Limerick Weather - Sunday, August 14, 2022

YET ANOTHER scorcher today with temperatures climbing to as high as 30 degrees in the province. It will be dry and sunny during the morning but through the course of the afternoon and evening, scattered heavy and thundery showers may develop. Slow-moving downpours are possible, causing spot flooding. Winds will be light and variable.

NATIONAL OUTLOOK

Showery with a gradual return to normal August temperatures.

Warm and humid tonight with temperatures staying above 13 to 17 degrees. Early in the night there will be mostly dry and clear conditions but cloud and showers will move into the west and southwest and will spread northeastwards across much of the country overnight. Some heavy and thundery falls are possible early on. There will be light northerly or variable winds.

Tomorrow, showery rain will continue to move northeastwards across the country on Monday morning. This will be followed by scattered showers and occasional sunny breaks from the southwest. The showers are likely to be heavy in Munster and south Leinster, with a chance of thunder, so spot flooding is possible. Highest temperatures will range between 15 degrees in the northwest and 23 degrees in the southeast, so not as warm as the weekend. Light to moderate northerly winds, becoming fresh on Atlantic coasts.
