    Yea we deffo live in different paths gonzo! Lashing here near Trim and looks to headed your way?!

    Is there some sort of microclimate around Trim? Someone I know who lives there had a big cloud over them one day when I was 25km away basking in the heat.

    damp drizzly here, even the clouds are eclipsed.

    Very warm in Dublin...however the wind has picked up big time in the last hour. Been a great few days here though...long may it continue


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,744 ✭✭✭appledrop


    God almighty you have been really unlucky in other parts of country.

    I'm starting to feel bad posting about the nice weather in Dublin!

    June has been good to us so far with nearly every day hitting 20 degrees or more.


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,885 ✭✭✭OldRio


    Just the normal here in Leitrim. Rain and cloud. Desperate stuff indeed.

    Dull, wet and with 100% humidity in Castlebar, we have only had one dry day since the start of June, I feel bad for the kids having their sports day this morning.

    I know most of you can't see the sun so it wont matter but for those of us in Dublin there's some kind of solar eclipse about to start

    Disgusting day. Dull, grey and drizzling. East Cork.

    Yes I can see it here in Co. Sligo through the thinner cloud every few minutes, quite impressive.

    What time does it end at (the eclipse not the rain) as sky trying to brighten here

    sun came out for literally 5 seconds but camera on timer so was in clouds by time it took pic

    Now lashing again jeez

    I think 1230!
    Been mostly cloudy in Dublin and it's really windy now, sun isn't showing much where I am. Sunday looks like it might actually be sunny for the whole day, fingers crossed.

    very windy here in Meath too with fast moving clouds, a fair deal of sunshine, temperature 20C. You can tell we are too near the Atlantic influence for comfort.

    Quite windy here too. At least it’s warm. Such a pity the Atlantic nearly always has to make its presence felt

    and unfortunately the Atlantic is going to be unleashed with a very swift end to the warm temperatures and dry weather. By this time next week Ireland, UK and France will be significantly cooler with conditions more similar to what we had during May. Make the most of the weekend as the Atlantic will be back with regular bouts of wind, rain and cool temperatures during next week and beyond.

    I'd take fresh Atlantic weather if it came in the form of sunshine and showers, over this persistent gloom.


  • Registered Users Posts: 13,571 ✭✭✭✭Thelonious Monk


    Really windy in Dublin, stuff blowing around the back of house etc! Hardly any sun. Disappointed as I thought this was going to be the nicest day of this warmer spell but it's been a total let down.

    Today hasn't gone to plan at all, I was expecting this tomorrow but not today. The Atlantic has edged in further east and south than expected. Temperatures back down to 19C here now after reaching 20C a few hours ago. Very cloudy too and even felt a few spits of drizzle in the wind.

    Humid and dull in Galway yet again but a fair stiff breeze offsetting that sticky feel somewhat so not what you would call an unpleasant day at all. Remarkable dull June so far though it has to be said. Even in the incredibly dull summer of last year, June itself proved to be very sunny up until about the last week of it.

    New Moon



  • Registered Users Posts: 11,505 ✭✭✭✭Xenji


    It has brightened quite nicely in Castlebar, close to 18C and blue skies now which is a big change from this morning.

    Was rainy n misty for duration of eclipse with a bit of brightness at the very end at 1220.

    Now sunny and stormy.

    Rub it in weather


  • Moderators, Science, Health & Environment Moderators Posts: 16,677 Mod ✭✭✭✭Gonzo


    a mixture of warm sunny spells and cloud here in Meath, far too windy to be enjoyable. 22C, very sticky and humid.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,069 ✭✭✭purple hands


    Tis fierce close in D6W

    Same in Dublin 16. Sweatin' buckets! 21.4c atm.


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,811 ✭✭✭Chris_5339762


    14.7c in Cork with mist, drizzle and fog. Havent seen the sun for the past three days.


  • Registered Users Posts: 93 ✭✭Arturo Delgado


    Nice and humid for the next couple of days. The future charts though are a horror show. Low pressure stubbornly parked over these islands. Dull wet grim weather . Looks like 2007 actually. So I hope that doesn't happen.


  • Registered Users Posts: 13,571 ✭✭✭✭Thelonious Monk


    Sunday's looking great so far, please please don't ruin it with cloud give us one last hurrah before the standard 14c and unsettled year round weather comes back


  • Registered Users Posts: 18,055 ✭✭✭✭namloc1980


    Manky day in east Cork. Dull and grey all day. Continuous slate grey skies would put a serious downer on you. :( Praying the weekend lives up to the forecasts of sun and warmth

    The East was like that all "summer" last year. West getting a dose of that the past few weeks

    West looks like getting cloud even on hot Sunday.

    17 to 26c could be temps Sunday

    Then it's all downhill until July and we never went uphill.

    Even today is as windy as some of the so called wind events
