Apparently the weather such as it is in June 2008 is not all that different from June 2007 ...read on...June 2007 Weather Summary...Source: Met Eireann - www.met.ie

Despite a week of dry, warm and very sunny weather everywhere between the 4th and 11th, June overall was a very wet month in most places with sunshine totals below normal, while mean temperatures were highest in western areas. More than twice the normal June rainfall was recorded in the east and south, while at Kilkenny it was the wettest June since records began there in 1957, with more than three times its average total recorded. Heavy daily falls, some in association with thunder, led to localised flooding on a number of days.

Just home from work. Higher roods are fogbound, extremely dense in places, the pitch darkness and intermittant rain made for a bit of a white knuckle drive in spots.
12.1°C and intermittant rain/drizzle.
