Not a bad start to Spring 2019 in Dublin with some nice sunny spells, all set to change later.

Cloudy in cork city but dry and mild, nice! If it was sunny I'd say it would be warm if not very warm

Despite being hazy it’s actually a really nice morning

8c

Suns come out now in Cork City breaking through the clouds. First time that its been 10c but feels warmer, usually feels colder

Gonzo

glorious day, plenty of hazy sunshine and feeling very mild.

I just read of a threat of snow for first week of April.

Seriously hope not

Was literally just saying it to my wife
Nobody wants to go from what we have now to that surely !

I did mention a while ago it could get cold with a northeasterly around the last few days of March, looks like it's been pushed back into first week of April and there could be some wintry showers at some point during that period

MidMan25

Spectacular morning in Cork, sunshine and 10 degrees.

Cold and blustery in Donegal with a wee bit of hail thrown in for good measure. Not easy going on a bike!

Donegal Storm

Same in Letterkenny, horrible day with frequent showers and a cold wind

Not a bad day and evening in Dublin although was hoping for better given last night’s stunning sunset.

MidMan25

So quiet in here the last week. Just like the weather outlook for the week ahead.

Dry mild and calm. It was a lovely day. Nice night now

FANTASTIC EVENING

Very good morning in Dublin!

If the forecasts for early April are accurate we had better make the most of these pleasant conditions as it appears that by this day next week it will seem like winter with cold temperatures and wintry showers.

Stunning day in Dublin. No jackets needed.

yep unfortunately it looks like we may have one more cold snap on the way. Cold snaps in early April are not unusual. However lying snow is very difficult to achieve away from high ground in April.

April cold snaps, when combined with plenty of sunshine often result in plenty of sunburned people because far too may people correlate getting sunburned with it being warm out when in fact this has very little to do with it. People often go out on a beautifully sunny but chilly day in May (sometimes even into early June) and think "Very chilly out so no need for sun cream" - They then get burned and blame the breeze for burning them when in fact it's simply a case that they failed to protect their skin from a pretty high level of radiation.

Was up at 5 this morning,whole place covered in frost near Arklow ,temp of 1.6c
Its hit 13.6c so far in beautiful sunshine
A diurnal range of 12c in 9 hours

Already been a month since the stupendous February 2019 warmth and one of the most gorgeous days I have ever seen, 26 February 2019. Today is lovely too but not in comparison to 26 February! This was the same day 21.2c was recorded in England - easily a new February record!

I was over in midland UK for it. An absolutely fantastic day, and the following one wasn’t bad either!

Hard to believe it’s been a month already.

Car was frosted this morning in Cork City but it quickly warmed up. Pure blue skies all day and just hitting 14 degrees or so. Felt nice and warm

It was visually nice alright, but at 12 degrees it's a bit early for the F.L.A.B. to be out in force. Hopefully we won't have to look at them for another while yet.

Indeed. Time goes by too fast for me these days to keep up.

To think this period is the same time 7 years ago that we were having a March "heatwave" with more glorious conditions and the northwest reached almost 23c on the 27th March, the warmest in Ireland for March since 1965. Still one of the nicest periods of weather I've experienced.

I see talk of wintry conditions entering MT's forecast for next week!

yep possibly very cold for a time next week with the -10 isotherm over the country next Wednesday. A chilly first week to April.
