Wednesday is looking like the best choice for a beach trip this week

Quick; pack up some sandwiches.
The fine weather is set to continue for another few days, with temperatures of up to 24C predicted on Wednesday.
While we don’t mind the odd dip in a deluge, if you like your swimming with a side of hot summer sunshine then now is the time to act.
According to Met Éireann, this morning’s fog will lift to reveal a mainly dry day with more sunny spells developing as the day goes on.
“A few scattered sharp showers are possible in the afternoon and evening.” say forecasters, with highest temperatures a warm 19 to 24 degrees.

Tomorrow, Wednesday will be dry and mostly cloudy to start but brightening up during the day with sunny spells and some isolated showers possible. It will be warm again, with highest temperatures of 20 to 24 degrees.
Cork’s busier beaches such as Inchydoney are probably best avoided if you want to avoid a traffic jam, but there are hundreds of hidden coves where you can nab a secret patch of sand to yourself without worrying about social distancing.
