A new thread for Summer general discussion.
Cloudy start in Greystones. 11.7c atm.
Casement 24 degrees at 2pm
Landed back in Dublin earlier after a week of unbroken sunshine in the Med, immediately after deactivating flight mode I get a "Severe Weather Notification" from my weather app for heavy rain later!
Can't really comment on what the month has been like so far but the day I left (last Sunday) was miserable with low cloud and drizzle. This afternoon is mostly cloudy with a chilly breeze but warm enough when sheltered from the wind.

"Weather warning upgraded to Orange now for Donegal, Leitrim and Sligo from midnight tonight to 4am Monday"
So near yet so far. Celbridge right now is so warm but so dull.
Get a flight to galway , it's sorchio 🤣
Overcast and warm morning to start in Carlingford and then blue skies broke through at midday. Beautiful.
Navan dull now this evening.......what's imminent.....
22⁰ Meath
Another absolute stunning day here in NCD.
So nice for everyone when the good weather falls on the weekend.
It remained overcast all evening in Celbridge and raindrops arriving now. A very warm but disappointing day here after a promising start this morning.
Beautiful today and very warm in NCD .
Just had the start of torrential rain there st 8 o'c ..some warning with clouds but the glass of wine dulled the urgency !
Decamped inside now , but happy that we finally got a good weekend dry with nice warm sun shine 🍹
Taken from twitter can’t post tweets any more since the update
Official SYNOP sites which recorded their warmest day of the year thus far
Toasty overnight? Drops off after 4am back to 15/16
Ironically both Casement and Dublin Airport are only 19°c now.
The rain has just arrived so I'd day that accounts for the drop in temperature which I'm glad of, last night was roasting trying to sleep, nice cool air coming into the house now.
What's the irony of that? Apologies in advance if I missed something earlier.
Because it's forecast to be warmer at 4am than it is now.
Ahhhhh, got ya but I don't think that's irony as the forecasted temperatures are what are expected.
9pm
Belmullet 20 degrees
Finner 20
Newport 20
Shannon 20
Lovely day in North Donegal, nicer than yesterday, and can feel the warmth in the air today. Only complaint is the wind which has not let up much in the last few weeks.
Overall I don't think this summer has been that bad, no prolonged spell of hot sunny weather, but quite a few fairly decent days, so will take that.
Oh to get a run of 5-6 days of today's weather
As we look out on tonight's lightning show
Wow proper storm in Galway
High of 22.8C and still 19.3C here in Kerry
An invasion of bugs and insects around the house tonight at every window, had to shut them all, very warm in the house!
Amazing lightning display in Galway. Both fork and sheet with no rain yet. Warm too.
22°c here in Kildare at midnight
Nice warm humid night in Dublin, 19C with over 90% humidity and totally calm, nights where you can comfortably sit out in shorts and t-shirt after midnight are such a rarity in this country
Humidity tonight is insane. Been sweating like hell all night and sinuses fecked
Casement was the warmest place yesterday with 24.3 degrees. Phoenix Park, Mullingar and Shannon all got to around 23.
Blue skies in North Dublin here again this morning
A bright start to the day. 13C and some sunshine following a very warm and spectacular night. (Oh my)
Glad we got the lawns cut yesterday.
Leitrim
Rained for about half an hour at 5am, extremely warm night. Didn't dip below 17c i think. Looks like being another nice warm day anyway. Currently 17c N Kildare
wore a T-shirt this morning heading to work for the first time this summer. Hope the weather is better in the capital than it is in the mid west where I am now because it’s very cloudy here and almost threatening rain.
Nice morning again in Dublin although a little windy…pretty warm already. Hopefully stays nice for the Olympians this afternoon in Dublin
