It's Sunday, June 14, 2026. If you're in Ireland, you're probably wondering about the day's weather. This year has brought its share of mixed conditions, so checking the forecast is always a good idea. I've looked at Met Éireann's predictions, and it seems like we're in for a generally pleasant day, with some changes as the new week begins.

Sunday's Outlook: Sunshine, Haze, and Mild Temperatures

Today, Sunday, expect dry weather with warm, sunny periods. You might notice the sun appearing hazy due to high cloud cover, but this shouldn't diminish the warmth. Northern parts of the country could have a cloudier start, with a slight chance of drizzle, though it's unlikely to amount to much.

Temperatures should be agreeable, generally ranging from 17 to 22 degrees Celsius. The West and Midwest are expected to be the warmest areas. However, coastal regions in the East, South, and North will likely feel cooler due to a light to moderate easterly breeze, which will be stronger along Southwestern coasts.

What to Expect Tonight

Sunday night should be dry for most, with a mix of cloud and clear spells. Later, the Southwest will become cloudier, with that slight chance of drizzle returning to parts of Cork and Kerry. A few showers are also possible in the East. Lowest temperatures are forecast to be between 9 and 12 degrees Celsius, with light to moderate easterly or variable breezes. Overall, it will be a mild night for mid-June.

Looking Ahead to Monday, June 15

Monday will largely continue the dry weather trend for many areas, with hazy sunshine persisting for a while. However, the West will see more cloud moving in during the morning.

A few showers are possible in the East and North in the morning. Then, mostly patchy light rain or drizzle will gradually spread from the Southwest, mainly through the afternoon and evening. Amounts should be minimal for most, though there's a chance of more moderate showery rain later in parts of the North and East. Watch for hill and coastal mist and fog at times in the South and West.

Monday's temperatures will be slightly cooler than Sunday's, ranging from 15 to 19 or 20 degrees Celsius. The Midlands and East are expected to be the warmest. Breezes will be light to moderate, mainly east to southeasterly or variable, gradually shifting southwesterly for most. This means a slight change in the air and a bit more cloud and drizzle are on the way.

The National Outlook: A More Changeable Week Ahead

For the rest of the working week, the national outlook suggests more changeable and mixed weather. We're looking at spells of rain or showers, with some heavier falls likely at times. However, there will also be drier, brighter spells. Temperatures will remain mild or warm, around average for this time of year. There's a chance it may become more settled again next weekend.

Monday Night: Rain Spreading Eastwards

Monday night will see showery rain in the North and East clearing northeastwards. Following this, there will be a mix of cloud and clear spells. However, cloud will build again from the Southwest and West, bringing further scattered outbreaks of mostly light rain and drizzle, spreading eastwards. Expect some hill and coastal mist and fog. Lowest temperatures will be between 10 and 13 degrees Celsius, with light to moderate southerly winds.

Tuesday: Drier Spells Before More Rain

Tuesday looks mostly cloudy for a while, with scattered outbreaks of mostly light rain and drizzle continuing to spread east through the morning. Drier weather will follow from the West for a period. However, in the afternoon, further outbreaks of rain and drizzle will move up from the Southwest, mainly over parts of Munster and Leinster. Some of this could be heavy, particularly in southern areas. More hill and coastal mist and fog are also expected. Highest temperatures will be between 15 and 20 degrees Celsius, with moderate to fresh south to southwest winds.

Tuesday Night: Heavy Rain Moves North

Rain is likely to push further northwards on Tuesday night, potentially heavy at times, before clearing eastwards. Clear spells and isolated showers will follow, mainly into western parts. Lowest temperatures will be 10 to 13 degrees Celsius in light to moderate southwest winds, which will be fresher in the West.

Wednesday: Bright, Breezy, and Scattered Showers

Wednesday is shaping up to be a bright and rather breezy day with sunny spells and a good deal of dry weather. There will be some well-scattered showers, but nothing too persistent. Highest temperatures will be between 15 and 20 degrees Celsius in moderate to fresh and occasionally gusty southwest winds.

Wednesday Night: Cloud Increases, Rain Returns

Wednesday night will bring some clear spells and a few well-scattered showers for a time. It will become cloudier overnight, with some showery rain starting to move up from the Southwest. Lowest temperatures will be 11 to 13 degrees Celsius in mostly moderate southerly winds, a little fresher in the West.

Thursday: Cloudy with Showery Outbreaks

Thursday looks like a day with a few bright or sunny spells, but overall, it's likely to be quite cloudy with showery rain at times. It will be rather breezy, with highest temperatures again between 15 and 20 degrees Celsius in moderate to fresh and gusty southerly winds.

Thursday Night: Heavy Rain and Thunder

Heavy rain will likely move up from the Southwest on Thursday night, with a few thundery bursts and some spot flooding possible. It will be a very mild and humid night, with temperatures falling no lower than 12 to 15 degrees.

Friday: Wet Start, Clearing Later

Friday will be mostly cloudy and wet for a time, with some heavy rain. However, a clearance to brighter, drier weather with sunny spells and a few scattered showers will gradually spread from the West through the day. The rain may linger into Friday night in the East before finally clearing.

Next Weekend: Hope for Settled Weather

While there are likely to be some showers around into Saturday, there's a good chance it will become more settled and mainly dry again through next weekend as pressure builds. So, if you're planning something for next Saturday, keep an eye on the forecast, but there's a glimmer of hope for some decent weather.

It's great to see a generally mild start to the day, and while the week ahead looks a bit mixed, that's just typical Irish weather, isn't it? Enjoy your Sunday, whatever you're up to!
