‘Hottest spell of weather’ in YEARS as Met Eireann issue 28C heatwave forecast & pinpoint best day amid Azores high

MET Eireann has confirmed that temperatures could hit a sizzling 28C in just a few days as Ireland braces for the impact of Europe’s heatwave.

Temperatures soared as high as 46.6C across the continent as a blistering heatwave closed schools, workplaces and recorded multiple deaths last week.

And Met Eireann confirmed Ireland is next on the list for hot conditions.

Cathal Nolan from Ireland’s Weather Channel warned people to brace for the “hottest spell of weather since 2022” as Met Eireann confirmed temperatures will skyrocket this week.

Nolan said warm temperatures will return with isolated light showers in some parts of the country this week, starting from today.

He said: “This morning the ECMWF model has come into alignment with the GFS, that Ireland is about to experience its hottest spell of weather so far this year with summer like conditions developing through the second half of next week, peaking through next weekend.”

He revealed that temperatures by the middle of the week reach into the mid-20s, while some parts of the country will see temperatures reach up to 30C by the weekend.

Cathal added: “It’s always worth mentioning a word of caution when analysing weather models more than five days in advance, so changes are possible.

“But there’s growing confidence that we are about to experience our hottest spell of weather since 2022, with some areas possibly experiencing heatwave conditions.”

Met Eireann said: “The Azores High will build this week with warm and settled weather to come. Becoming very warm or even hot from Thursday.”

Meteorologist Siobhan Ryan said that there will be some “patchy rain” today as warm weather makes its comeback.

Today, July 7, started dry for most of the country with warm spells of sunshine, but it will be cooler and cloudier across west Connacht and Ulster with “some light showers”.

Temperatures will reach highs of 14C to 23C, and it will be warmest across southeast and east areas.

Siobhan said: “Now similarly, tonight will bring a little patchy rain or a few showers to west and northwest areas.

“Dry for most, however, with clear spells across the south and east, and that’s all with lows of 9C to 13C in a light to moderate west to northwest wind. “

Tomorrow will be humid with patchy outbreaks of drizzle, warm spells of sunshine are expected to occur, especially across Munster and the south Midlands.

She added: “A humid day as well with highs of 17C to 24C, and that comes with a light to moderate west to northwest wind.

“Now beyond that, it looks like high pressure will build from the Azores, bringing largely settled weather for the week ahead.

“And the night will bring patchy drizzle to the west and northwest counties, but otherwise dry under broken cloud with mild conditions with the lowest temperature of 11C to 15C.

“There will be just a little patchy drizzle at times in over some western fringes, but overall we’re looking at day on day, the temperatures trending upwards, and more in the way of sunshine.”

HOTTEST DAY REVEALED

She added: “Now beyond that, it looks like high pressure will build from the Azores, bringing largely settled weather for the week ahead.”

“In fact, towards later this week, values will climb to the mid 20s widely, and they could even reach higher values with some very warm or hot conditions on the way.”

The weather expert said that Friday is set to experience a “very warm or hot continental airmass” to feed up across Ireland with sunny conditions occurring widely.

Friday is currently forecast to be the hottest day of the week, with temperatures expected to blaze between 22C and 28C.

The second hottest day of the week will be Thursday, another dry day for most with warm spells of sunshine.

Temperatures will reach highs of 21C to 26C in just light southwest or variable breezes.

The Espresso singer – who was supported by Amber Mark, Olivia Dean and Clairo – performed at BST Hyde Park for two night’s over the weekend.

Both sets were full of surprises, and last night revellers got a HUGE treat.

Sabrina is known for covering 80s pop hits during her shows, so chose to bring on a legendary band from that iconic era.

Fans went crazy when she introduced Duran Duran to the stage.

The star then belted out Hungry Like The Wolf alongside the group’s Simon Le Bon and John Taylor.

Fans could be heard singing along to the famous song, as Sabrina and the boys performed on stage.

The Sun revealed how Sabrina had worked hard to make sure her performance was flawless.

An insider told us: “Sabrina spent four days in Hyde Park last week rehearsing for her shows — that is the most an artist has ever dedicated to getting their set perfect.

She had three backstage areas at BST — one for her band, another for her dancers and a private space for herself.

The source added: “The private area had its own veranda and a bed for her.”

STAYING IN LUXURY

Whilst she performed at BST in Hyde Park, Sabrina stayed in one of London’s poshest hotels, who’s guests over the years have included Beyonce and Mariah Carey.

The Sun exclusively revealed how she hired out the £25,000-a-night penthouses her fellow pop queens stayed in at the five-star Corinthia London.

The Manchild hitmaker was at the swanky hotel during her sold-out British Summer Time gigs in Hyde Park over the weekend.

A source told us: “Sabrina only wanted to stay at the very best during her time in the capital.

“She has been working around the clock to perfect her performances and having a peaceful night’s sleep is paramount to her.

“Stars love the Corinthia’s old-school English charm.

“It is the place to be when staying in London.”
