Met Éireann has issued a fresh Status Yellow high-temperature warning for nine counties across Ireland, just hours after the previous alert expired. The warning, effective from 12pm today until 8pm, covers Carlow, Kilkenny, Laois, Offaly, Wexford, Cork, Limerick, Tipperary, and Waterford. Forecasters predict top temperatures of 24 to 29 degrees Celsius, with the warmest conditions expected in the south.
The national forecaster has cautioned that the heat could lead to water safety concerns, heat stress, forest fires, and drought conditions. The warning comes after a previous yellow alert ended at 6am this morning, underscoring the sustained heatwave affecting the region.
Today is expected to be dry with long spells of sunshine, while tonight will be clear with lows of 14 degrees. Saturday will bring dry and warm weather with highs of 23 to 27 degrees across the Midlands, South, and East, though the north and northwest can expect cloudier skies and temperatures between 17 and 22 degrees.
Saturday night will be mostly clear with patches of mist and fog in some areas, dropping to lows of 9 to 13 degrees in a light northerly breeze. Sunday is set to remain dry with hazy sunshine, warmest over Leinster and Munster at 21 to 25 degrees, while Connacht and Ulster will see cooler conditions at 16 to 21 degrees. Met Éireann advises the public to stay hydrated and take precautions against the heat.
