Summer 2021 General Discussion

I'll let Syran look at the finer detail but one of the warmest nights on record (with respect to the national average) occurred on July 22nd 2019, where the national mean minima only fell down to 17.3c. Shannon Apt had a min of just 18.9c that night/morning.

It is painful at the moment but it's for the greater good moving to a modern backend. We'll get used to the new format and things will improve over time regarding functionality, hopefully to a level where it's objectively "better" than the old boards. There's a notice on the top of the page (for me anyway) regarding post dates btw.

"Downtime To Retrieve My Forums

Hello all. To allow us to migrate My Forums and also to update latest post date, we will have scheduled downtime tomorrow Tue 20th July at 6pm for approximately one hour. We apologise for the inconvenience but hope that it will make a huge improvement for users. Thank you."

You can sing that again re: August 1995. That month was just pure sex, Irish weather-wise. 😍

Jeez lads it's very warm tonight

It's 22c here in Carrick on Shannon, tomorrow could see 29c before afternoon thunderstorms role in, Wednesday will reach 30c for a time, bring it on....

Yes, 8pm seems insanely late for a daily peak - at least during summer under a relatively stable airmass - and even more so given it's 29º.

It does. While the evenings have really been holding the heat here (still above 20C now 🥵 ) at 8pm we were 2c below the daily max

Holy ****, Malin head is to Ireland to what San Francisco is to California in terms of going from the summer furnace to a fridge.

Remember working moving a piano somewhere north of San Fran and it was 40C, was delighted to come across the Golden Gate into 16C in the afternoon as the fog was rolling in.

Absolutely loving this weather, puts people in a great humour ?(although I do feel for the farmers etc.)

Seeing MT's forecast today is just great, still warm temps all around, long may it continue
