Temperatures are set to soar to highs of 16C today - but a big change is on the way over the Easter weekend.
Conditions will be warm and dry with plenty of sunny spells on Thursday, with only occasional patchy rain affecting some areas.
For Thursday Met Eireann say: "It will be a warm and mainly dry day with a mix of cloud and hazy sunshine. Highs of 15 to 16 degrees and light to moderate east to southeast breezes.
"Tonight will be mainly dry, apart from a little drizzle, mist and fog. No frost with a good deal of cloud cover and some clear spells also. Lows of 6 to 8 degrees in mainly light southeasterly breezes."
However experts warned that as we move into the Easter weekend more "mixed and changeable" weather is expected with "longer spells of rain on way also".
It will also be a lot cooler than recent days, with highs of just 13C on Sunday.
A forecaster added: "Friday will be a mild and often cloudy day with scattered outbreaks of rain and drizzle, but some drier and brighter interludes will occur at times too.
"Top temperatures will range 13 to 17 degrees, but a little cooler near southern and western coasts, where mist and fog and patches may linger in light southeast or variable breezes.
"Mostly cloudy on Friday night with further outbreaks of rain and drizzle. Lows of 8 to 11 degrees with light southerly breezes veering southwest to west.
"Mostly cloudy to begin on Saturday with rain or showers, but clearer, drier and brighter intervals will spread from the west for a time. Further cloud and showery rain will, however, extend from the Atlantic again through the late afternoon and evening. Highs of 11 to 15 degrees in light to moderate west to northwest breezes, backing southwest to south later.
"Often cloudy with showers or longer spells of rain, possibly heavy at times, but occasional drier and brighter intervals too. Cooler than recent days with maximum temperatures closer to average at 11 to 13 degrees. Light variable breezes becoming light to moderate northeasterly later."
