The recent weather conditions have been more erratic that Father Dougal trying to decide between heads and tales, highlighting the worrying effects of climate change and the future our planet.
In a feeble attempt to push aside these concerns and to live in the moment, temperatures are set to rise again and it's just in time for the weekend.
According to Met Éireann, Saturday will be bright and dry with sunny spells and highest temperatures of 14 degrees with moderate to fresh easterly breezes.
Sunday will be mainly dry and bright with a mix of cloud and sunny spells. In Eastern coastal countries, top temperatures will be 11 or 12 C but could reach 13 to 15 C elsewhere.
So how should you spend this glorious weekend, here are 5 ways to enjoy the outdoors this weekend:
Eatyard
What better way to spend a sunny day than sampling a range of food and washing it down with a cold drink. This weekend Eatyard at the Bernard Shaw is hosting the first Eatyard street food cake weekender in Ireland. You can enjoy a selection of baked goods and a glass of prosecco or pint on arrival, sounds delightful.
