    Or rather wetter in the west and warmer esp the south/east (yay!), if the latest guesstimation is correct then I'll not complain to be honest, a bit wetter in winter, dry and warm summers sounds good to me. If you are in Galway you probably feel different.

    I like when the weather is warm and when it's wet, but i don't like it when it's wet and warm at the same time!

    It means i have to wear a raincoat but then i sweat profusely, then i start to smell a bit, its not good.

    That N.D.P report can be read here.

    Main highlights include increased winter storm activity in the next 50 years.

    Strange that the report also admits that storm frequency and intensity has shown a marked decrease during the 1990's and early naugthies. I argue that N.D.P's acknowledgement of this fails to justify the overall contradiction that we need to batten down the hatchetts a lot more in a "warming" Ireland.
