IN CASE YOU haven’t noticed, the weather has gotten slightly warmer outside. Temperatures are set to go over 20 degrees this weekend which means one thing and one thing alone; CANS. We will also accept Calippos as an excellent second answer.

Before that though, we have to learn how to venture outside without needing at least 5 layers, a scarf and a duvet. Here are 15 of the best tweets so far about Ireland hotting up.
1. Some people are in shock.
My eyes aren't used to all this sunshine... pic.twitter.com/V7iny16SnR

2. While others are just pure delighted.

3. Warm weather means one thing and one thing alone.
Honestly ya get a sniff of the sunshine and next thing there’s a cracked can in your hand

4. Has anyone got a live feed of the Barge?
Tiny bit of sunshine and it’s harder to get a seat outside a pub in Dublin than it is a sun lounger by the pool at lunchtime in Torremolinos pic.twitter.com/elTSMrsVaS

5. No but seriously we’ve been waiting for sunny cans for MONTHS.
out of work a wet second and someone just asked me to get them 16 cans of excelsior from lidl

6. We always seem to forget how small Dublin is.
One of the funnier things about Dublin city is that once the sun comes out it immediately becomes clear that we actually don’t have enough space for everyone once we’re not all hiding indoors.

7. We always get caught on the hop with warm weather too.
BREAKING: Scenes in Dublin City centre as folk dressed in winter attire have been ambushed with warm temperatures. This has resulted in what experts are calling 'the melted welly look'. More as we have it

8. And even when we do prepare it goes wrong.
My pumps are cutting the back of my heels so I’m currently doing some sort of prance on my tip toes down Baggot St because it’s the only way it doesn’t hurt to walk. I am not prepared to dress for the sunshine.

9. We need to impose summer fashion rules early.
My summer footwear ethos is have fun and keep your toes to yourself

10. Some of us have it down though.

11. Do spare a thought for those of us who struggle in this weather.
Ye this warm weather is gr8 and everything but can we talk about this POLLEN BOMB and the EXACERBATION of my hay fever??????

12. And those of us who live near birds.
I know the sunshine is lovely and all but birds chirping outside your bedroom window at 5.30 isn’t lovely at all 😩😴

13. But overall we’re delighted that the sun is back.
The warmth of the wind today, as well as the lateness of the sunshine felt incredibly liberating. Need to run a basic errand to a local library at 7:45pm? Why not do it immediately without putting on four coats!

14. No like, really, really delighted.
Not sure if it's the antidepressants or the sunshine but either way there is a big bunch of serotonin bopping around my brain.

15. Enjoy the sunshine guys.
