The National Ploughing Championships in Ratheniska, Co Laois is set to bask in above average sunshine this year.
According to Cathal Nolan from Ireland's Weather Channel, temperatures are set to reach 24 degrees next week.
The forecaster says it brilliant news for those attending the ploughing in Laois or working outdoors. Speaking to Northern Sound earlier today, Cathal says it certainly a year to leave the raincoats, ponchos and wellies behind and to bring sun cream instead.
