a cool start to the first morning of summer but at least it's sunny after a very wet day yesterday.
Dry all day Meath (Navan) Clouds keep rolling by everything ai thought a shower was due this afternoon.
This evening no doubt.
The showers are not making it to the Navan/Dunshaughlin areas. Looking at the Met Eireann radar and playing it back the showers break up as they move from Westmeath towards the Meath border. Still sunny here and back up to 18C. Easily the best day we've had since the Atlantic broke through on Saturday.
We may get some rain later tonight and early tomorrow morning and after that we are looking at a mostly dry scene for the forseeable future. May get the odd light shower on Friday and into the weekend.
Torrential rain now here in NCD, I knew it was coming, thankfully we just made it indoors before it started.
Now wet with moderate rain in Greystones. 14.2c atm. On the plus side, not windy! 😉
Good sunshine on home and away 102 for sky viewers. Bleek on home front heating is on, like a evening in January.
I still haven't had a single shower but it is pretty cloudy atm.
Edit: I swear to God, every time I post a report like this, it's not long before it's lashing which now it is!
Who the **** calls 3.57 in the summer "evening"? Although to be fair looking out it may as well be 3.57 in January.
Absolutely stunning rainbow over NCD right now!
Can be seen in SCD too. Appears to be heavy showers out at sea. They can stay there.
Could see that rainbow from Meath too. Not a drop of rain here all day.
Lovely day today and finally no wind, hopefully this continues now and the temperatures pick up a little.
Muggy and cloudy most of the day here in Waterford with some sunny spells, then the drizzle arrived. Ground is waterlogged where the top soil have been lifted and it's pooling with little rain.
That shower once it came was relentless, kept going for at least two hours. Garden waterlogged, spot flooding here and there.
Great rainbow though as some have said.
Reached 20.9C today at Dublin's favourite hotspot, Churchtown.
Not a drop down here but could see black sky to the north
Dry all day and quite nice this evening
Was out in a t shirt no bother
I call it middle of the night. Although near the summer solstice, I would describe just before 04:00 as being pre dawn. 😁
Still raining here in NCD.
I don't mind the rain when I'm tucked up in bed
Miserable morning in Dublin 7. I was planning to go for a walk but I guess I'll to knock that on the head for a while
Dry Meath.
Wow the narrow column of stationary precip on the radar from Antrim to Waterford
Slate grey skies and lashings of rain here in D3 again this morning.
The eastern seaboard areas looks to have finally got a decent drop of very much needed rain overnight, which looks like clearing all areas soon although I see that it has pepped up again in some western and southwestern parts of Dublin city, making it a miserable morning commute for some people on foot/bicycle or using pubic transport.
It was a dry and calm night near Ardagh, Longford. Nondescript morning with some blue patches here and there but there's a lovely clearance on the way soon although I may be on the way to Dublin before it gets here.
Rained non stop all night even though met site said only showers in Waterford. Garden at the side full of puddles again and like a swamp.
The 6 year old summed it up the best today.
I asked him did he want a vest under his top this morning for school.
He looked out the window, shook his head and said 'With that weather I think so'🤣
What year did we have the heatwave in Ireland, with Covid lockdowns etc I cant figure it out. Was it pre Covid? Ah remember those blissfull summer days when we had sunshine for weeks...
2018 was the absolute scorcher.
You woke up everyday looked out the window and couldn't believe it was still so sunny.
Ah those were the days.
Back to reality and summer 2021, last day of June, its raining again and 14 degrees.
FWIW, if your garden is like a swamp or waterlogged at the moment, you have drainage rather than weather problems! The ground is nowhere near saturation point in any part of Ireland other than the west right now. Even in the west, it's only poorly drained soil that should be experiencing any issues.
Incorrect, SMDs now zero parts of the northwest and midlands; very saturated there and in the midlands on moderate and poorly drained soils.
Edit: I see you edited to say "other than the west right now" 🙂
It’s summer 2022 😛
109.5mm at Valentia from 22nd-28th June, almost 500% of the weekly average. Exceptionally wet
