This evening: 

"Tonight will be dry with long clear spells and a few mist or fog patches. Lowest temperatures of 7 to 11 degrees with light variable breezes."

Tomorrow:

"Tomorrow, Saturday, will be a pleasant, largely dry day with plenty of sunshine. It'll become a little cloudier along south and southeastern coasts later in the day, with perhaps an isolated shower in the southeast. Highest temperatures of 18 to 22 degrees in mostly moderate southeast winds."

Saturday night: 

"Mainly dry with good clear spells for a time. Cloud will continue to increase from the south overnight, bringing a few showers or a few spots of light rain and drizzle, mainly into parts of south Munster and south and east Leinster. Lowest temperatures of 11 to 14 degrees in light to moderate southeasterly winds."

Sunday: "There'll be a good lot of dry weather for a time on Sunday in most areas with some bright or sunny spells, especially further to the north. It's likely to be mostly cloudy from early on though in the east and south with a few spots of light rain and drizzle here and there. Through the afternoon, it'll become increasingly cloudy in general with persistent and at times heavy rain starting to move in from the southwest. That rain will slowly spread northeastwards over the course of the rest of the day, mainly over Munster, Connacht and south Leinster. Highest temperatures of 18 to 21 degrees in freshening southeasterly winds."

Sunday night: "Rain will continue to move slowly northeastwards on Sunday night, some of it heavy. However, a clearance will follow from the southwest to most parts overnight, with a scattering showers following into the southwest. Lowest temperatures of 9 to 14 degrees in mostly moderate, occasionally fresh, southeast winds, veering southwest to west as the rain clears, decreasing mostly light to moderate, but fresh to strong along the west coast."
