No weather?

I know there's no such thing really as no weather?

Got it in one, there's always something happening, the issue that makes it worthy of attention or not is the affect it has on day to day living for the people it's influencing. At this time of the year, there's a good few people here who are desperate to see some cold, ideally snowy weather, and unfortunately, Ireland has not had a history of significant snow in the winter since we've been here, and that's 20 plus years.

Life at this time of the year would be a lot easier for a lot of people if it snowed a bit more often, we don't get the rain or sun enthusiasts on in the summer in the same way, for some reason, the cold potential really cranks some people's cogs. and if it's forecast and then doesn't happen, there are some that get really twisted out of shape, as if it's the forecaster's fault that it's not snowing NOW!

Every day is slightly different, 99% of the time the weather doesn't have a significant negative effect on day to day life, so it's not given a lot of attention. Heavy rain, or strong winds, or snow will get attention, because it has an impact on daily life in some way or another, or in several ways.

So, a hot day, or a cold day, or a wet day, or a combination of several of these could all be seen as zero days, but as soon as an extreme of one or other of the variables happens, it's no longer a zero day, but as you can probably guess from what I've said, there isn't really any such thing as a zero day.

Hope that helps
