The area of Galway, Mayo, Donegal combined is almost the area of Leinster

I posted this in the general chat but the accumulated totals between now and this time next week are similar on both GFS and ECM. It's not just heavy thundery showers making up these totals either. Monday is maybe more showery but Tuesday and Thursday it's looking like lighter, persistent rain and Friday is looking like heavy persistent rain in late afternoon (based on current models).

A very zonal westerly setup looks certain for the remainder of July with average or slightly cooler than average temperatures and plenty of rain or showers. The GFS 00z has a lovely Azores high sitting over us by the end but this is very much an outlier. Hopefully within the next week we will see another spell of 3 to 4 settled days developing before the end of July.

GFS 6z again very similar to the 00z and pumps out the most extreme outlier for the operational run with a heat plume right at the end.

Really shows the of looking at only Op run, the control is nearly a mirror image

models today for the rest of July don't look quite as bleak as yesterdays, perhaps a trend of an improving situation later next week.

Weather this Summer isn't near as bad as last Summer temp wise at least. A lot of thunderstorms in the coming days. Warm sunshine too so over 20c in most places. A moderate risk of drier weather next week with similar temperatures but the evolving low of this week could yet slow down and delay the azores high further.

Gonzo

This mornings models don't give much comfort of an improving situation any time soon. Looks relatively cool and very unsettled right up to 2nd of August with a north-west to south-east alignment of the jetstream right over us and the Azores staying well to the south.

Gonzo

Not the sort of ensemble you want to be seeing in the middle of Summer, an overall cooling trend and things staying wet and unsettled from start to finish. Once we get the warmish air out of the way by Saturday we're into a cool north-westerly pancake flow from the Atlantic for the forseeable future. I hope we see a more positive change develop next week, that this isn't summer going down the tubes.

Historically, August wouldn't fill you with confidence. It was good while it lasted folks.

August Bank Holiday looking lovely on the models this morning dry and temps well into the 20s if its any consolation.

I'm going to take with this. We were away at the beginning of July and brought home some lovely weather and we are going away next week and back for the bank holiday weekend so planning on bringing it back again.
