A dry and bright day with plenty of sunny spells is ahead for Dublin this St Patrick's Day with temperatures forecast to hit 12C.
The dry conditions are set to continue into the weekend as pressure remains high keeping them around.
That doesn't mean the sun will always be out though and there's going to be some cloudy patches although they will be mostly dry too.
As for early next week, we'll continue to get more of the dry days with sunshine until the middle of the week when there's rain coming in from the Atlantic and it will make its way across Ireland.
Met Eireann says: "Patches of mist and fog will clear this morning, leaving a dry and bright day with sunny spells. Highest temperatures of 11 or 12 degrees in a light to moderate northwest breeze.
"Becoming mainly cloudy tonight but remaining dry with just occasional clear spells. Some patchy mist and fog will develop towards morning in a light northwest breeze. Lowest temperatures of 7 or 8 degrees."
Here's the forecast for the rest of the week:
