Hot and sunny today again and to remain dry until Saturday

It will be mostly dry across Ulster today with a mix of sunny spells and some patchy cloud at times. 

Highest temperatures of 17 to 22 degrees, coolest in the east and on northern fringes due to mostly moderate east to northeast winds.

It will be dry tonight with a mix of clear spells and some high cloud. Lowest temperatures of 8 to 11 degrees in mostly light easterly or variable breezes.

It will stay warm and largely dry until early Saturday morning, when some showery rain is expected to start moving into the south and move up across the country later on, introducing a slightly more showery but quite humid air mass.
