According to the national forecaster, temperatures will start getting warmer and more settled from Monday, July 29th on, although we will have to suffer more rain, cloud and drizzle in the meantime.

Alan O’Reilly from Carlow Weather agrees, confirming that the weekend is “still looking pretty decent at present.”

It’s back to drizzle for Wednesday and Thursday however, both of which will be warm (up to 22C) and wet, with
sunshine and showers on Friday and slightly cooler temperatures of between 17 and 19 degrees.
