Bang on the factor and stay out of direct sunshine between the hours of 12pm and 3pm today, that's the latest weather warning from Met Éireann.

They're predicting temperatures to reach a scorching 28 degrees today.

The warning is in place for Dublin, Carlow, Kildare, Wicklow and Meath from 12 o'clock tomorrow afternoon until six in the evening.

The recent good weather has also prompted lifeguard cover to be extended at beaches in Clare today. 

Warm & mainly dry today with sunny spells. However, there is the risk of a few showers later in the west and southwest. Max temps 19 to 26 C

Clare County Council has confirmed the cover is being provided at Kilkee, Lahinch, Spanish Point and Fanore from 3:30pm to 7:30pm on both days.

The recent sunshine has seen an increase in the number of people taking to the waters across the county.

So get out and make the most of the good weather but whatever you do, don't end up like this guy.
