Met Éireann has issued a Status Yellow high temperature warning, with temperatures expected to reach as high as 30 degrees in parts of the country this week.

 

The warning comes into effect at midday today and remains in place until Friday morning.

 

However in this region it is expected to be cloudier at times with just a few isolated spots of drizzle, mist and with some coastal fog possible.

While temperatures are expected to register between 22 to 29 degrees today it will be warmest in the south and east, but a cooler 19 to 21 degrees in parts of the northwest.

 

The HSE is urging people to take precautions during the hot spell, particularly for older people and those with underlying health conditions.
