Just wondering what causes that significant jump in temps?

Just annoys me a bit when people talk of the Wicklow mtns when most of the higher ground, is uninhabited. At the lower slopes of many mountains in the midlands tomorrow they are every bit as much 'places to be'. I know for Dublin folk the Dublin and Wicklow mountains are the nearest high ground for you, on your doorstep. But places like Laragh and Roundwood are 'only' 140m asl!

Villain would be familiar with it, he drives up for wintry events and sometimes uses a drone. This pic doesn't do it justice. Amazing at night time.
kod87 wrote: » Yes but it causes temps to rise everywhere even thought the front is over the south west and then temps drop dramatically despite the (warm) front moving northwards overnight before retreating. The 2 things don't match up in a way that makes any sense.

nagdefy wrote: » No it's a house that organises events, walks and so forth. I'm back to the back of that house about a mile. It's higher ground again. Towards the wind farm? Some of the houses have beautiful views. Went to school in Knockbeg so knew a lot of Tullow lads i'd be friendly with. I'm probably a few years older than yourself though, 41.
