    Lovely day on east coast too, but, as usual temps pegged by the Irish Sea. 13.4c atm right by the sea in Greystones.

    BBC weather have the break coming Monday.

    For the North…

    Outlook for Sunday to Tuesday

    Sunday is expected to be another dry and fine day with lots of sunshine. Monday will have a dry and bright start to the day, but it will turn cloudier in the afternoon with a few showers developing. These showers will be locally heavy with a risk of thunder. Tuesday will have a mixture of sunny spells and some heavy and thundery showers. Showers will ease later in the day.

    This weather is the sweet spot for me. Not too hot but just right for me. I could live in this climate.

    My Flowers and Vegetables are doing well thanks to wet ground (poor drainage thanks to clay) and a good mulch of well rotted manure.

    Oak Park reporting 29% humidity at 15:00, I don't recall every seeing humidity that low in Ireland before. @sryanbruen do you happen to have any records on humidity? Couldn't find much online.

    23C and 34% humidity here just up the road in South Kildare.

    I'll be very sorry to see this weather break. Next weekend right through into the bank holiday weekend is looking unsettled unfortunately and fingers crossed now we don't end up with a repeat of the 2020 summer from June onwards following a lovely spring.



  • Moderators, Science, Health & Environment Moderators Posts: 17,423 Mod ✭✭✭✭Gonzo


    We had several weeks of blue skies before Easter, then a week long deluge during Easter and then back to the blue skies just after Easter and we have another 5/6 days of good weather to come. I think the main worry for me definitely is how will this summer pan out because this Spring has seen more summer than any stage over the past 2 years. Fingers crossed that the upcoming return to normal service is only a 2 week interruption at most and then back to some settled weather mid June. Time will tell.

    Incredible weather. Spring 2020 was very nice from memory but Spring 2025 has been wonderful too and probably even better although I don't have the data to prove it.

    Have you enjoyed the last 3 weeks of sun Gonzo? Make sure you are not waiting for summer to arrive or it will be September! Embrace the light.

    21ºc here in carrick on shannon lovely unbroken sun 🌞 I feel for those on the east coast where temperatures are 17ºc to 20ºc , Newport mayo had a temperature of 23.4ºc an hour ago 😀



  • Moderators, Home & Garden Moderators, Science, Health & Environment Moderators Posts: 18,933 Mod ✭✭✭✭DOCARCH


    With this run of great weather I start to worry what summer will bring! As often said, the weather tends to balance itself out. I hope it waits for autumn for wet and windy!



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 312 ✭✭Thunder87


    Yep, the breeze has died away now so it's lovely and warm but it was positively chilly again this morning with the wind. Thankfully my balcony is south west facing so we're totally sheltered from the wind and being 4 stories up we get sunshine until well after 9pm now, so no complaints at all!

    What a beautiful evening, enjoying the Friday night Fish n Chips at our table with a view 😃

    Met say 26c in west, Saturday 😍 Lovin this omega block

    Dry yet again on Saturday with unbroken sunshine. Top temperatures will range 17c along eastern fringes to 25c further west, possibly climbing to 26c in Connacht, all in light to moderate easterly or variable breezes.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,455 ✭✭✭✭Cluedo Monopoly


    Yeah there is some amount of turf being cut and it's drying fast. Some fresh stuff...

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,378 ✭✭✭Dazler97


    Omg is all that yours ? Do you sell it in winter or is it personal use 🤔



  • Moderators, Science, Health & Environment Moderators Posts: 12,709 Mod ✭✭✭✭Meteorite58


    Really nice Robwindstorm, did you put it together yourself?



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,455 ✭✭✭✭Cluedo Monopoly


    The turf? Not mine. I don't burn turf anymore. You can't smoke it Dazler 😉

    Ya this is the sunniest it's been for a couple of years. In 2018 weather stayed good right through Summer and 2020 was poor. So a 50/50 outcome. But this is Ireland so Atlantic bound for a spell soon. Hopefully itl interact with Azores high at times.
