Warm For Friday But A Little Breezy
Meanwhile Alan O'Reilly from Carlow Weather says it'll be a little bit breezy for Friday.
"The only downside will be - it'll be very breezy today."
"If you're lucky enough to live within 5km of a beach on the South or East coast it'll be a bit cooler there."
"20 to 25 degrees across the country."
"So it's going to be an absolutely glorious weekend."

Good Weather: Gardaí Out In Force
Garda Superintendent Paul Cleary has asked drivers to give pedestrians and cyclists some extra space.
"We're conscious that with the good weather, a lot of pedestrians, joggers and cyclists will be out."
"We would ask that motorists would be extra vigilant to give that bit of extra room to pedestrians and cyclists."
"Also we've seen a significant increase in the number of drivers detected drug driving"
"An almost 90% increase."
"The Guards don't want to be delivering devastating news to any family this weekend."
More information on drug driving is available here.
