Parts of the country could see temperatures of 31 degrees today, as Ireland experiences what is likely to be the final heatwave of the summer.
Conditions are considered to be a heatwave here if five or more consecutive days of 25 degree heat are observed.
Wednesday saw the highest temperature for August in almost 20 years recorded.
A value of 29.2 degrees Celsius was recorded at Met Éireann’s Oak Park weather station at 3pm on Wednesday, the highest since the 30.
