    Someone will be able to tell you.... from about 10 days out. Anything this far out is just complete nonsense.

    Bro? lol. And yes... it is complete nonsense. You didn't predict anything.. just a lucky guess. But you work away believing you can predict weather 6 months in advance... each to their own. :D

    So we have another droidman? UHHHH this again. :rolleyes:

    Let's respectfully disagree. I tend to agree with our educated meteorologists who rightfully point out that long range forecasting is utter nonsense. It's just a shame that there is not a designated thread for it so logical people wouldn't have to waste their time skipping over such posts.

    Meanwhile, back at the ranch, only that it is mild, it feels like November here in north Wicklow.
    Light patch rain, overcast and dark.

    God no, not like the weather is somewhat predictable?

    It seems both Syranbruen and M.T Cranium have been fairly spot on with their analysis of the summer so far, so it's really not up to you to state what we can and cannot believe in, believe what you like, and we will do the same.

    Ah look, there's only so much I can say.

    As I and others have repeated to you, its a General forecast. You need to stop ignoring this if your trying for a reasonable discussion. If a summer is forecast to be hot and dry, you'd be extremely naive to presume that you won't see any rain or you can just throw out any clothing item that's not shorts or a t-shirt. The forecast is broad.

    Broadness I feel is where Met Éireann win over the likes of Accuweather. They tell you the weather will be "relatively sunny with winds increasing throughout the day on coasts and cloud starting to make an appearance with possibly a shower or two". Accuweather says "It will be sunny, warm" Suddenly a thunderstorm breaks out. Who's right?

    Broad and detailed is the only way forecasts can ever be accurate.

    Give me one instance in which I have ever brought up this topic? If you state things here, you cannot expect people to not discuss it. You cannot state things as fact and not allow scrutiny, that's rejecting others opinions.

    Yeah. I wasn't in ANY WAY stating my predictions as fact, it is my opinion.

    Anyway... today has been completely dry and cloudy so far at Grange, not a speck of sun or a drop of rain at all.

    Threatened to get bright here earlier but it was a false alarm.
    Light rain here at the moment.

    Absolute dreary day in Dublin today. Looking at satellite images, Dublin was least likely to have any kind of sunshine today. Here's hoping for an improvement.

    Cool and fresh here in West Clare today, but sunny most of the day, so not that bad. Everything has turned so green compared to last week!

    The ten day/two week outlooks on a number of sites is going nowhere near what MT is expecting to unfold. I'm torn, I trust MT but the pessimist in me is thinking the average sunshine and showers will win out!

    If you're looking at the likes of "Accuweather" I find they simply turn to averages after a period of 7 days.

    Next two weeks will be cooler at first , warmer towards end of month but I dont buy into MTs hot end to June. Think it will be early to mid July before low to mid twenties again

    Layman here try to interpret MT's forecast combined with Met Eireann and the BBC in the context of a BBQ on Sunday.. is it relatively safe to assume rain on Sunday arriving into Dublin in the late afternoon rather than any earlier??

    Sunday is looking like a total washout unfortunately, there may be a few drys hours in the morning but wet most of the day, Saturday is not gonna be great either.
