As the kids return to school following the mid-term break, there was a real sense of spring about Monday morning at sunrise.
Aside from some well scattered showers, it's a bright start to Monday in most places.
Heavy showers will extend across Ireland from the west in the afternoon, reaching the east coast by early evening. Heavy showers continuing in the west tonight.
Top temperatures today of 8-10c.
Further showers tomorrow but sunshine will become more widespread by the afternoon, particularly in the eastern half of Ireland.
