Ireland has finally moved into a much more settled spell of weather with the jet stream moving to the north of Ireland towards Iceland allowing high pressure to build from the Azores over the middle part of this week with that area of high pressure then moving up across western Europe at the end of this week and staying put over the this weekend.

The high pressure will strengthen that bit more on Sunday with more in the way of sunshine compared to today which has seen a good deal of cloud in places with more in the way of sunshine for many areas on Sunday.
