    I agree. Nice weather is comfortable weather. 14 - 20 degrees, a few white fluffy clouds hanging about, you can sit outside in it, if you want, take off the jacket, even go swimming. A 'nice day in May', as I heard the Rubberbandits once put it. Why people go mad over weather in the high 20s or low to mid 30s is beyond me. It just gets to be cloying and clammy and crazy-making.

    I would wager that, statistically, Leaving Cert weather is pretty much a myth.

    Crazy wind around here today and a few showers but the temperature is about right.. as said above I don't get the love for sweltering humid days myself.

    Only thing I don't like really are very cold days.

    The real killer for me anyway is that every time we get hot sunny weather it's always dead heat very high humidity and not a breeze. Now if there was always a breeze it would make it more enjoyable, but dead heat is just horrible imo.

    When we have two days of a decent bit of sunshine, some drip will start a thread whining about the heat and praying for rain.

    And that drip would be me, I love the rain, it freshens the air up just nicely. And great for the plants :)

    Has there ever been a time when Ireland had great summers and Spain had **** ones? :)

    Yes, when I am abroad the weather is fabulous here. Wherever I go, whatever sunny destination I choose, I will have exceptionally bad weather. Spain, Portugal, South of France, Bahamas, Florida, Mexico all suffered because of me.

    I am going to Spain at the end of June so expect excellent weather here then (sorry Spain) :P

    Well it looks like you will get your sun. From monday onwards it will be sunny and temperatures will rise to 20°c possibly 21°c with plenty of sunshine especially in the east.

    OULOOK: Mostly dry settled conditions look set to last well into next week with high pressure dominating. Pleasantly mild on many of the days too, with just local sea breezes. Cool by night though, with air temperatures falling back to the low single figures locally.
