Spring 2022 - General Discussion

Fairly cloudy today in Meath and 13C. I think temperatures in many places will struggle to get much past 17C today with so much cloud around. Temperatures will take a tumble from tomorrow and it will remain below average till Friday when temperatures should begin to stage a recovery.

May has been average and normal enough for me.

The warmer nights have been nice. I remember frost during the 3rd week of May 1994, early 1996 etc. Daytime temps have been normal.

The lengthening of the days is always something to behold in May.

I have found this May dissapointing largely due to a lack of warm daytime temperatures and sunshine. Far too much wind too. The warm nights were the only good thing helping to keep the heating off. The next 5 days will be chilly but I am hoping for a big lift up in temperatures during the 2nd and 3rd week of June.

Disappointing in Dublin today.

Started off beautiful + sunny like yesterday but has clouded over.

Thank f&&,k the wind has died down though.

Gone cloudy and cool here in North Dublin

Looking at the met eireann temperatures for 1pm the majority of stations are reporting between 14C and 17C for 1pm. Shannon is warmest at 18C. I doubt we will see anything higher than 20C today if we even get that. It looks like we will have to wait till sometime in June for a temperature of 21C to finally happen.

Just a slight bit cooler up here in Fanad Co. Donegal, might hit 12 or 13. Ok with a warm jacket on in the breeze.

Looks like Kerry has reached 22C so finally somewhere has broken the 20C barrier just in time before June.

There's been no exceptional warmth this May. But most days in Dublin have gotten up to 16 or 17º at least, which is closer to what you'd expect in June to be honest.

Uo to now, it's been one of the warmest Mays on record - and not just becasue the nights have been mild. The days have too.

Cracking weekend in East Cork, all in all 2022 so far has been great, mostly dry and quite sunny.

Decent weekend in Kilkenny. Yesterday was a lovely day warm sunny and summer like. Today whilst not a disappointment as it was well forecast not to be as good was a bit underwhelming. When the sun came out it was nice but out of the sun which by afternoon was more in than out it was quite chilly. That pesky breeze of course omnipresent.

Gonzo

Today was much more pleasant than I was expecting and certainly sunnier. Despite the cool temperatures it felt mild during the sunshine.

Great day out at zoo today.

It was chilly this morning but by afternoon the sunshine was out + it was beautiful.

Actually felt warmer then temperatures suggested, once you were in sunshine and very little wind for once.

Great day in Kerry, got up to 17.1C. Sunshine dawn to dusk, pic taken at 21.40.

11.8C atm

Cirrus streak over Kerry early afternoon would think shows the track of the Jet Stream, took a picture in Kerry which probably corresponds with the Satellite pic below

It's cold in Dublin today.

Only good thing is rain has held off.

I've had to put heating on for an hour to warm up house.

Dublin City Centre miserable wet and cold. Feels like it’s about 10 degrees or less.
