Dull again in wexford. Sun never lasts long down here

Oneiric 3 · 17-09-2020 12:01pm

The grey glory continues. Skied cleared after dark last night and it was nice to see the stars for a change, but the grey moved back just in time for sunrise. Thankfully though it does not feel as heavy or as humid as recent days, which is likely down to the slight but nice feeling on the skin breeze.

DOCARCH · 17-09-2020 12:23pm

Clear and sunny in Dublin. 20.4c atm in Dublin 16.

pauldry · 17-09-2020 12:24pm

Up until now today could be considered Dark... play would have been stopped for bad light if it were cricket

Now its bright ...still cloudy though

obi604 · 17-09-2020 12:52pm

overcast yet again in east galway. clouds all over the shop, not a hint of blue, and I thought the west was supposed to get the best of things in last couple of days

Slashermcguirk · 17-09-2020 12:53pm

Another absolute cracker of a day. Beautiful blue skies

Hooter23 · 17-09-2020 1:11pm

sun starting to appear now in Meath, a fairly pleasant afternoon.

Thankfully it appeared around 2pm. It was quite cold and windy this morning but glorious now!

pauldry · 17-09-2020 4:01pm

Met Eireann have finally acknowledged its stayed cloudy in the West in 240pm forecast adjustment, but it also has in a number of counties right across to Louth.

We have had 2 hours of sun the last 4 days

Today it was DARK until 1220pm

Slashermcguirk · 17-09-2020 5:12pm

While closer to 20 degrees today in Dublin 5 and not as warm as earlier in the week (up near 25), today has been stunning to be out in. Hardly a breeze and sun splitting the sky. Love this type of weather

Harry Palmr · 17-09-2020 5:16pm

Boiling hot for September since the cloud lifted and broke in Waterford. Thought we were supposed to be in a northern flow by now.

4Ad · 17-09-2020 5:17pm

22 degrees in East Clare, sun broke through after lunch.It's glorious..

Gonzo · 17-09-2020 5:20pm

today is actually better than yesterday here in Meath, a lovely sunny afternoon and the breeze doesn't feel as cool as yesterday. Temperature 19C.

giveitholly · 17-09-2020 6:16pm

Absolutely stunning day in tipp once the fog cleared,not a cloud to be seen and temps above 20c,pure bliss

obi604 · 17-09-2020 6:42pm

Cloud cleared in east galway at the wrong time. Probably about 5pm and all the warmth was Essentially gone at that stage.

daniel_t1409 · 17-09-2020 6:43pm

Eventually cleared up by afternoon to a very warm sunny day, rare in wexford

Slashermcguirk · 17-09-2020 6:54pm

Best run of weather in Dublin since late May / early June

Meteorite58 · 17-09-2020 11:18pm

Cloud slow to lift but eventually had totally clear skies by mid afternoon. What a day getting up to 21.5C here near Tralee, calm and lovely sunshine and that bit more unusual with the sun lower in the sky. So warm and humid ,to cool down , I had to change into shorts and sandals when I came home from work .

More please!

Surprised at Oak Park and Gurteen on that table. AWS here reported a max of 21.8c in South Laois. Will report the manual figure after 10am.

Graces7 · 18-09-2020 4:30am

Total silence and peace out here. And the forecast the next couple of days promises sun and no rain. A space to settle the garden for the year... Unless the sun seduces to basking...;)

Total silence in East Clare, apart from me eating porridge !!

Kutebride · 18-09-2020 7:41am

Gorgeous morning. Meath.

OldRio · 18-09-2020 8:57am

At long last the sun is shining. The first time since Monday morning.

Graces7 · 18-09-2020 9:54am

The battle is on between sun and autumn mist. The mist looking like clouds is lying on the wide calm ocean...then clear sky until the cloud layer. A lovely sight.

And not getting much lighter

A true typical autumn morning at last. Mild and misty season.

Oneiric 3 · 18-09-2020 10:07am

Skies cleared just in time for sundown yesterday and was greeted by beautiful blood red sunrise this morning with not a cloud in the purple sky. Now, true to form, has totally greyed out over the last hour with thick low cloud. In a pattern that would, and should, normally bring unbroken sunshine to the west, this is the crap we get yet again. It is almost like it is being deliberately done. I litereally cannot remember the last sunny morning we have seen here. Possibly one day back last August and another one sometime in July. The 15th I think but my memory is not the best.

pauldry · 18-09-2020 10:36am

Red sky in the morning....but its sunny

SleetAndSnow · 18-09-2020 10:45am

Lovely sunny morning in cork city today! Great to see it. Around 16 degrees

Thelonious Monk · 18-09-2020 11:57am

Bright and a cold breeze in Dublin, still decent weather for mid Sept

obi604 · 18-09-2020 12:12pm

see this link here: https://slipcam.dmyc.ie/

an at bottom of the nice picture its has - "Kish Lighthouse: Air Temp 11.7 "

is this the actual temperature or is air temp a different thing ? (silly q) seems very cold. now it may well be this temp as Kish lighthouse is miles out in the bay and probably way colder out there etc

Gonzo · 18-09-2020 12:45pm

beautiful morning here in Meath, warm sunshine but quite breezy.

Same in wexford. Also not as warm as yesterday, but still nice not to have rain almost every day like in the summer.

highdef · 18-09-2020 12:50pm

Hazy in north Kildare and bloody chilly with that very keen breeze. Yesterday felt so much nicer.

yeah September is a massive improvement over the awful dull and wet summer. This current spell is probably every bit as warm if not warmer than what we had in May as well. Later next week will be big changes to Autumn proper but we are heading towards October now and the current warmth is not going to last much longer anyway as the warmth in the northern hemisphere is leaking away to the south day by day.

Donegal Storm · 18-09-2020 1:13pm

Finally a couple of warm cloudless days in Donegal, today is as nice a day as we've had all year.

Will be soaking up all the rays I can as suspect there won't be many more days like this until next May at the earliest

pauldry · 18-09-2020 1:24pm

Ah no. Climate change. There will be a few more. Just a few storms and flooding episodes in between.

Graces7 · 18-09-2020 1:35pm

Glorious day with full sun.. totally wondrous.

I have been outside for a couple of hours; picking berries and gazing at the ocean as the tide came in,, then just sitting enjoying the warmth and light. A gentle heat.

The weather scene has changed to autumn. Even at noon in the deepest shelter, the hoar/grass-frost was still apparent. The warmth is the sun not the air, if you see what I mean. It will get cool swiftly when darkness falls. Out here at least.

In my fifth year out here and well acquainted with the weather patterns.

Oscar Bravo · 18-09-2020 3:27pm

Warm dry and sunny in Castlebar. 21 degrees.

Danno · 18-09-2020 3:33pm

Clear sky and mild with temperatures between 18c and 19c in south Laois. The ENE breeze today is light to moderate but holding back the temperatures.

4Ad · 18-09-2020 3:38pm

A lovely 20 degrees in East Clare, bit of a breeze taking the heat away, not complaining though..
