    Very fortunate indeed, got to open all the windows in the house for a good blow out and getting some work done outside although the lawn is saturated, making the most of it before the bigger winds come in this evening! ( c'mon Ireland ! )

    After hardly wearing wetgear all summer long, September has proved a tough month on the golf course. Very testing conditions today and a lot of puddles around. Wrecked after a slow round.

    I played yesterday and conditions were tough too. Three torrential showers and a stiff breeze made short work of my score.

    My tap-out-sideways game is excellent at present though!😏

    I found bunkers around 7 times today and they were very wet. They ruined me. Better off at the beach...

    Any dry period on the horizon for model watchers? This constant showery pattern would push you to the Ryanair website!

    Hiking cancelled last night for Ventry area yet this morning turned out beautiful. This is Cuas Crom near Cahirciveen around 2pm, a warm, breezy clear day, perfect for swimming. Since about 4pm the weather has changed and its quite stormy now. Blessed to get this day when the forecast had been so bleak!

    Have my weather station at a new temporary more exposed site , the anemometer is only at about 4m but still got a recent gust of 70km/h. Getting showers on and off and sounding loud against the windows.

    Yeah and no end in sight unfortunately, my cycle in this morning was primarily spent trying to avoid fallen branches, honestly it's more like November out there than the middle of September. Struggling to remember a worse September, although I'm sure our resident experts on here will tell me otherwise 😊

    This is as bad as a September I can ever remember. The wind is non-stop so far this month.

    you’d wonder what’s causing this endless succession of Atlantic deep lows giving us an early autumn? In winter cold air off the N America continent is the excuse but that can’t be the cause so early in the season.

    Surpringly not so windy night in West Mayo, felt like it was max gust 70ish kmh this morning while Mace Head not too far away was recording average windspeeds of 78 and gusts of 100+.

    Something I've noticed with many storms that the Galway Bay area often seems to channel the strongest winds through there while just 40k north we get a reduced wind load. Im guessing the high ground north and south of the bay has some steering effect on the low as it advances west or the upper winds.

    The atlantic hurricane season is at it's longest lull since 1950, little or no thunderstorms off the African coast and too much shear to aid development. If the weather is so settled in that area It may be a reason for it being so unsettled with us. Now, big changes are on the way from late next week enabling the storm season to really ramp up again. MT in his long range outlook said things could become even more volatile over Ireland if these predicted hurricane remnants come our way. But then again, because these systems are so erratic they sometimes push beautiful weather to our shores. Hopefully the latter happens, we might get that 'Indian summer ' after all. Eyes down on the model watching late next week because until then as Sryan would say it's utter Sh!te !

    just back from my 9 days in Spain, weather there was very nice, 28C most days, first 4 days were a bit on the cloudy side, last 4 days were very sunny and yesterday was foggy but still very warm. Now back in Meath to me today almost feels like December, hard to believe it's only mid September. Not sure there was much in the way of nice weather here since I left on the 6th September.

    Ugh just back from a walk in Killarney National Park, got feckin drenched. Even sheltering under trees was pointless. I can't remember when I got so wet out walking. I felt sorry for all the American and French tourists, they looked as miserable as me.

    Its partly shahara dust that's chocking them from forming last week national hurricane centre had one system at 90% of turning into something then 2 days later had a 0% chance , also I think it's the sea temperatures there not as warm off the coast of Africa but the gulf of Mexico has warm temperatures, we shall see anyway we just past peck hurricane season on the 10th so unless the next 5 weeks have systems forming

    Let's hope they push up the Azores high Dazler instead of adding to our misery.

    Seriously strong wind for me.last night in Clondalkin. Must be the angle of the gusts. Partially.pulled the roof off my garage. Ripped the canopy over my electric shutters and peeled back some of the plastic roofing.

    Alot of trees down around the area too

    But at least '23 had 10 days 20C or more (max 28.1) this month so far - None!
