Casement with 265.8 hrs to 29th has had its sunniest of any month on record and with another 2 sunny days, I think this will safely mean May 2020 will be the sunniest month in Dublin since June 1957 or even July 1955. Wonder how the overall spring will rank sunshine wise. This spring will be a tough one to beat in future.

Hopefully it get's a move on, 21 degrees here atm which suggests we have a chance today of getting a nicer 22-23 degrees here which would be the warmest in several days.
