday weekend. However, temperatures will remain in the high teens to low 20s over.

Today will be mostly dry with the occasional sunny intervals but light showers are possible later in the day. The highest temperatures will be around 18 or 19 degrees.
