The weather for this week looks set to be generally dry, settled and fine, though with a chance of some showers, according to Met Éireann.

It will be rather cloudy across Connacht and Ulster today (Monday, June 16), with the chance of a few showers in Atlantic coastal areas this morning. It will be a dry day in Leinster and Munster with spells of hazy sunshine.

Highest temperatures will be 17° to 22° in moderate to fresh south-west winds.

Tonight, scattered outbreaks of rain and drizzle will push in from the Atlantic and spread south-eastwards over the country. It will be a mild night, with lowest temperatures of 11° to 14° in moderate south-west winds.

Tomorrow (Tuesday, June 17), patchy rain and drizzle will clear south-eastwards in the morning as dry and bright weather extends from the north-west. The rest of the day will be dry and bright with spells of warm sunshine. Highest temperatures will be 16° to 21° in moderate south-west to west winds.

It will be generally dry tomorrow night but there is the chance of patchy rain in north Connacht and west Ulster for a time. Lowest temperatures will be 9° to 12° in light southwest or variable winds.

It will be dry with mostly clear skies on Wednesday night. Lowest temperatures should be 9° to 12° in light southeast or variable winds.

Thursday (June 19) will see mainly dry and warm weather across the country with lots of summer sunshine. Maximum temperatures will generally range from 20° to 24° but it will be a little cooler on eastern coasts due to an onshore easterly breeze.
