Spring 2024 - General Discussion

was a nice day in cork city yesterday! Stayed bright until about 20:15 I’d say and was dry so was able to get out and about. Wet and grey again this morning though

A wet morning in North Kildare

Some big totals already in the South according to Met Eireann's Weather Observations Website although not sure how accurate some of those are. The radar is showing very heavy rain in North Kerry and Limerick at the moment, is the rain system we have the yellow warning for in the South East tracking further westward?

Got out for walk earlier and it was absolutely p***ing down! Had a good long rain coat on but lower legs still got saturated! Was still glad I got out though. It seems to have eased a bit now.

We somehow managed to escape the rain so far in west Galway but the Radar looks really bad in the East and South. That seems to be a pattern recently for some reason.

Yes I hope it doesn't get too good too quickly in late spring/early summer and then bust like last year.

On a separate note, it's been very wet in Meath but in the extreme North Eastern region from around Carlingford in Co. Louth,through Co. Down and Antrim, these areas seem to be receiving monstrous amounts of rain. Even todays rain has reached those area's. From the flooding in them areas during the winter to now, the rain seems to intensify over the region from all directions. I wonder what the rainfall totals are in the last 6 months or so.

I am banking on a dry May and June like last year in terms of holidays booked. Last year we got only 50% of normal rainfall in those 2 months combined and loads of sunshine.

Lashing. Noah sun at all.

24.6mm so far here in Arklow and pouring down still

well we could need Noahs help soon!

15mm at the North end and still at it, only 5.7C

Aw stop. Lights on all day. M i s e r a b l e.

8° Meath.
