We’ll believe it when we see it.

But Met Éireann is teasing some properly pleasant weather this weekend, following a soggy start to spring on Leeside.

While Wednesday started out dry in most places,  highest temperatures only ranged from 8 to 12 degrees all day. This will climb to 14C on Thursday and up to 15C on Friday.

Once the working week is over, the weather starts looking a little more promising:

“Most areas will be dry on Saturday with some sunshine at times. Highest temperatures of 12 to 17 degrees with light and variable winds.” said a forecaster.

Showers tomorrow but not many after that and weekend continues to look good😎 pic.twitter.com/TwtHqLtM7W
