Ireland’s Bright and Sunny Weather Forecast – 1st April 2025

This morning, Ireland wakes under a calm and sun-drenched sky. From the mountains of Mayo to the streets of Limerick, the air is still, and for once, the clouds are gone. But what seems serene may not stay so for long. With temperatures soaring up to 18°C in the west, today’s forecast looks deceptively beautiful. Hazy sunshine early on is expected to become stronger and more persistent, especially in the west. Meanwhile, counties along the south and east will feel notably cooler, struggling to reach the mid-teens. Winds blowing in from the southeast are light to moderate for most but may freshen at times.

Tonight in Ireland

Tonight will remain calm and clear for most of the country. Winds from the southeast will ease slightly to light or moderate levels, keeping coastal areas a touch breezier. Temperatures overnight will dip to between 4 and 8 degrees, so it will feel fresher, especially inland. Expect a dry night overall, with excellent visibility and no risk of frost.

SEO Tip-Offs & Talking Points

With the unseasonably warm weather, expect a boom in outdoor activity. Public health guidance urges sun protection, especially in western counties. Traffic volumes may also rise along coastal roads as locals take advantage of the sun.

Tourism boards are already highlighting today as a bonus for spring travellers, with early bookings spiking across Galway, Sligo, and the Cliffs of Moher region. For city dwellers in Dublin, it might be a frustrating tease – cooler coastal breezes are keeping highs at just 11 to 13 degrees in some neighbourhoods.

Farmers have been warned to prepare for unusually dry conditions for this time of year, especially in areas already experiencing below-average rainfall since mid-March. No rain is expected for another 48 to 72 hours.

Looking Ahead

Tomorrow, similar conditions are forecast, though the eastern half of the country could see cloudier spells later in the day. Models indicate the potential for a change next weekend, with low pressure building in from the Atlantic.
