    It wouldn't surprise me if there was a few snow showers in places this morning.


  • Registered Users Posts: 721 ✭✭✭lostinashford


    Just had a short but intense hail shower - only lasted a few minutes but 2.3mm in that time, now sun splitting the stones :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,684 ✭✭✭Darwin


    A 5 minute torrential downpour just finishing now, looks like lots more on the way.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 20,421 ✭✭✭✭Rikand


    sun shines for 30 minutes, then a torrential downpour for 5 minutes . rinse later repeat here in Athlone. Serious auld hailstones and judging by the auld raintoday radar, it only gets worse once it passes the town

    Wooohoooo!!! thunder!! and lightning! about 20 mins ago... big hail, twice what is 'normal' for here :) Sky went really dark in places and clouds were moving quickly. Had visitors so couldn't disappear to see if there was any rotation or anything... they thought me strange enough leaning out the back door with a silly grin on my face at the sight of a few hailstones....lol


  • Registered Users Posts: 206 ✭✭megatron989

    Yea, a different thread, perhaps make a new post under chat and your heading. The Cherry blossoms, which should be blooming and coming into their flush [in Cork] and giving a two to three week display in May ~ never flushed this year and threw a few weak blooms and disappeared without the usual carpet of petals.

    So, they say no summer.

    Mods, please move my post too. Thanks.

    Cherry blossoms in May! They always arrive in April here in Dublin :)

    Whatever the weather.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 148 ✭✭shooter57


    my cherry blossoms bloomed in April in Dublin too, only for a short while though , like a week , but I find they only ever bloom for a short time , even if we did have a good summer ahead in recent years .

    Overcast with a few spots of rain. Temp 8.2c

    Tropical North Queensland (Outback not coastal)

    Temp 19.2c
    Dew Point 9.8c
    Humidity 54%
    North Wind @ 5kmph
    Pressure is 1017.9hPa

    Sunshine Sunshine Sunshine, hit 31c today. Wet season is officially over however coastal areas are still getting frequent rain and the top end around Darwin has a tropical low bringing showers (top end refers to the area of the Northern Territory around Darwin to maybe 400/500km south and far North Queensland i.e Weipa Peninsula). The humidity in these parts is gone. We had one day when a late season shower hit last week but it is looking like thats the end of the rain. The place is very green & the red earth and rocky hills are spectacular. When I arrived just prior to the wet season there was not a single green leaf around. Everything was red,dried out and dead.

    Gets cold in the mornings here, 7/8c sometimes but usually between 10-15c.
    Average for May here is 27c daytime and 14c nighttime + Low humidity. Funny seeing people put the heating on when its 18c out but after being in the tropics nearly a year 18c is chilly unless your in the sunshine.

    Great late Autumn/Early winter weather ;)
