Clearly we've not had the same level of nice weather here in West Clare.

Today was remarkably sunny, however temperatures have been very disappointing being stuck at 12°c all day long. Too cool to sit out in a tshirt despite the sun.

Yesterday was warm (16°c) but stubbornly overcast, with some light rain yesterday evening.

Thursday was very warm, up to 20°c, however sunny periods were limited, still the best day of the spell.

Wednesday, very sunny but again also quite cool.

Thats a sea breeze for you at this time of year. I remember leaving 29°c in South Laois during Summer 2018 and going to Wexford for a day at The Raven beach. 18°c there in an easterly sea breeze. Felt freezing despite the clear blue sky! Got a master sunburn for my efforts though!

reached 20C earlier in Dunshaughlin, still very warm outside, best day of the year easily and hopefully many more of these from early May to late September.

Strange how here in Ireland our cloudier days are milder/warmer than our sunny days alot of the time...

Glorious glorious spell of weather. Absolutely stunner of a day here today. Would make you forget your troubles.

20C observed at Phoenix Park. 19C here at Dunshaughlin. Looks like April may have already beaten last June for warmth in Leinster with several warm days in a row now.

clouding over a bit in cork city but still warm! Got a bit burnt! Lovely day

Well thankfully those clouds burned off and absolutely stunning in back garden.

Had to put on suncream as I was getting burnt!

Barbecue fired up yet again.

This is the life despite the restrictions!

after a cloudy morning, the skies turned blue very quickly and dazzling sunshine ever since, 19C here now, an absolute stunning day, possibly the best day of this warm spell so far.

The far western fringes of Ireland is significantly colder and a sign of things to come for tomorrow.

Definitely the best day so far for the east anyway

Glorious day in meath, our garden that is well sheltered from any breeze, currently says 27c , its roasting, go beyond the hedges, its not so roasting, 18.4c, but might get the bbq out

Nice sunny morning here with temperatures reaching 16.0°c. Around 11.30am it clouded over for an hour and a drop in temperatures back down to 13.8°c. The cloud broke up quickly and temperatures responded climbing back to a current level of 18.8°c.

This morning reminds me of how a "cold front" pushes through eastern Spain.

Of note now is the air is less humid and visibility is much improved here in South Laois.

Do because we had glorious weather last Easter I remember we spent it in Skerries + it was like been abroad. They the weather was crap all summer so take it while you can!

no sun at all here today but it's still fairly mild. I remember Easter last year well, it was the only few days of warmth we got for the entire Spring and early summer period. I think it got to 22C here during Easter Sunday last year and then a very cold pattern followed a few days later which lasted all the way to the final few days of June. Thankfully the cold conditions from tomorrow look very short lived, should turn milder mid way through next week.

We're gonna miss this when the weather breaks and turns northerly - that said it looks like a short disruption with temps recovering from midweek.

Casement reached 20.1C earlier today, a fantastic temperature for the time of year.

Reached 19C in Dunshaughlin today despite the very hazy conditions.

Meteorite58

Overcast from high cloud and hazy, mild getting up to 17.1C , a few drops on and off for a time late afternoon.

Great to see activity on the land on the way home from work here in Kerry, sowing potatoes I believe .

A lovely still and balmy evening in Cork City centre.

No crowds, no noise, little traffic...

I will miss some parts of the "lockdown" when it's over.

One of the weather presenters was saying the other day that we badly needed rain, i must say i was not expecting to hear that after all the rain we've had in recent times!

I was amazed by that too, the land has just about recovered from the 7 month deluge. Now I would like 6 months of very dry conditions and let it rain from October.

Looks like some fairly heavy pulses of rain in the east and south on Sunday, looks unpleasant in a brisk enough N-NE wind and fairly cold too
