<\/p>\nWhile Northern Ireland is set to enjoy a sun-splashed day, forecasters have warned change is on the way by late evening.<\/p>\n
Hurricane Erin has sustained winds of up to 160mph as it ripped through the Atlantic Sea, leading to at least nine fatalities in Cape Verde, West Africa.<\/p>\n
Now it\u2019s heading towards Northern Ireland.<\/p>\n
While the weather event will weaken by the time it nears here, forecasters anticipate it will bring a wet change after the bank holiday heat.<\/p>\n

While warm and dry spells will be seen throughout much of the region early on Monday, wind and rain will pick up as the evening approaches.<\/p>\n
\u201cAt that stage, we start to see cloud thickening and a band of rain starting to move in to the west and most parts by the end of the afternoon,\u201d a Met Office spokesperson explained.<\/p>\n
\u201cSo the first significant rain for some time is actually on its way.<\/p>\n
\u201cAhead of the rain, though, again, quite a warm day with the southerly wind.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe\u2019re looking at temperatures up to 22C, 23C, possibly even locally 24C. And if we do get to 24C, that\u2019s the warmest August bank holiday temperature on record.\u201d<\/p>\n
August 25 is the earliest date the late summer bank holiday can fall.<\/p>\n
The forecaster added: \u201cThe bank holiday is quite early this year. And obviously it can vary between now and the end of the month, so it\u2019s a little bit early. But the highest temperature on record for the bank holiday Monday for Northern Ireland is 23.8C. And that was in Londonderry in 1983.\u201d<\/p>\n

On Tuesday, remnants of Hurricane Erin will begin to impact Northern Ireland as it comes to a halt near Iceland.<\/p>\n
Rainy conditions are expected to persist for most of the day with a high of 20C and low of 13C.<\/p>\n
The Met Office spokesperson said: \u201cIt\u2019s going to be at times fairly blustery, especially as the showers come through over the next few days. But it\u2019s nothing too unusual.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe low pressure system is maturing now \u2014 so it\u2019s not going to be particularly impactful.<\/p>\n
\u201cBut the main, significant, noticeable thing will be the fact it\u2019s more unsettled with rain at times.\u201d<\/p>\n

The forecaster explained that showers will continue throughout the rest of the week, with temperatures ranging from between 19C and 12C.<\/p>\n
Conditions in the Republic, meanwhile, are forecast to be similar, with drizzle set to begin by tomorrow afternoon in the west.<\/p>\n
Bank holiday temperatures elsewhere in the UK are expected to near 30C before the remains of Hurricane Erin hit. <\/p>\n
The weather will also turn by Monday evening as showers move in from the west.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"While Northern Ireland is set to enjoy a sun-splashed day, forecasters have warned change is on the way…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":370327,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[5011],"tags":[1144,16,15,741],"class_list":{"0":"post-370982","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-northern-ireland","8":"tag-northern-ireland","9":"tag-uk","10":"tag-united-kingdom","11":"tag-weather"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@uk\/115086502494810661","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/370982","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=370982"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/370982\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/370327"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=370982"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=370982"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=370982"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
