Dublin will be hit with thunder and hail at the end of this week as the last of the good weather finally fades.
Today will be damp and blustery with outbreaks of rain throughout the day, most heavy and thundery with temperatures of 15C.
Tonight will be dry and clear with temperatures as low as 2C filling the skies as showers begin to die out from the day.
Elsewhere, some counties are in the middle of a 20-hour weather warning for rainfall.
Wicklow, Cavan, Donegal, Galway, Leitrim, Mayo, Sligo, Clare, Cork, Kerry and Waterford are under this warning from 4pm yesterday until midday today.
Met Eireann warn: "This evening, overnight and Wednesday morning spells of heavy rain moving eastwards over Ireland will give 25 to 40 mm of rain and a risk of localised flooding. Highest amounts in the southwest of the country and in mountainous areas."
Here's how the rest of the week is looking according to Met Eireann.
Tomorrow: "Thursday will bring a mix of sunshine and showers. After a crisp and sunny start, showers will develop from late morning. Some of the showers will be heavy with hail and possibly thundery too. Light southeast or variable breezes. Top temperature of 12 degrees.
Friday: "Many places will have a dry and bright day on Friday with sunny spells. However, showers will likely affect parts of Leinster, northwest Connacht and west Ulster during the morning, but it should become dry in most areas through the afternoon and evening. Top temperatures of 12 to 14 degrees. Light to moderate northerly winds will be fresh at times in the south, strong and gusty on southern coasts. Largely dry with a mix of cloud and clear spells on Friday night. The odd light shower is possible in western and northern coastal areas. Lows of 4 to 8 degrees. Some patches of mist and fog may form in the light to moderate north to northwest breezes."
Saturday: "Dry and bright in many areas at first on Saturday with sunny spells, once early mist and fog patches clear but wet and windy weather looks likely to spread from the northeast during the day, although there is still some uncertainty in the exact timing. Cloud will thicken from the northeast and rain will develop in parts of Ulster and Leinster. It will become cloudy further south and west also, with rain arriving there too, possibly overnight. Heavy falls are likely, and there is potential for flooding. Northwesterly winds will be moderate to fresh over land, strong to gale force at the coasts. Highest temperatures of 11 to 13 degrees."
Sunday: "Heavy rain looks likely to become increasingly confined to Munster and south Leinster during Sunday, with drier conditions developing further north. It will remain windy with blustery northerly winds. Highs of 10 to 14 degrees."
Early next week: "Current indications suggest a brief window of a drier more settled spell on Monday, but turning more unsettled again from Tuesday onwards."
