Ireland is set to experience unsettled weather next week after temperatures hit 20C this weekend.
The outlook for the June bank holiday is unsettled as it stands, according to Met Eireann's long-range forecast.
Weather warnings for rain and thunderstorms are not being ruled out, with changeable conditions expected on any given day.

However, the good news is that the following week will bring higher temperatures and drier conditions.
This is in line with the usual 'Leaving Cert weather' that brings sunny spells in the second week of June.
Here is Met Eireann's 30-day forecast:
Week 1: May 30 to June 5
Week 1 is signalled to be mostly unsettled as recent high pressure shifts westwards allowing for cooler air from the north to be pulled southwards over Ireland along with showery conditions.
Temperatures will likely be below normal for much of the country, especially the north, east and midlands. In this set up, below average rainfall amounts are expected over much of the country, however, there will be localised higher amounts due to some heavy showers with possible thundery downpours.
Rainfall warnings for intensity over short periods as well as possible thunderstorm warnings could be required.
Week 2: June 6 to June 12
Week 2 is signalled to be more settled as high pressure looks set to move back over the country with increasing temperatures.
Much of the southwestern half of the country will likely have above average temperatures with more normal temperatures for the time of year elsewhere. Rainfall amounts are expected to be below normal throughout the country. With these settled conditions, mist and fog during the nights are the most likely hazards.
Week 3: June 13 to June 19
For Week 3, there is a less clear signal with high pressure likely to lose its influence and for no further high or low pressure systems to dominate. There is a signal for milder than average conditions over much of the country as well as average or below average rainfall.
Week 4: June 20 to June 26
Similar to Week 3, Week 4 shows no signal of our weather being dominated by either high or low pressure. However, milder than average temperatures are expected to persist. Much of the country will likely have around average rainfall amounts though it could be a bit higher in parts of the northwest.
