Its a cloudy morning here in north Longford with occasional sunny spells. 14c which is great. Looking forward to the spell of good weather, however long it lasts. It will be great to get a bit of sun and warmth after the cold and indeed the wet.

Sky to my west in D16.

sky to my east in D16.

Wonder what will win out for the rest of the day

Supercell · 22-05-2026 09:31AM

Fair conditions here, Wicklow mountains doing their thing. Already 19.1, could be a very warm day if the sea breeze doesn't kick in

Dull as ditchwater to the south of the Wicklow mountains for similar obvious reasons with mist and a temperature of just 13.2c atm

appledrop · 22-05-2026 11:07AM

Very dull and overcast in Dublin but warm, if sun comes out it will be roasting😎

DOCARCH · 22-05-2026 11:26AM

Very nice in SCD. In Backrock at the moment. Hazy sunshine and car thermo saying 21c.

highdef · 22-05-2026 11:44AM

If it wasn't for the fresh breeze, I'd describe it as very mild and mostly cloudy in Trim, Meath. But that nagging wind pares thing back somewhat to a borderline cool/mild feel.

Kutebride · 22-05-2026 01:10PM

Overcast in Dublin yesterday. Experienced no rain although radar visibly had some passing over. Blue skies appeared before dusk. Lovely n mild (though felt humid earlier in day)

Cloudly mostly today so far in Meath. Warm. Sun behind clouds but I see rain approaching on radar. Boo.

19⁰ Meath

pauldry · 22-05-2026 01:57PM

18c in Sligo n cloudy with a bit of hazy brightness. 11c higher than last Sunday. Rain expected in evening so 16c by then. Already 27c today in England. 32.8c is attainable there in next 4 or 5 days.

Gonzo · 22-05-2026 02:01PM

not a great day here in Meath, cloudy and rain has arrived. Not enough to properly wet the ground so far but those rain drops are big.

Storm 10 · 22-05-2026 02:38PM

Cool in Galway dark sky all morning rain approaching from the West 14 degrees

Fabulous picture.

It's like The Creator is talking as in those old movies …

"AND THERE WILL BE SUN " !

Dazler97 · 22-05-2026 03:55PM

Home from hospital over the weekend was warm leaving Dublin 20c but I'll be back on in carrick at 15c , warmest days over the weekend for Dublin so I'm missing out on that but it's the sun I'm after not the heat per say , vitamin D is always a good thing to boost the mood 😀 hopefully the warm days continue into next week , was due to go Canada on Tuesday but even there doesn't look as good as here so maybe a blessing in disguise 😀, hope everyone is well and enjoy the heat hopefully this is 1st of many warm settled spells to come between now and September

Supercell · 22-05-2026 04:12PM

First day above 21C here since October 06th , see breeze holding things back a bit but its glorious outside. Currently 21.2C which is the high of the day.

Cluedo Monopoly · 22-05-2026 04:13PM

There is some amount of grass growth over the past week with the return of the rain and higher temps. Looking forward to the weekend.

pauldry · 22-05-2026 05:43PM

No good weather in NW yet. Also North wind next week means our heat will last a day.

mykrodot · 22-05-2026 07:59PM

I'm surprised at the temperatures being spoken about for the weekend and beyond by Met Eireann. I am going to the Blaskets over the weekend YR Weather are giving the temperatures for Dunquin and the Blaskets to be no higher than 14 degrees on Sunday, likewise my weather app on my phone says the same. Dingle no higher than 17 degrees.

I checked Mullingar and Dublin just to get a broader picture, they're predictated to be 21 degrees max on Sunday. Yet ALL I'm hearing all day long on radio is temperatures of 26 degrees. Will anywhere get these highs?

KanyeSouthEast · 22-05-2026 10:05PM

just back from a week away with work. Jesus the hype on this heatwave is insane. Pretty much the whole drive home from the airport (cloudy sometimes wet 14/15 degrees) was non stop heatwave heatwave heatwave from moronic djs hello radio nova. Hopefully it delivers especially tomorrow and Sunday when people are off work. It’s dull low cloud and about 12 degrees tonight.

You’re looking at coastal spots which will always be cooler and take something truly exceptional to get to those heights in the heart of summer (won’t happen in May, sea temps too cool).

Any temps that high will be around Monday or Tuesday and localised to the usual hot spots like Shannon Airport car park. Most will be a good bit lower. Context is important which is always lost in media.

Mr.CoolGuy · 22-05-2026 11:20PM

According to Met Eireann it will peak in Cork City next week at 16 degrees. Clonmel is down as 25.

Supercell · 23-05-2026 06:52AM

Oh what a beautiful morning…time for a run

Manc-Red_ · 23-05-2026 06:55AM

Morning Ireland!

appledrop · 23-05-2026 09:57AM

We really couldn't get a more stunning morning than that. People of Ireland, the land of rain and cold are we ready😎🍹🏖🌞🌡

OldRio · 23-05-2026 10:19AM

Cloudy. 13C. Wind cutting that temperature like a knife through butter. Drizzle last night. Best thing I can say is it's not raining.

Leitrim

Oscar Bravo · 23-05-2026 10:29AM

Beautiful morning. Time to get out and enjoy it :)

highdef · 23-05-2026 10:41AM

Cool, overcast, with a lighter to moderate breeze near Ardagh, Longford. 15°. Skies expected to become clearer from late this afternoon, onwards.

pauldry · 23-05-2026 10:53AM

Same as Leitrim but wer 14c n rain holding off for now. A few brightness bits coming through. Will peak at 18c today which I quite like as long as its not windy or rainy. Most people more female than male find this freezing as a husband and father I can testify and worker.

pauldry · 23-05-2026 11:10AM

So weather up to next Wednesday looks very good for midlands South and East. North and West will have one warm day of 23c and a few hours sun here and there. Aside from that cloudy and bright instead of cloudy and dark.

SuperBowserWorld · 23-05-2026 11:32AM

Fantastic morning. Just back from a walk. 🌞

Barnaboy · 23-05-2026 11:38AM

There is going to be a lot of outrage on social media next week. The east coast towns won't even get to 20 degrees. Half of Dublin will be giving out about the 'so called' heatwave.

Here in Bray, we are forecast a high of only 18 on Tuesday while much of western half of country in the mid 20s.

But as others have said, trash media are hyping this event. It will be gorgeous for much of the country but the major population centres won't get these temps.

I'm hoping it will still be very pleasant all the same. Fingers crossed that it's the start of a nice sunny summer. We deserve it after a crap winter and mainly below average May.
