      What a glorious day, sun, gentle breeze, cuckoos calling and swallows overhead, a great day for working in the garden if a little too hot lol. It hit 18.5 just after 13.00 and had a high of 20.1 at 16.58 and its still 18 degrees now. I could get used to this, the snow of last week a distant memory.

      And a meteorite burning up in the earth's atmosphere.

      (Only joking. It's a Boeing 737, Ryanair flight RYR94PX, STN-SNN).:D

      It's not a bad little country when the sun comes out.

      Was sunny leaving home near Enfield about an hour ago. Dull and overcast with a breeze in Dublin 8....quite a contrast!

      You're doing well there as most of Dublin is overcast now.
      Must be just along the coast that is still sunny, as is often the case during fine weather spells with onshore winds.

      Beautiful day here yesterday glorious sunshine and 18 degrees. It's nice today a bit of a breeze there and it's gotten cloudy from the west. But you'd take it every day..

      Belmullet and Newport hit the first 20c of 2017 earlier (19c now)
      Dublin Airport says cloudy and 13c at 1500? It certainly isn't cloudy where I am a few miles away! :confused: 15.3c.

      Gone fairly overcast here now, 16.4c and a northwesterly wind, with clouds moving east. Rather hazy also.

      Just as I'm finished of course :) Typical.

      West Clare.

      Clear in Dublin all day but out of the sun that east wind is actually quite cold. 7pm and I needed a coat.
