    If your expecting a taste of summer in late Feb, then your right to give up :D. Couple of mild days couple up this week and it should feel pleasant in sunshine. From Sunday on looks interesting. Much more settled conditions, with more in the way of sunshine. Some lucky spots may even see 16 degrees in any prolonged sunshine. Actually, seeing as its a week away, i'm gonna go out on a limb and say 17 degrees somewhere in the southern half of the country next Monday.

    It was a nice day here on the hills of North Kilkenny, got to 11.4C, fairly cloudy but was dry.

    I think there are less posts as people can be out enjoying it rather than indoors posting and staying warm from the cold outside...

    Maybe it is that min, but to be honest no one really has an interest in the current weather as we have it the majority of the year, a bore fest really.

    Tomorrow upto 15C to 16C in east Munster/south Leinster.

    It is hardly boring.

    Spring is about to burst into life after the dark nights of the winter. Longer days, it is all great as one can watch the effects of weather on life and nature.
    Dry and mild would be a dream weather scenario.

    It is boring when the only noticeable difference is that you get too warm while wearing a raincoat!

    A low of 10.8C here overnight but its not much good when its still dark, grey and misty

    Already 13.5C here in Cork despite cloud and drizzle. A little sunshine would make it very Spring like.

    14.3C in Cork now. Cloudy but no rain. If the sun came out I'd say 16 or 17C would be reached easily enough.

    24hr rainfall accumulation up to 5.45pm this evening (from Netweather and I think based on frequency of radar returns only)

    Drizzle totals really stacking up in parts of the west & north especially.

    This fecking drizzle gets you soaked in seconds but doesn't show on the radar. It's also incredibly localised. I left the house & it was misty but dry. A 5 min walk later & as I got close to the sea the drizzle was hammering down.

    I am now trying to guess which day will be drier in Galway - Thursday or Friday.

    Could do with a good heay down pour of rain for a day clear all the dirt and grime off the roads, the drizzle at the moment seems to make the roads horable :mad:

    Well the horrible stuff is back today & because it deposits little actual rain, the forecasts tend to ignore it. Yesterday was wet here all day :mad:

    But they did forecast it discodog. This is what they had on their website this morning. Why say they didn't when it's the main feature of their forecast?
    Today
    Overall rather cloudy and misty today with patchy rain, drizzle and fog but some bright or sunny spells will occur.
    A very mild day with highest temperatures 12 to 16 degrees. Fresh locally strong southwesterly winds will ease gradually.

    Tonight
    Cloudy and misty this evening and tonight with rain turning persistent in places. Further fog patches also with poor visibility.. Generally mild with temperatures not falling below 8 to 10 degrees in fresh southwest winds. Clearer, cooler weather will develop in northern areas towards dawn.

    I'd say if any station reaches 17c this week it would be Mothman's in Ashford. Perfect location for the adiabatic warming effect under these warm sector conditions.
    And a good call with 17.4C being the max. Shame the cloud came so soon. The max was just after midday The temp would have threatened the 18.1C...but life is full of ifs :)

    lostinashford recorded 17.1C - and to think I doubted him! :o

    (it was a miserable 15.1 here in Sandyford despite the sun)
