Sunshine to break out this afternoon as temperatures reach low 20s

It's set to be a warm and sunny afternoon around Kildare today, and it's just the start of a short period of good weather that is going to sweep the nation.

A misty and overcast morning will bring plenty of drizzly showers, though it will quickly dry up before bright spells start to develop. Winds will be generally light around the country for the entirety of the day, and temperatures will gradually peak to around 19-22 degrees.

This evening will be quite clear, as the sunshine remains strong. Overnight, it will be very humid, and temperatures will remain between 12 and 14 degrees.
