    Week is promised good. I let out a bunch of yearling heifers yesterday, will add a few more out this evening.
    Could make for a very short winter.

    I wouldn't be too sure about that. This coming week will be dry but the following week is looking cold, wet and windy at the moment.
    Hopefully this won't happen and the dry weather will continue, time will tell.

    I'd rather get good weather in April than March.

    I was looking at the tide here today for an hour it's not looking great at all plus 2 days ago the wind was from the south east and you could hear things from 3 miles to the west of me which is not a great sign

    So what do these things suggest? Wind? Rain? Cold?

    Beautiful day here although chilly when the sun went behind the clouds. It's great to be able to work without wearing a hat and coat.

    idk what forecast ye are looking at but met are promising it settled and fine for the next 8 days. Feck leaving cattle in sheds when its fine and dry out. They are healthier outside and thrive better

    I let 3 yearling heifers out today cause I'm sick of bedding and cleaning their pen. I've another 10 stronger ones that I'm going to let out tomorrow. Fingers crossed hopefully they will stay out and make it to when I can let them into the WBC which is normally around the 15th of March.

    Rain and I'd say a cold spell

    It is showing that in the forecast. So your nature weather forecasting skills are spot on.

    I don't know where some get their weather forcasts from.myself it's met eireann & predominantly the uk met office through the bbc news channel,as i find met eireann often very pessimistic on a Sunday for the week ahead.

    It's turning colder from the north after Wednesday,no sight,nor mention of rain on ahead into the weekend.

    Today felt like it was maybe the 28th March alright. Enjoy anyhow. Wouldn't last night have been the night to spring the clocks forward & a extra hour of light after work in the evening for people.

    Great spell of weather, Cattle outside are flying it since letting them out, much happier and thriving already. Weather due to break midweek, becoming milder with wind and rain, either way I've stolen 2 weeks from the winter by letting them out


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,770 ✭✭✭✭Say my name


    Just after seeing 17c forecast for the 18th on the GFS. Could do with that. Bring it on.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,570 ✭✭✭Mooooo

    Irlandesa.

    16c now on that same forecast model. (Ye didn't bank it on time).
    12c on another.

    Some giving two weeks of high pressure.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,770 ✭✭✭✭Say my name


    Wind has really just kicked up a gear in the past few minutes in this part of the southeast.
    It was strong before but it's stronger now.

    There'll be damage done with this.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 355 ✭✭The Rabbi


    Electricity off here for an hour 22.45 to 23.45. The wind was stronger an hour earlier.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,292 ✭✭✭✭Nekarsulm


    Right where Cavan, Longford and Leitrim meet, we are having thunder, lightning, rain, sleet and gusting wind. All at the same time.
    Last night was bitterly cold...
    Hard weather on lambs.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 31,348 ✭✭✭✭whelan2


    Really cold here too. Hail shower not so long ago too


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,570 ✭✭✭Mooooo

    I didn't let mine out today was tempted to let them out after reading them this morning but glad they were in this evening. I'd say they'll be in for a few days now


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,993 ✭✭✭dzer2


    Poor morning but afternoon has improved
    Let the cows back in as they were stood at the gap. No need to herd them. Hope it dries up a bit could let them out again Thursday


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,770 ✭✭✭✭Say my name


    Now isn't that a peach of a summer's day.

    15 degrees. Scorchio.

    Grass is taking it all in.

    14° in my part of west Cork. Spent the day spreading the first fert of the year on silage ground. At dinnertime I was tempted to get the scissors to the long sleeved shirt. The nice long evening should put people in good humour.
