Spring 2021 General Discussion

daniel_t1409

I know it's early to start this thread but in fairness the winter thread was started in August so.....:P.

Last spring was one of the best ever - basically 2-3 months of sunshine and very little rain, resulting in a hosepipe ban. Followed by one of the dullest, wettest summers.

There is still plenty of winter left but I just want to start some early discussion on this spring, predictions, etc.

I would like a nice dry spring to give the ground a chance to dry out - it's been saturated since last June.

That’s the hard part! A sustained spell like 2013, 2014 and 2018 would be most welcome

Yeah I mean it's unlikely but one can but dream

At least it's still Spring technically, I don't see anything remarkable in forecasts on the way but hopefully it starts to feel like summer at some stage in June and stays that way for a while

A dry morning here in Castlebar with good sunshine and just light winds.

11 degrees here in Dublin and still raining.

It's miserable. A great start to the ' heatwave"

I want to see MM do his speech this evening out in the rain, while taking about outdoor summer dining until July.

Phone App said it would stay like this all day

I listen to the Met Eireann forecast just before 8am on the radio every day. A complete waste of time.

Damp morning in Naas but it's slowly improving and brightening up, I'd say it will be a nice afternoon.

Still raining in limerick, did not stop once since 12pm yesterday. Disgusting

Still raining here aswell in NCD. So much for their forecast of more settled weather from Thursday onwards, yeah right.

I'm not holding out much hope now for the 'warm' weekend that was predicted earlier in week.

After a day of rain here near Castlebar the sun has appeared just as its beginning to set. Nice day ahead in the west tomorrow.

Yes indeed Oscar Bravo. Got a quick snap of it earlier. Lovely to see the setting sun find that chink of a gap beneath the edge of that weather front after a dreary day.
Recorded 11mm of rain here today near Castlebar. Hoping for another evening soon like what we got here in Central Mayo yesterday which was one of the nicest in a long time.

sporina

i don't think it had stopped raining since am in Cork City today - its still at it :eek:

appledrop

Forecast is not good in NCD for tomorrow. Rain all day and highs of only 11 - 12 degrees.

I hope the forecast is wrong.

I went to work in my lovely white summer trousers today and I wasn't the only one!

By lunchtime we all had our coats on and were trying to avoid the muck from the puddles!

Nothing wrong with the forecast for today. Today was never outlined to be a good day here in Ireland with rain or showers and cooler conditions in the forecast.

The best of the weather looks to be Saturday to about Monday or maybe Tuesday. Next week was starting to look promising but the models have backed off the idea of warm and dry for next week with the Atlantic regaining control from about Tuesday. At least we should have 2 to 3 nice days over the weekend and on Monday.

The forecast was not 10 hours of non stop heavey rain with highs of 12°c..

18;33pm May 27th lights on in kitchen peeing down with rain 11 degrees it’s a fuxkin disgrace really. Few nice hours yesterday evening and that’s it. No sign of any settled weather.

There is a sign of settled weather. The weekend and first few days of next week should be mainly dry and relatively warm for most of Ireland.

Grim day today, cool and wet. Hard to believe after sitting out the back garden most of yesterday afternoon and evening with the shorts on and a few nice cool beers.
