Ireland's weather will improve again late next week with temperatures soaring back into the 20s.
After a mini-heatwave a weekend of wind and rain is forecast but the downturn in conditions won't last long.
By midweek the mercury will have risen back towards the high teens and Friday should see the return of sizzling heat.
A Met Eireann forecaster said: "Monday will be mainly dry, but it will be changeable for the rest of the week. Temperatures around normal in most areas at first, but cool in the north and northwest, increasing everywhere towards the end of the week.
Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday will all likely see the odd shower but it should become clearer from then onwards.
The forecaster added: "Dry in most areas at first, with some bright or sunny spells, especially in the east. Rain will move in across Atlantic coastal counties later Tuesday, spreading eastwards during the evening and early night, but becoming patchy.
"Max. 14 to 19 degrees, coolest along Atlantic coastal counties and mildest in the east and southeast. Winds mostly light SW'ly, moderate to fresh on Atlantic coasts.
"Brightening up gradually Wednesday, with some sunny spells developing and scattered showers, most of the showers in the north and northwest, where some will be heavy. Max. 13 to 18 C., in light NW'ly breezes.
"A breezy day Thursday, with bright or sunny spells and scattered showers, most frequent in the eastern half of the country, where some will be heavy. Max. 15 to 18 or 19 Celsius, coolest on northern and eastern coasts, in moderate to fresh north to northeast winds.
"Current indications are that Friday will be mostly dry and the weekend will be more mixed, with some scattered showers, but good dry periods also. Warmer, with temperatures in the high teens to low 20s, with mostly light variable winds."
