After weeks of on and off sunshine, it looks like we're finally going to have a full weekend of prolonged nice weather and it's about time.

Met Éireann looks very promising indeed for Saturday and Sunday but to get there, it seems the weather gods are offering us a deal - put up with a bit more rain beforehand and eventually we'll be rewarded. We'll take it.
Friday is set to bring 'patchy rain with some heavy bursts' but with temperatures reaching 23 degrees in some places, it's not all bad. Then, the moment we've been waiting for as Saturday arrives with highs of 22 degrees and 'long sunny spells.' Not enough for ya? Read on...
It looks like Sunday is when this week's weather will hit its peak when it will be 'dry with good spells of sunshine.' Met Éireann say that it will be 'a warm day with highs of 20 to 24 degrees, perhaps a degree or two lower along the east coast in a light easterly breeze.'
