Yep some serious heat in that sun today, very noticeable compared to the past few weeks, had to go in and put sun cream on earlier as could feel myself burning.

Today is as nice as any other day this month here, Gonzo's predictions definitely haven't come to pass!

Cloudy all day in cork city. Just got very dark and had a very heavy shower.

Variances across the country this week are crazy!

your very lucky, it's drizzly and cold here in Meath. Almost a 10C drop on this time yesterday!

Temperatures struggling to reach double figures across much of Meath, Dublin, Kildare, Offally and Wicklow.

Is cold here today in North County Dublin. About 11 degrees.

Looks like it going to rain all day but hasn't yet. I'd say it's on the way.

Big change to yesterday but well predicted.

Another lovely day here in Castlebar with long spells of sunshine. Great visibility. No dirt in that northerly airflow!

Yesterday morning, despite the 'dirty' air mass, was just about the most beautiful I have seen this year. Solid hazy blue sky and golden sun. This morning was in total contrast to that, dull and gloomy with the slight hint of a damp chill (despite no rain falling at all). As Gonzo said, it served as a almost cruel reminder that we are still in April. Sun breaking through now and despite the 13-14 temp, it feels every bit as warm in it as recent days. (as noted by Donegal Storm)

Shows what a huge difference the sun can make at this time of year, technically only 11C here yet I was roasting in the garden in shorts and t-shirt.

The day has suddenly changed here now with black cumulus clouds bubbling up and some spits of rain. Maybe you weren't so wrong after all :pac:

Also today is the first time I've really noticed land based convection this year, hopefully we start seeing mention of thundery showers the the forecasts from now on

Lashing? Barely a heavy mist

Gonzo

a damp, cold and drizzly evening here in Meath, just after putting the heating on for the first time in 2 weeks and will be lighting the fire soon as well.

9.4c in North Kerry. 10degree drop on yesterday.

Cloudy and had a drop (literally) of rain.
Hopes were up and dashed

Fire lit in a Louth since 6pm . A dull, still , cold , depressing day . Apart from a 2 hour walk I did very little. Fires are great on days like this !

Meteorite58

Likewise feeling cool with no direct sunlight all day, 9.8C now and put the heat on for an hour .

Rainfall amounts not huge apart from parts of Leinster earlier in the day and showers around Cork late afternoon. Just to note the models over done the rainfall predictions the last few days as seen in the forecasts , Fri was looking like heavy localized showers but did not materialize and again today heavy showers were predicted for Southern counties but not much of note there.

Not enough heat really for any convective showers to appear unfortunately.

Sky is a beautiful purple colour which is surprising because it was a such a cloudy day today.

Hopefully that means tomorrow might be nice.

Another day that wasn't as bad as expected in Dublin 5, no rain at all. Cloudy though.

Harry Palmr

A light drizzle upon my garden, most welcome. Now feck off before I have to go out tomorrow.

More like a few spits in the air ,had one heavy drizzle shower at 22:30

lovely day in Meath, mostly sunny and dry, milder than yesterday too with a temperature of 12C. Looks like we might stay dry till about Wednesday.

Beautiful sunny day here beside the coast in Dun Laoghaire, Co Dublin.

As the east never really got in on the past two weeks of 'heatwave' action the temps today feel no colder really than the previous few days.

It actually feels milder than many of the days over the past 2 weeks due to the lack of that chilling breeze.

Harry Palmr

Chilly!

Took until lunchtime to really brighten up

Lovely day here earlier but cloudy the last few hours although its starting to break up again.
You could even make out Venus clearly in the deep blue sky.

100% - warmest day on the East coast I think , especially if you were in a nice sunny spot. That cold easterly breeze was gone.

Another day of unbroken sunshine here as well, could see shower clouds to the south all day but they never encroached

Has been a very dry 6 weeks but looks like we might finally run out of luck over the rest of the week, still nothing too wet in the forecast but definitely more so than we've become used to
