Met Eireann has confirmed that Ireland will experience two of the hottest days of the year this week with mid-week set to be a scorcher.
An airflow change will see Wednesday hit highs of 23C with Thursday seeing the whopper temperature burst on the dial also.
Expert Alan O'Reilly from Carlow Weather has also echoed Met Eireann's forecast.
He hinted that a warmer airflow is set to bring dry and hot conditions right up until the weekend.
He wrote: "Warmer air is forecast to move in over Ireland later in the coming [week] and into next weekend. Plenty of dry weather too with low rainfall amounts."
Here's how the next few days are looking according to Met Eireann:
Today: "Cloudy with some bright spells today. Holding dry for much of the day with just patchy drizzle at times. Warm, particularly in sunshine with highs of 20 or 21 degrees. Moderate southerly breezes."
Tonight: "Cloudy tonight with patchy rain and drizzle at times. Relatively mild overnight with lowest temperatures of 13 or 14 degrees with light to moderate southerly winds."
Wednesday: "Tomorrow will start cloudy with rain and drizzle, which will turn patchy through the day with sunshine gradually breaking through in the afternoon. Warm and humid, with temperatures of 20 to 22 degrees, possibly even 23 locally, in moderate southerly breezes."
Thursday: "It will be warm, humid and breezy with scattered outbreaks of rain and drizzle. There will be drier weather across the eastern half of the country with the sun breaking through at times. Afternoon temperatures of 17 to 23 degrees, the higher values in the east and northeast, in a moderate to fresh south to southwest breeze. Atlantic counties will see further rain and drizzle after dark, with the rest of the country staying largely dry. Warm and humid at night."
Friday: "A mostly cloudy start on Friday with patchy rain and drizzle fizzling out through the afternoon and sunny spells developing. Feeling a little fresher with highest temperatures ranging from 15 degrees at coasts of the west to 20 or 21 degrees in the southeast. Winds will be light to moderate westerly becoming variable in direction later."
Next weekend: "Current indications suggest warm weather for next weekend with the best of the sunshine in the east and south."
