Shaking off the weekend rain, Monday will clear up ahead of a mostly dry day on Tuesday with "long spells of sunshine and just the small chance of a few light showers in Connacht and Ulster," Met Éireann predict.
Highest temperatures will creep up to between 21-24 degrees during the day, accompanied by cool dry nights.
Wednesday is expected to best of the week, with highs of 22-26 degrees, with the forecaster predicting there will be little change on Thursday as "warm sunshine and scattered cloud" passes over the country.
