Temperatures will reach 22 degrees this weekend but conditions will stay mixed with rain and drizzle forecast.
It will be breezy today with sunny spells and scattered showers during the morning. Cloud will increase through the afternoon with outbreaks of rain developing in the southwest. The rain will move eastwards across the country, turning more persistent in the west and northwest during the evening. Highest temperatures of 15 to 19 degrees are forecast, coolest in the northwest and west, in a moderate to fresh and gusty west to southwest wind.
Tonight will be mild, cloudy and breezy with outbreaks of rain spreading eastwards across the country. Lowest temperatures of 11 to 15 degrees are forecast in a moderate to fresh southerly wind.
Tomorrow will be rather windy with outbreaks of rain and drizzle, heaviest and most persistent during the morning and afternoon, particularly in the north and west, but the rain will become lighter and patchier towards evening with some drier and brighter spells possible further east. Highest temperatures of 17 to 21 degrees in a fresh and gusty southwesterly wind, strong at times near coasts.
Here is Met Eireann's national outlook for the coming days:
Overview
"Mixed with rain or drizzle at times. Breezy or windy at first."
Friday night
"Friday night will start breezy and cloudy with patchy light rain or drizzle. Drier and clearer conditions will gradually spread from the northwest through the night, but some cloud and drizzle may linger near the south coast until morning. Lowest temperatures of 11 to 16 degrees, mildest in the southeast, with a moderate to fresh southwesterly wind easing light to moderate overnight."
Saturday
"Mostly dry apart from a few showers in the west and northwest. Sunny spells at first but becoming cloudier as the day goes on. Highest temperatures of 15 to 22 degrees, coolest in the northwest, with a light to moderate southwesterly wind."
Sunday
"Some uncertainty in the forecast but Sunday will potentially start cloudy with rain, mainly over the north of the country, before becoming drier and brighter later. Highest temperatures of 17 to 22 degrees with a moderate to fresh south to southwest breeze."

Irish tourists warned of extreme 44C heat in Spain, Portugal, and France as Europe faces heatwave
Our community members are treated to special offers, promotions and adverts from us and our partners. You can check out at any time. More info Irish holidaymakers are being warned as an extreme heatwave hits Europe - just as many are preparing for their summer getaways. Despite a rainy and breezy forecast at home in Ireland, popular tourist destinations are set to sizzle with temperatures possibly soaring to 44C due to high pressure dominating much of Europe. And Carlow Weather's Alan O'Reilly has sounded the alarm for Irish tourists visiting three hotspots. He said: "Heading for Spain, Portugal or France this weekend? Prepare for some hot weather, could hit up to 44c in parts of Portugal and Spain and up to 40c in parts of France. Yes I know it's summer and yes these countries do get hot but this is a little early to see these temps and us Irish aren't built for that heat." With Northern Europe caught in an unseasonably early heatwave, experts forecast temperatures will climb even further in the weeks ahead. The French national meteorological service, Meteo France, has issued warnings that such intense heat poses a threat to all, including those in good health. Southern Europe is facing a more dire scenario, with the Greek island of Chios currently in the throes of a fierce wildfire. Residents have been evacuated as the parched island ignited over the weekend. Portugal has already recorded a scorching 40.5C this year, while certain areas in Spain have experienced peaks of over 42C. Wageningen University's environmental systems analysis professor, Bas Amelung, predicts future summer temperatures in favoured holiday spots like Spain, France, Italy, Greece, and Turkey could rise to uncomfortable levels. "Countries such as Spain, France, Italy, Greece and Turkey that currently attract the traditional 'sun and sand' summer tourists are likely to become too hot for comfort in the summer," he warns. "So if a large majority of holidaymakers thinks some European destinations will soon be 'too hot', they may well start adapting, either by going somewhere else in summer or by going to the same place in another season."
