Ireland weather forecast: Met Eireann predict mix of sunshine and showers as summer ends with a bang

The country is set for sunshine and rain as summer tries to make a comeback this weekend.

Met Eireann forecast rain will soon clear from Leinster and Ulster and it'll be a bright and fresh morning.

Passing showers will develop through the day but there will continue to be a good deal of dry weather with some sunshine.

That area is expected to accumulate 20-30mm rainfall.

Northern Ireland will see further pulses of heavy rain until it weakens and moves eastwards on Monday.

Wellies and waterproofs will be called for as rain is expected to fall on those attending the Electric Picnic festival in Stradbally, Co Laois.

Highs of 15 to 17 degrees in moderate westerly breezes.

For those attending the All-Ireland football final between Dublin and Kerry in Croke Park, they will be most likely hit by rain.

Increasing cloud will bring outbreaks of rain to the northern half of the country during the day but more southern counties will continue to remain dry.

Tuesday will be a bright day with occasional showers but a good deal of dry weather as well.
