The May bank holiday weather forecast for Cork will put a smile on your face

By Yay Cork April 28, 2023April 28, 2023

Cast off your thermals!

After a chilly start, Met Éireann says the spring is finally about to deliver some warmer temperatures, with plenty of sunshine on the way in Cork over the bank holiday weekend and beyond.

After a dull start this morning it’ll become increasingly sunny with just a few scattered showers today and highest temperatures of 15 or 16 degrees for Friday, dropping to around 11C after dark.

“There’ll be good sunny spells tomorrow, Saturday, with scattered showers in the afternoon, a few heavy.” said a forecaster, adding that temperatures could rise to a pleasant 18 degrees in Munster.

“Showery rain on Sunday morning will clear eastwards to leave a day of sunny spells and widespread showers, some heavy.”

Highest temperatures will be between 15 to 18 degrees and any lingering showers will die out, leaving Sunday night mainly dry.

Bank holiday Monday and beyond

It’ll be more sunny spells and scattered showers for Monday, with most areas becoming dry by evening and highest temperatures of 15 to 18 degrees.

“Tuesday looks like it will continue mainly dry with light winds, rather cloudy at times with best of the sunny spells in the south.” said the forecaster.

“Current indications suggest that there will be a good deal of dry and at times sunny weather through to midweek with just isolated showers. Temperatures continuing to reach the mid to high teens with mostly light winds.”
