Highest temperatures of 17 to 20 degrees, but becoming fresher by evening as blustery northwesterly winds develop. "The next few days will be dominated by a low-pressure system close to Ireland resulting in breezy conditions with showery rain and it will slightly cooler than in recent days." Thursday will bring with it some scattered showers early on but these will merge into longer spells of rain in the west and north later. Highest temperatures will range from 14 to 18 degrees in a moderate south-west to southerly wind.
