The UK Met Office says the same record was hit in Northern Ireland with 14.5 degrees measured in Derry.
This summer saw the highest temperature in more than a century in Ireland of 33 degrees celsius.
Last night, Environment Minister Eamon Ryan said we've never had an autumn like this before and shows the weather system is getting more erratic.
