    Beautiful summer's day in Loughlinstown, cloud stayed just to the north of here all day so far.

    It's so frustrating seeing our neighbours across the water doing so well this week with sunshine and high temperatures while most of us here in Ireland are chasing cloud around as usual

    That will always be the way. Over the past week we haven't done too bad tho, particularly yesterday was lovely everywhere and a few nice days last week. Tomorrow and Thursday still look decent with low twenties across most of the country away from coastal areas. The weekend will be a write off tho and that will be everywhere, London and the south east of Engalnd won't escape the weekend muck either.

    Overcast but balmy in Cork now, you'll take it 🙂



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,673 ✭✭✭pauldry


    Dry bright n not windy in Sligo. You'll take that for sure. Not sunny but sun is poking through at intervals.

    That's it now. It'll be Christmas before we know it.

    Feeling very warm and muggy here at 19C and 68% humidity.

    I have been at home in London for the last week, weather, bar two days has been beautiful and set to continue for another couple of days.

    When I lived in London I used to go to Spain for some sun, now I live in Ireland I go to London for some sun (half joking)!

    I'm always amused when Irish people go to the beach when it's any way warm or sunny... the beach is always cold and windy! What a waste of rare warm weather! I'd rather go to the beach in the autumn or winter.

    IgCorcaigh, we go to beach all year around as live close but I know what you mean.

    Some days you get out of car in summer, feel the wind and go this was a bad idea🤣

    But every summer in Ireland you will usually get those 2 or 3 'perfect' beach days if you play your cards right.

    2018 was obviously the exception with non stop sunny days.

    17c and humid here in carrick



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,562 ✭✭✭mcburns07


    18 degrees here in Cork at almost 11pm. Cracking evening.



  • Moderators, Science, Health & Environment Moderators Posts: 17,908 Mod ✭✭✭✭Gonzo


    The temperature today was lovely but the day gets a thumbs down from me for the blanket of cloud. I would trade it for lower temperatures but loads of sunshine. Hopefully we all have much better luck tomorrow and Thursday.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,140 ✭✭✭beggars_bush


    a bad day for blight on spuds

    Sunset will continue to get later - albeit by just a few seconds - for the next few days before retreating back earlier, slowly at first. The 21st is the longest daylight hours but not the latest sunset.

    Similarly, the earliest sunrise was a few days ago and is already getting later.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,956 ✭✭✭Dazler97


    I had forgotten that mornings will go first rather than evenings but you know what I mean :)



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 14,640 ✭✭✭✭JRant


    Slate grey skies and misty rain here in Dublin 3 😭

    "Well, yeah, you know, that's just, like, your opinion, man"



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 7,360 ✭✭✭appledrop


    Same here in NCD, but it is meant to brighten up and be lovely in afternoon so we will wait and see.

    Had a look at one of the radar maps and there's a lovely bit of cloud settled over Dublin that looks like it's going nowhere. The rest of the country looks like it'll be a fine day.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,673 ✭✭✭pauldry


    Misty in Sligo but misty with blue bits in sky.

    13-8 in favour of good days here so far this Summer but 4-17 against warm days (17c or more)



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 16,150 ✭✭✭✭Thelonious Monk


    Supposed to get to 28c here in London today, roasting already. I'm back in Dublin in a few days for a while and the outlook looks grim af. Summer just doesn't seem to be happening in Ireland this year, apart from in Arklow of course as usual.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 15,808 ✭✭✭✭Supercell


    The lightest of light drizzle here, barely enough to dampen surfaces. This would be the 12th day with no measurable rain if this doesn't amount to more.

    Compared to historical warm days we havent done so bad this month all the same, could easily see second place being reached before the month is out, lets hope its not a 2015! :

    If warm days count as greater than 21c we've had zero......in 2022!

    Our max was 20.1c

    Some inclement weather from Friday onwards. Dunno how long it will last but there might be a break from it for a few days next week.

    Rainfall for month might be back to 100 per cent after June 30th. We've had 37mm so far in 21 days.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,458 ✭✭✭pad199207


    Mild and humid morning



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,495 ✭✭✭✭leahyl


    Next week really isn't looking good is it? I have Elton John on the 1st and at the moment the weather is looking shocking 😔



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 14,640 ✭✭✭✭JRant


    Only 15 degrees here today and no signs of improvement. Hoping for a better afternoon but with no wind and that cloud cover taking up residency over Dublin I'm not planning on any trips to the beach today. If the sun came out today it would be a belter as it's the first flat calm day in a good while.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 15,808 ✭✭✭✭Supercell


    Satellite is looking promising last hour or so for things to brighten up in the midlands and east at least. Fingers crossed, light drizzle stopped here now.
