Good news for the more than 75,000 partygoers who will visit Electric Picnic this weekend: it will be a dry and warm day with lots of sunshine.
According to the National Weather Service, today will be warm and sunny, making the weekend a perfect start for festival-goers.
In the west and northwest there may be occasional rain showers, but in Stradbally you are unlikely to experience this.
The maximum temperatures today are between 17 and 21 degrees, the warmest temperatures are in the east of the country. Tonight it will be dry and it can cool down to 8 degrees.
Tomorrow will be cloudy with scattered showers across the country, but those at EP, Met Éireann, will not be affected by the rain.
During the day it will remain dry in the east, with sunny spells and maximum temperatures around 19 degrees. At night it can cool down to 9 degrees and there will be an occasional shower.
The final day for visitors to Ireland's biggest music festival will be dry with a mix of cloud and sunny spells, with the occasional rain shower.
Later, it will gradually become sunnier from the southern provinces.
It will be another very hot day, with temperatures reaching 21 degrees. The last acts will be played until late at night, weather-wise.
There is some uncertainty for the 75,000 people leaving Stradbally on Monday. According to Met Éireann, current indications are that it will be windy and that rain showers will move across the country from the start.
Later on, heavy rain showers and local flooding are possible, but it will remain warm all day with temperatures around 20 degrees.
Tuesday will be cloudy and windy with showers.
There will also be sunny spells, while it will remain relatively dry in the east and southeast. Later in the day, the sun will still shine quite often, as the showers decrease.
