Ireland is set for an unusually-warm end to January, before we're brought back down to earth with a baltic start to February.
We already know that this week will be lovely, with some even expecting a grand stretch in the evenings as a result of clear skies, sunny weather and temperatures hitting double figures.
But there's some even better news when you take a look at the longer-term forecast from Met Eireann.
Obviously, everything is subject to change, but right now it looks like January will close out in warm fashion.
However, there's a brutal bite back from winter as we hit St Brigid's Day.
Next week (which Met Eireann call week two and runs from January 24 to 31) will see the period of high pressure that's kicking in in the next few days stick around.
A forecaster explains: "The high pressure will be maintained but migrating to the west with a north or northwesterly airflow over the country, however it will still remain a little milder than average in the northwest over the period and drier than average across the country.
"Hazards still look to include fog, however with the more north to northwest airflow on the peripheries of high pressure, usually feeding in brisker breezes and cloudier conditions the frost risk looks to be slightly reduced."
However, February will see things change back to normal, with cold, damp air and the potential for snow to start Spring.
The spokesperson continues: "Week three (January 31 to February 7) will see the overall weakening of high pressure as it pulls further west, with the northwesterly airflow still in place there is a an increase in the risk of precipitation in the northwest with above average values to return there, however further to the south and east, still looks to remain drier than average.
"Temperatures will return to average across the country as a cooler damper air mass is introduced. With this airflow hazards may include wintry showers, mostly in the northwest and an increased risk of frost at night."
