well I just booked 4 weeks to the med for July/August with the announcement this evening on travel. Now I don't seem to care as much about this ridiculous weather we get here. Relief at last.

Very jealous! Don't think we will get to go abroad as still no sign of vaccine for us and our son won't be eligible for vaccine like all kids so don't know how the green cert etc will work for families.

Will you bring the good weather back with you for the rest of us stuck here!

Thelonious Monk · 28-05-2021 7:39pm

sure who knows what could change by then for the better or worse

You don't need a vaccine. A negative PCR test will suffice

Yeah that's why I booked, I should be vaccinated soon anyway, well the first dose

I wouldn't be comfortable going without being vaccinated. You never know might be lucky and get vaccine soon!

Achill was like the Med today. Wall to wall sun and 18c (in the car). My parents weather report.

The app that predicted today's cloud and rain moving West predicts more sun tomorrow afternoon but cloud n mist until then. A lot of cloud in the East too

SouthWesterly · 28-05-2021 11:21pm

Been a glorious day. Just back from a late evening walk on the beach
Heading to Dingle tomorrow

sporina · 28-05-2021 11:25pm

wer are you? enjoy Dingle.. wished I lived there during the lockdowns

pauldry · 29-05-2021 12:02am

Very heavy drizzle in Northwest tonight. Hope it gets itself out of the way before tomorrow afternoon beach trip.

appledrop · 29-05-2021 8:22am

We maxed out at 13 degrees yesterday at DA.

Newport got to 19.6, sounds lovely!

At least its dry this morning, no sunshine yet.

We might see 16 degrees later in Dublin if we are lucky.

Hoping tomorrow is nice enough for a beach day.

OldRio · 29-05-2021 9:11am

Rain last night, sporadically, for a change. Cloudy this morning.
Co.Leitrim.

namloc1980 · 29-05-2021 9:13am

Very cloudy and grey morning. Wasn't quite expecting this. Hope it brightens up soon.

4Ad · 29-05-2021 9:29am

Sitting outside in East Clare a watery looking sun but still 13 degrees, a small bit of warmth in it though..

Tigerandahalf · 29-05-2021 10:10am

Satellite photo. Hopefully it will burn off.

KanyeSouthEast · 29-05-2021 10:21am

I just hope what’s outside now isn’t it for the weekend It’s been a wet and miserable week here except for Wednesday evening and the good weather we’ve been promised is so far a cloudy morning with a temp of 12 degrees.

Gaoth Laidir · 29-05-2021 10:23am

It's lovely here drinking a mugga tae in my garden now. About 3/8 cloudcover and no real wind. Already got warmth in the sun.

namloc1980 · 29-05-2021 10:54am

The cloud is stubbornly hanging on.

appledrop · 29-05-2021 11:01am

Yipee sun shinning here now, I obviously just got up too early!

This is more like it.

Not quite there yet about 15/20km west of you. Very cloudy but bright however can see blue patches to my east, out your way.

my thoughts exactly.. its like an Olympic Race in a meteorological sense.. ... clouds are strong but no.. wait a min.. here comes the sun... its breaking thru.. and its passing the clouds out.. and yes... sun is now in the lead..

(the sun literally just came out as I was typing this)

km79 · 29-05-2021 11:46am

Cloudy but very warm in south mayo
CLOSE OUT !

spoonerhead · 29-05-2021 12:05pm

Summer in Dublin

Chris_5339762 · 29-05-2021 12:33pm

Wall to wall cloud in Cork and not going anywhere anytime soon. Only 13c.

Same yesterday too.

Sun splitting the rocks now

namloc1980 · 29-05-2021 1:30pm

Clouds are finally relenting and the sun is coming out and it's nice and warm.

East Cork.

KanyeSouthEast · 29-05-2021 1:44pm

Wall to wall cloud it actually looks more likely to rain than the sun to come out. 14 degrees. Sizzling indeed!

appledrop · 29-05-2021 1:54pm

Summer has arrived in Dublin.

Beautiful sunshine and can actually wear a summer dress without being cold!

Wine Goddess · 29-05-2021 1:54pm

Cloudy overcast and looks like it could rain here in Firhouse D24!
Ridiculous weather.
So fed up with constant grey (hate that so-called "colour") and lack of sunshine.
Yes we've had it on and off the last few days but mainly off
Delighted for those elsewhere who are getting sunshine.
Meanwhile on with cloud and dull conditions here.

KanyeSouthEast · 29-05-2021 2:11pm

Genuine question would there be that much difference in weather as seen by the last 2 posts in this thread in Dublin?

Thelonious Monk · 29-05-2021 2:30pm

It was sunny in Dublin earlier now it's more cloudy with the odd bit of sun breaking through.

yes there would be. Coastal parts of Dublin are sunny but further inland, there is high cloud. I'm sort of in the middle of the two zones, the sun is shining but there is a lot of high cloud around, especially to my west.

Cloudy now in Dublin 16 but can see clear blue sky to my east.

It's 100% the case. We live by coast and drove over to mountains here in Southside and its like a different day!

Should have stayed on Northside!

Gonzo · 29-05-2021 4:33pm

same thing here in Meath, blue skies to my east, wall of high cloud to my west.

Mimon · 29-05-2021 4:59pm

Probably half and half sun and clouds the last couple of hours after being totally sunny for a couple of hours earlier. East Westmeath.

Not complaining, just not used to the heat in my sun trap garden so some relief from the sun welcome

Gaoth Laidir · 29-05-2021 5:24pm

Rush beach was amazing earlier.

KanyeSouthEast · 29-05-2021 5:35pm

No sun at all pretty cloudy all day dry but disappointing.

SleetAndSnow · 29-05-2021 5:42pm

Started out cloudy in west cork, sunny and warm now though. Lovely!

29-05-2021 6:26pm

Sunny all day here in Arklow
Bit of a tan going on
Sea breeze beautiful
Circa 15-16c most of the day

Oscar Bravo · 29-05-2021 6:47pm

Clew Bay Co.Mayo this evening. Very little wind . Great to be out on a boat again

sporina · 29-05-2021 7:31pm

29-05-2021 7:43pm

Had a glorious day in slea head today.
Spent time sitting on the beach while the kids were in the sea

Meteorite58 · 29-05-2021 11:01pm

Down around Tusist, Kenmare today, such a fantastic day, saw 20C on the car later in the afternoon, got up to 18.4C at my site.

Pic from Dereen Gardens around 13.00, got clearer as the day went on.
