    Feeling much colder today, horrible wind and plenty of showers on the way.

    The current spell of weather has been lovely but the timing of the few interludes of bad weather has been frustrating. Trying to get a job done that needs 2 consecutive dry days and the only opportunity I have is the weekends. The previous 2 weekends were a write off for me with the weather, and today and tomorrow also showery and windy during the best part of the day so rules out this weekend as well. Sometimes it feels like the weather gods are out to spite me!

    Just 6 to 7c today. A bit of a shock but normal March weather of hail and showers. Rain has passed 70mm for March now after being 13mm this day last week

    The past 3 weeks have mainly been weekdays = lovely weather, weekends = wet, damp and cloudy.

    I haven't noticed that at all. It's been dry every day for most of the month in the west and east. I only golf at weekends and there was zero rain. I have been out walking, cycling, cutting timber and gardening every weekend too. Given that Dublin Airport had less than 8mm of rain for the first 25 days of March, where was all this wet and damp in the East? I think revisionism is at play in your head again.

    Dunsany has reported 9mm of rain after a wet couple of days this week. It got 95mm in March 2024.

    A lucky glimpse of the partial solar eclipse through the cloudy sky over Dublin this morning shortly after the peak.

    Yep, it was like a throw back of March from my childhood as I stood in wind and rain at football sidelines!

    Thankfully it's glorious today for Mothers Day💐

    Seen a butterfly today! It was resting on patio stones and then flew away so only got a small glance. I would guess it was one of the hibernating ones( think it was brown)and it's awake now after the winter.

    I've noticed this is a perennial of Irish weather over the past few years. Its galling when you work Mon - Fri and see the sun through the office windows, then along comes the weekend and its rotten.

    This weekend just gone was a miserable Saturday nice Sunday.

    The one before that was the very same.

    It just seems like more than randomness at this stage, there does seem to be a cyclical pattern there.

    What a gorgeous day to end March. I'm not sure we'll see too many like it.

    Cloudy end to March in Sligo and rain of 70.8mm in the end. Cleared there as it got dark. Will likely be sunnier tomorrow but a lot of hazy cloud will make sun milky. The next day will be sunnier. The slower it comes the better coz the quicker it comes the quicker it will end but currently no huge rainfall at all til mid April at least.

    So all in April could be the best month since June 2023 here although obviously not as warm. Also been very dry this year even in the wet Northwest where the wet days have been frequent but the volume low.

    January of course was quite wet but February 120mm and March 71mm had most of their rains in a couple of weeks.
