Ireland is set to experience a mini heatwave this weekend, with temperatures expected to reach 30C. The highest recorded temperature so far is 29C in Phoenix Park, Dublin. However, a 10-degree drop in temperatures is anticipated by Tuesday. A Status Yellow high temperature warning has been issued due to health concerns related to heat exposure. Farmers are advised to ensure livestock have access to ample water and ventilation. Reservoir levels are being monitored closely due to increasing water usage.
Temperatures soared to 29C yesterday, and are expected to exceed 30C in some areas over the weekend, according to Met Éireann. The provisional highest temperature of 29C was recorded in Phoenix Park in Co Dublin yesterday, as the country experiences a mini heatwave.
Health chiefs have urged people to avoid overexposure to the sun amid heatstroke fears, with the entire country entering a Status Yellow high temperature warning later today.
Met Éireann warned that temperatures this weekend could exceed 30C, with some predicting temperatures could soar above 31.5C in some sheltered inland areas.
Agri-groups have warned farmers that all livestock will need to have access to adequate water supplies, while animals kept indoors require ventilation.
