Ireland is set for a dramatic weather twist as more hot weather is set to be followed by excessive rain.
The country has been engulfed in ‘mini-heatwave’ conditions since last week and the stunning weather is forecast to continue over the June bank holiday and right through the first week of June.
Temperatures have been hitting 25C at times alongside wall-to-wall sunshine - and some weather maps show thermometers creeping towards 30C in some areas as we head into the long weekend.
