With barbecues, ice-creams, and outdoor drinks seeing a rise in demand this Sunday, the inevitable sense of pessimism about next week's weather might kick in.
Fear not though because Met Eireann is forecasting that next week will also match today's highs of 22 degrees in parts of the country.
In terms of next week's warmest day, Tuesday is shaping up to match today's warm conditions with 22 degrees being forecast in certain areas.
As for the overall forecast, next week is expected to stay dry and warm for much of the country for the start of the week. However, conditions will turn more unsettled from mid-week onwards.
In terms of the next few days, here's what's in store...
Sunday night
A mainly dry and clear night is expected with light southerly breezes and patchy mist and fog.
For those living in the northwest, there's a risk of some lingering showers while those in the southern coasts may get some patches of coastal mist or fog.
Monday morning and afternoon
Monday will start with warm, dry and hazy sunshine. The western coastal counties will experience some cloudier conditions with some drizzle possible near coasts, especially in the afternoon and evening.
The highest temperatures will range between 18 to 21 degrees generally, a little cooler along the south coast with moderate southerly breezes.
Monday night
A dry night with clear spells is expected across the country. It's set to stay cloudy in the west with outbreaks of rain and drizzle skirting western coasts.
In terms of temperature, a very warm night is on the horizon with the mercury ranging between 10 to 13 degrees.
Tuesday morning and afternoon
A cloudy and dull start to the day is expected over the western half of the country with some rain and drizzle. Highest temperatures of 13 to 17 degrees are expected too.
However, it's set to be warmer elsewhere with warm and bright conditions on the east coast with a good deal of dry weather and hazy sunny spells, with just scattered showers.
Highest temperatures in the eastern half of the country of 18 - 22 degrees inland, cooler at the coast.
Tuesday night
Cloudy with outbreaks of rain over western coastal counties. It's set to be drier further east with clear spells.
Midweek
Met Eireann state that there's a degree of uncertainty at the minute due to the "progress of a depression northwards over the country looks set to bring rain. Current indications suggest outbreaks of rain will push in over the southern half of the country in the morning, spreading to all areas through the afternoon with a clearance moving into the south by the evening."
Despite these poor conditions - relative to the most recent days - the highest temperatures are still expected to range between 19 to 20 degrees in Ulster and Connacht, 15 and 17 degrees elsewhere.
The outlook for Thursday and beyond is for unsettled conditions with showers at times.
