Ireland weather: Sunny spells and scattered showers this week
As much of Europe bakes in extreme heat, Ireland will have to make do with sunny spells and scattered showers , according to Met Éireann . Following a high of 25.1 degrees recorded in Phoenix Park in Dublin on Sunday, temperatures look set to decline slightly this week. Despite Monday morning's sunny conditions, particularly in the east, the day is set to be mostly cloudy overall, with outbreaks of rain extending eastward which will be heaviest and most persistent in the west and north. Highs of 19 to 23 degrees are expected with conditions turning drier and brighter on Monday evening. READ MORE Similar conditions are expected on Tuesday with a mix of cloud and sunny spells as well as scattered showers in the afternoon, some of which may turn heavy, particularly in the south, according to the forecaster. A fall to highs of 15 to 19 degrees is anticipated. Wednesday and Thursday will see further sunny spells and scattered showers with more frequent showers expected to move into Atlantic coasts through Wednesday night. Some showers will turn heavy on Thursday, particularly in the north, but will become more isolated in the evening. Highs of 20 degrees are expected in some areas on Wednesday and Thursday. Friday is set to be mostly cloudy, turning breezy with outbreaks of rain from the west while highest temperatures of 15 to 19 degrees are expected. Further outbreaks of rain are expected during the weekend, possibly turning drier later on Sunday, Met Éireann said. Elsewhere, parts of England, including London, are entering a fourth day of a heatwave, with highs of 34 degrees expected on Monday, which is expected to be one of the hottest June days on record. In Europe, authorities in several countries have issued health warnings with temperatures reaching 46 degrees in El Granado, a small town in the south near the border of Portugal. Aemet, Spain's state meteorological agency, warned of 'very high and persistent temperatures' over the coming days. Several other countries – including Italy, Portugal and Greece – have been on alert as temperatures climbed beyond 40 degrees during the weekend. In France, wildfires broke out on Sunday in the southwest as temperatures breached 40 degrees. The majority of the country remains under a heatwave alert from Monday until midweek. Similar fires have occurred in Greece and Turkey. Amid very high UV levels in Ireland during periods of clear skies and extreme UV levels in popular holiday destinations abroad, extra protection is required. Alongside the essentials – including SPF, hats, and clothing to cover the skin – the HSE recommends seeking shade or avoiding being outside entirely over midday hours during UV levels of eight and above.

Trade winds to persist into next weekend
HONOLULU (KHON2) – High pressure far northeast of Hawaii will drive breezy trade winds through the next week, with slight variations through the week. Cumulus clouds and scattered showers will move across the state pushed along by the trades, focusing mostly over windward and mauka sides of the islands. Isolated showers will pass over leeward areas of the smaller islands at times, but will not linger long. Most showers will fall during the overnight and early morning time frames, except for Big Island which will receive most of the showers during the afternoon. Overall rainfall amounts will be insignificant through midweek. An upper low moving across the state could increase shower coverage and intensity Thursday through next weekend, with a similar distribution across mostly the windward and mauka areas. Small Craft Advisory until 6 PM HST Monday for Kauai Northwest Waters, Kauai Leeward Waters, Kauai Channel, Oahu Windward Waters, Oahu Leeward Waters, Kaiwi Channel, Maui County Windward Waters, Maui County Leeward Waters, Maalaea Bay, Pailolo Channel, Alenuihaha Channel, Big Island Leeward Waters, Big Island Southeast Waters.
