I remember last year it was like early summer, about twenty degrees, I remember going to Turkey a few weeks later and comparing the weather. This year its like the third week in November leading up to Xmas.

Thats why they started calling it climate change instead..... now any time the weather is "unseasonable" its down to climate change.

Ah yes, but last year, that day you remember - that was summer.

This year though, this year will be different! It's going to be the warmest summer since '95. I'm certain of it.

THREE MORE days of “wall-to-wall” sun are expected as Ireland basks in unseasonable temperatures higher yesterday than in Barcelona and Crete.

Temperatures rose above 20 degrees in some parts of the country yesterday, mainly in the north-west."

I just saw a tourist, shivering, wearing a summer dress and a light jacket. Me and my four layers of warm clothing laughed at her.

Only a problem if you're a Christer who forgot to stock up.

Fromthetrees

Yeah and because I'm an idiot, when I went out for a smoke last night in -1 I wore a t-shirt and hoody, and when (if) the temperature reaches 20 degrees I'll be going outside smoking in a t-shirt and hoody.

WINNING!!!

I suppose I made that clear though about having an earlier summer than usual in the OP.

Four more days and we're into April.

Does anyone remember April 2007? Weren't we getting bush fires? Small bush fires.

What are the chances it'll be warm enough for a bush fire?

Doubt it'll even get warm enough for a water shortage as so often happens when the temperatures creep past 15 Celsius.

Father Ted Crilly: Ah, Sister Assumpta!
Sr. Assumpta: Hello Father!
Father Ted Crilly: Dougal, Dougal, do you remember Sister Assumpta?
Father Dougal McGuire: Er, no.
Father Dougal McGuire: She was here last year! And then we stayed with her in the convent, back in Kildare. Do you remember it? Ah, you do! And then you were hit by the car when you went down to the shops for the paper. You must remember all that? And then you won a hundred pounds with your lottery card? Ah, you must remember it, Dougal!
[Dougal shakes his head]
Sr. Assumpta: And weren't you accidentally arrested for shoplifting? I remember we had to go down to the police station to get you!... And the police station went on fire? And you had to be rescued by helicopter?
Father Ted Crilly: Do you remember? You can't remember any of that? The helicopter! When you fell out of the helicopter! Over the zoo! Do you remember the tigers?
[Dougal shakes his head some more]
Father Ted Crilly: You don't remember? You were wearing your blue jumper.
Father Dougal McGuire: Ah, Sister Assumpta!

An actual Summer (you know, with sun in it) would be nice this year, and not this spring-blending-into-autumn sh1te that we seem to get all the time now.

2012 was the worst fúckin summer ever. I swear ta jaysus if we don't get burned to a cinder, drought, and incinerated by Ra himself this summer, I'm going to stab a bag full of puppies.

It's been a grand day here in the North West. Dry and sunny. I'm sitting at the beach right now. 7pm and it's 18 degrees

It's all a publicity stunt for the return of Game of Thrones. It'll be back to normal on Tuesday.

It can even snow in may. There's nothing unusual about this as it's just the normal workings of the climate. http://www.dandantheweatherman.com/Bereklauw/latesnow.html

It's grand weather imo. Any break from the blanket of drizzle which seems to perpetually cover this country is a nice change.

chopperbyrne

It snowed in the early hours of the 4th of April last year, so with the exception of the freak heatwave last year, we're par for the course.

youtube!

I remember it snowed for over 2 hrs in Clondalkin on June 1st 1994. I was working on a building site back then and it was bloody freezing so much so that I had to light a fire in the house I was working on, the next day it was 20 degrees and sunny!

20 Degrees last year, this year Baltic

Good work, it took me 4 years to get 1 degree. Enjoy your time in the Baltic. What country are you heading to Finland? Latvia? Lithuania or Estonia perhaps?
