    Lovely evening in Galway. Not a breath of wind. Lake is like a mirror. The water levels are way down after a largely dry Easter weekend.

    What are they doing in the Hyacinth House?

    Hi from sunny Malta instead of rainy Tralee. 🤩 First time here. France,Spain,Italy more my continental thing. But the weather is absolutely gorgeous. 21C and gin blue skies,don't know myself.🤩 My only, very first world problem is that I didnt bring enough light clothes. But hey,no rain at all,At All! So nothing is a problem when you get a break from the constant rain.

    Dry and humid in the West this morning.

    Back in Meath. Went for a run at 630pm . Opened the heavens at 720pm. 2km back home and no rain fell here. Mad Ted.

    As the rain didnt fall at home, cut the lawn. Woo hoo.My neighbours love me at 830pm. Happy it's done before rain over next few days. Drizzling out there now.

    9⁰ Meath

    A particularly dark shade of grey here this morning in south Dublin.
    It’s dry (as in there’s no rain falling) at the moment but I reckon that won’t last long, place is still sodden.

    Fairly miserable working outdoors in Dublin today. Rain was forecast to arrive in the early evening but there has been heavy showers since morning. Feeling quite cold too.

    miserable is right. It’s just so depressing at this stage. The extra hours brightness is a waste of time really at the moment you could do nothing in it.

    another miserable day in Meath, damp and wet, nothing heavy but once again the heavy drizzle that soaks you, seems to be a theme over the past 2 weeks. The deluges of recent months seems to be replaced now by long spells of constant drizzle and misty conditions with heavier falls of rain during the night time.

    the weekend was so nice in cork, and now, back to the usual. Ground saturated and motorways starting to get flooded with the heavy drops of rain

    Sweet Jaysus arrived back in Dublin and we have been transported back to December! The mist was so bad we only seen the fields around the airport about 2 mins before landing.

    I wouldn't mind we left a very wet Paris but it wasn't cold like here and this might sound mad but even when it was lashing in Paris it wasnt as dark or dreary as here there was some light getting through if you know what I mean.

    It's that mad out there even Met Eireann are classing it as freezing rain.

    Pureza, ,while that sounds lovely, l really think that's something I would assisociate with doing around Christmas time, not during the Easter holidays!

    But fair play someone has to be positive about the current weather!

    lads, why did we get such nice weather during the 2/3 year lockdown period? I remember the outdoor dining rules being in place in April and I enjoyed it cause the weather was so good.
