The continent sizzles but it's a mixed bag in Ireland on the weather front

Today is providing a mixed bag on the weather front with many parts of Leinster and Ulster bathed in sunshine but its umbrellas at the ready for southern and western counties.

Warm and humid today with good sunshine in many areas but cloudy periods also especially in Munster and Connacht with some scattered showers and the risk of localised heavy or thundery downpours. Remaining dull also in parts of the Southeast. Top temperatures of 22 to 27 degrees pic.twitter.com/RE3pwH2Lmv
