    Mr Ring, a regular face on Australia's Channel Seven, said the Irish public could finally expect some rays of sunshine this summer.
    He is recommending people take their summer holidays in Ireland in the first half of July or the second half of August.
    But he is also listing April 16 to April 25, May 12 to May 19 and June 17 to 25 as optimum times for booking a week in the sun in Ireland.

    Just a small extract of Mr Ken Rings forcast for 2013. Now in the best time of May 12 to 19, bikini ready and sure i'd get a nice colour this week... purple that is, 8 degrees with hail today,more or less same all week.

    He's sending them to their watery, dull and cloudy with frequent spots of showery graves. The monster.

    In other news, Jean Byrne, the Irish weatherperson, has announced that the Zonda Wind will be particularly severe this year, with risks of avalanche in the Andes notably increased.

    He might be right, the weather has been really good so far in June. Hasn't been like that for many years.

    But, he also had his Skeptics back in Jan 2013. Who'll end up being right?

    Not a huge fan of heat either but I love the sun, and this level of heat is far, far preferable to the last couple of ludicrously cold summers. Just stay in the shade and keep hydrating.

    I hate when irish people whinge and moan about a few days of nice weather. You'd swear we were in the Sahara.

    It's Ireland. It pisses rain for most of the year. Everyone's always depressed. We get a few days of sun and people complain.

    Just sit tight and enjoy it while it lasts. You can have your drab, grey depressing weather back soon enough.

    I love it the only thing i hate about the sun is the way some people go on, for example the face on them when they see ye wearing jeans or not fully naked like they think ye should be...also the guilt factor that you have to be seeing going the beach and coming back raw red....**** off!!! Il enjoy the sun my own way ye thick!!

    If we were lucky, and had this heat on a constant basis, we would be used to it.

    But we don't, so we are not.

    But what are you gonna do, lets make hay while the sun shines.
