While the rain has put a literal dampener on the recent spell of sunshine that we've all enjoyed, conditions are set to improve over the coming few days.
Met Eireann has said that highs of 23 degrees will be reached on Monday but Saturday (19 degrees) and Sunday (21 degrees) are also sharing up to be quite nice too.
The overall forecast for the coming few days is quite mixed with showers and sunny spells expected over the weekend. However, conditions will become more settled with temperatures increasing.
On that note, here's what the next few days have in store...

The rain will mainly be confined to the southern half of the country but there could be some scattered showers in the northwest.
Friday morning and afternoon
The morning will be cool and cooler with a mixture of cloud and sunny spells.
