Ireland’s Weather for Tuesday, 29 April 2025
Warmth is sweeping the country today as Ireland basks in the kind of spring heat rarely seen this early in the year. After a dull and damp few weeks, the island is finally catching a break from relentless cloud cover, as long spells of hazy sunshine dominate the forecast.
Let’s not sugar-coat it—today will be a scorcher by Irish standards. Temperatures are set to soar to highs of 17 to 22 degrees, with inland counties expected to feel the brunt of the heat.
This spring sunshine is being carried in by light to moderate southeast or variable breezes, meaning those along the coasts might experience slightly cooler conditions. However, most of the country will enjoy calm, warm air under a glowing April sky.
Morning fog patches will clear gradually, though some may linger near coasts before giving way to clearer conditions. Expect visibility to improve as the day progresses.

Tonight’s Outlook For Ireland
Conditions will remain dry into the night with variable cloud cover and clear spells in most counties. Temperatures will dip to 7 to 11 degrees, making it relatively mild overnight. Mist and fog will redevelop in many places, especially in rural and sheltered areas, so drivers should remain cautious.
What Else to Watch
The unseasonal warmth raises a few potential risks. UV levels are climbing, so sunburn could become a genuine concern despite it still being April. Pollen counts may also rise, so allergy sufferers should stay prepared. There are no official weather warnings in place today, but always monitor the latest from Met Éireann for sudden updates.
For those looking to make the most of it, it’s a day for parks, walking trails, beer gardens, and outdoor cafes. But don’t ditch the jacket yet—fog and mist are still lurking for the evening hours.
This Tuesday will be a reminder that Ireland can, once in a while, pull out a day that feels a little more like the Med. Make the most of it, because this kind of sunshine doesn’t tend to linger.
