I might be wrong but it felt like 17-18C yesterday for the whole afternoon in Galway West (I am 15 miles from the coast). Wouldn't that be the average high for June?

brrr

Depends where you are. 9c in Kildare is brrrr but 16 and 17 on South Coast. Pleasant here in Cork but certainly not summery save when the sun is out.

It's June , why do I feel so cold? Why am I wearing a fleece out ? Why do I need a blanket on me watching TV in the evenings.

Has anyone the number for customer support?

When the sun does come out it’s flipping roasting- unfortunately that is quite intermittent.

FFS that’s grim for the rest of June.

Beautiful out in Fenit early this afternoon, a coolness in the breeze though but loads of sunshine and blue skies.

Thursday's forecast for Wicklow lunchtime, near 60km/h gusts, a decent sup of rain and a real-feel temperature of 6-8 degrees. If you told me this was a March forecast I'd be disappointed, let alone June!

Chatting to some kids doing the exams today and they're struggling with the cold in the exam hall - awaiting a decision on if they can bring in hot water bottles!

Cold with intermittent drizzle in Celbridge.

it’s nowhere near roasting

Models continue to trend towards a very wet and cool pattern from this weekend with plenty of rain from Friday onwards. I'd imagine there will be plenty of people cutting their lawns on Thursday.

at least it’s happening now. By the time July comes around the weather could well improve significantly.

I'm thinking tomorrow will be the last chance to get the grass cut here - Thursday looks wet from early.

I was at a shopping centre next to the airport and the car park flooded in about 30 minutes. It was very intense for a couple of hours. The water drained off very quickly though once the rain passed.

Pleasant (if overcast) evening here now in SE Mallorca. 23C.

So cold last night had the heating on before I went to bed and slept with a pair of socks on ! NCD .

I hardly ever wear socks in bed in wintertime .

When, oh when will we get some summer ?

Sammy2012

Is there any signs/hope of the weather settling down? Was in work today and was freezing all day. It's more like February here this evening than June.

I held off last night with the heating but I've had enough tonight, stuck it on for an hour, feck that if the calendar didn't say June I wouldn't dream of not having it on!

I'm in Sneem at the moment and spent today over on the Beara peninsula. It was a stunning day, wall to wall sunshine, very clear skies so I was able to hike and had a swim at Allihies . But the breeze was cold and my phone temperature said it was just 15 degrees. Whatever direction this breeze is coming from its certainly cold. However I would take this kind of weather over muggy rain anyday.

Dazler97

Yes I noticed that too last week all the Scandinavian countries especially towards the acrtic circle where several degrees above average, our summers are getting dier

never understood where does this BS Irish saying originates from. Its +24-+28 in Baltic these days. If anything, the whole Europe should be screaming " Ireland" whenever they get miserable.
