Doesn't look too bad here in Dublin today, although certainly a lot cooler than of late. Am I been overly optimistic in hoping we might get the usual one good spell before the short days and seemingly endless wind and rain kick in? Doesn't look like it according to our meteorological experts on here?

OldRio · 02-09-2025 10:06AM

The mist has lifted and we have blue skys and Sunshine. Lovely mid morning. Leitrim

Unfortunately based on current GFS and ECM modeling the outlook looks unsettled right out to the depths of FI +384 hours which takes us to mid September. For a while it looked like things may settle down when I go to Spain on Saturday but now that looks removed. Of course things can change and charts could flip to a more settled outlook but confidence in that happening is extremely low.

Today looks like a pet day and same with Thursday, going to finally cut the grass today as it hasn't been cut in well over a week with the grass being wet the entire time, it does seem dry today so I'll use the window to cut the grass.

Lovely day here in Dublin.

Getting all the smelly mucky EP gear washed and dried hopefully today 😐

Dazler97 · 02-09-2025 03:47PM

August was a warm month according to met eirrean and I'd be in agreement 🤝 ✌️

sryanbruen · 02-09-2025 04:10PM

The zonality has reduced sea temperatures in the North Atlantic to now significantly below average to our west but still remain above average in other directions.

I wouldn’t be surprised if this added contrast will favour more cyclogenesis.

Mod Note: Posts removed from the current weather thread re Joanna Donnelly. After consultation the 'Farewell to Joanna Donnelly' thread was removed as it had descended into purely personal attacks and comments about the said person. This is not what this forum is about. Likewise the Cathal Nolan thread was removed as it also was becoming nothing but a gossip laden personal attack on the person. It was always expected of posters in this forum to stick to the general topic of the weather and follow the forum charter : 3. If you wish you to challenge someone's views (on the topic of weather) then please question the post, do not just attack poster. This goes for any other person be they on boards or not.

Please remember the forum charter especially :

Lets keep to the topic of the weather.

Thank You.

the bad forecast won’t keep me up tonight. Gonzo putting his name down for the presidency will.

DellyBelly · 02-09-2025 07:09PM

Had a lovely round of golf today. Course in great nick and the leaves on the trees were all different colours. Looked great. Always say golf in autumn in Ireland is fantastic.

On the plus side any lows forming in the warm sectors will likely lose energy over the cold, depending on atmospheric conditions. So best case scenario the cold pool will help us avoid the worst of any 'weather bombs'. I really hate that term.

Dazler97 · 02-09-2025 09:48PM

I'm just so kinda surprised that it went from warm to cool so quick, I'm already getting autumnal vibes which I usually wouldn't till 1st or 2nd week of October maybe because we've had it so good the last 3 months especially compared to the last few years , unless we get plesent days from mid September because the sun is quickly losing strength in it , that's just my 2 cents anyway

Larbre34 · 02-09-2025 10:06PM

Traditional my left one.

There is only correct and wrong.

Today is the first day of Autumn.

beggars_bush · 02-09-2025 10:22PM

Was a lovely day, especially around 11-2pm

pauldry · 02-09-2025 11:21PM

Fairly dreadful last 7 days

13.2mm after 2 days of September.

Think wel easily pass 100mm in Sligo this month after falling just shy of it in August. Will we get 200mm though?

Hippodrome Song Owl · 03-09-2025 05:54AM

I was woken by intense heavy rain at 2.30am and it's still lashing now. Pure misery commute and the first dark morning where I had to have lights on getting ready.

mykrodot · 03-09-2025 07:29AM

What happened the weather yesterday? I had done my homework and Tuesday was to be the driest day of the week in the SW. So myself and a few friends headed off to do an 18km stage of the Kerry Camino on the Dingle peninsula (I only live 30 mins from the start).

We got one hour of dry but very cloudy weather, then the rain started, heavy, relentless drizzle for the next 3 hours. We got absolutely drenched. I had a waterproof jacket but not my better Goretex one as the forecast has said only 0.05mm rain for the entire day!!! Ugh. The previous day had been forecast as heavy showers yet I was walking for 2 hours on Inch Beach in the sunshine.

Very hard to plan anything when ALL weather apps are wrong (I used Met Eireann, Windy and my phone's weather APP before planning the walk!) I know, I know, its the Dingle peninsula and you can expect anything but still………..it was 100% wrong on all forecasts yesterday for Kerry.

(excuse the rant, it was still a lovely day with good company)

OldRio · 03-09-2025 07:38AM

Some rain last night. Dreadful. Drizzle this morning. 13C. Dark and miserable.

Today doesn't seem too bad in Dublin. Yesterday's forecast was for heavy rain all the way until 3pm.

Depends on your definition of 'not too bad' 😊, yes my cycle in was not as bad as I had feared, since Met Eireann had predicted a pretty dismal morning of widespread showers, but it amazingly stopped raining just as I left the house covered from head to toe in wet gear which I didn't need in the end. However I do agree that it has been a pretty dramatic change from what was a pretty decent August, normally it's mid to late October before you really start noticing the change in the weather.

Gonzo · 03-09-2025 10:39AM

Today nowhere nearly as bad as what I was expecting, the rain cleared before I rose up out of bed, however there are showers on the way.

Kutebride · 03-09-2025 12:32PM

Absolutely horrible day out there. Its hammering rain as I type.

Absolutely belting down now in Dublin 2, although this is probably what I was expecting earlier.

God it's just awful horrible day
