Met Eireann have issued a massive seven-day advisory for Ireland - as the country is set to be baking in late-summer sunshine.
Conditions will result in an average temperature in the day of about 20C, with large spells of sun and very little rainfall over the next week.
The entire month of August is looking really solid weather wise, but the next week in particular will be perfect for breaking out the barbecues or heading along for that post-work pint in the beer garden.

The advisory issued by Met Éireann over the weekend reads: "Ireland will experience a hot spell developing from Wednesday and continuing through the rest of the week and the weekend. Daytime temperatures will widely reach the mid to high twenties. Remaining uncomfortably warm overnight too. Updates will follow."
Some impacts of the weather include: "Heat stress, especially for the more vulnerable of the population, high Solar UV index and extra risk of water related incidents"
The advisory came into effect on Sunday afternoon and runs through until midnight on Monday August 15.
Next week’s Met Eireann forecast for Ireland reads: “On Monday morning, mist and fog patches will clear away from most areas but may linger near some coasts. Otherwise, it will be another dry day for most with long spells of sunshine and with just the chance of a shower in the far northwest. Warm with top temperatures ranging from 19C to 24C in just light southwest or variable breezes.
“Long spells of hazy summer sunshine through the day on Tuesday with top temperatures ranging a warm 21C to 24C in light southwest or variable winds. Dry with clear spells on Tuesday night. Mist and fog will develop in places as winds fall light. Minimum temperatures of 11C to 14C degrees.
“Wednesday will be another dry calm and mostly fine day with prolonged spells of sunshine - any early morning mist/fog will burn of quickly. Warmer again with top values of 22C to 26C. Long clear spells overnight with some mist or fog developing once again in mostly light winds. Very mild with minima of 11C to 15C."
