    Friday's forecast 'Partly cloudy'

    Hopefully the rest of it is either the same or improves, Just no rain.

    10 day forecasts are usually a load of rubbish though. Just hope its nice.

    Latest from the Met Eireann website.

    Overall rainfall will not be heavy on Friday with most places just getting a few millimetres, but the rain will be persistent at times in the north. There will be some rain during next weekend but most of the time the weather will be dry and warm.

    I would take that but I suppose its abit early in the week to be reading too much into forecasts for the weekend.
