    BBC weather forecast summary ...

    I'm emigrating...

    Summary
    Often unsettled and cooler than normal.
    An unseasonably stormy end to May is heralding a cool start to meteorological summer, with an often unsettled and cool pattern persisting through June.
    This pattern will occasionally be broken up be high pressure systems that build in from the southwest, but these will tend to be short-lived settled spells.
    Rain will most frequently take the form of heavy or thundery afternoon showers, but there is a chance of more unseasonably stormy days around mid-June.
    Although there is a growing chance for warmer weather later, it looks like June will stay cooler than normal and more springlike.

    I was at the very edge of that shower. Shower looks more intense now, looking towards the southeast

    This will be a big improvement on autumnlike :pac:

    I'd take that forecast with a pinch of salt, accuracy beyond 5 days is very low.

    Shocker again. Cool and windy with heavy downpours thrown in. Awful altogether.

    Enjoy from Wednesday on. A few days of heat.


  • Registered Users Posts: 13,570 ✭✭✭✭Thelonious Monk


    I still don't see anything over 14 or 15c forecast until Sunday, which will be 17c, I'd hardly call it heat!

    17c is a scorcher by these standards.

    It strikes me that the bbc June forecast is worse for the U.K. than Ireland as the lows are, unusually, to their northeast and the battling high pressure to their south west. Which could benefit us. Fingers crossed.

    True yeah 17 when the sun comes out will be like being on the Med the way things have been


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,031 ✭✭✭redsteveireland


    Just can't shift that cursed wind during the day lowering the temps.
    Thought I could make out some noctilucent clouds to my west just now, very difficult with all the street lights. Haven't seen them in a long time.

    Another horrible morning. Raining and cool yet again. It's fairly depressing at this stage.

    East Cork.

    Yeah, just looked at the radar and it looks to be raining in the city. Just a smooth blanket of grey here (with a little slice of blue to the NE) on the edge of that system.
