    I didn't think we'd get this much rain, the east was looking mostly dry, the rain certainly shifted further east than what was predicted at the beginning of the weekend.

    It sure did !
    We escaped in east Galway bar 15 mm or so overnight Saturday into Sunday
    Delighted as the forecast was grim!
    Bitter cold though

    What a difference tonight since earlier today here in Kerry. Rain petered out late afternoon and got to feeling mild as the winds eased getting up to 10.8C. Completely calm now and outside a short time ago and can hear the sea quite loud as it settles down after the gales today. Halo around the moon tonight from a thin layer of high cloud.

    Roll on the milder and warmer dry weather over the coming days . My trees could seriously do with a break from the cold wind to let the leaves come out without getting singed. Already a lot of leaves a bit crispy around the edges. Had enough of winter clothes and heating, very ready now for a warm spell and looks warm up until Saturday perhaps, Sunday it might start to unravel again but plenty of days to enjoy before then hopefully.

    Took a spin down to the local beach once the rain cleared this evening. The sea was very rough! Looking forward to some warmth over the next few days.

    Not much rain here compared to down south but a miserable day all the same, heating on early and fire lit, might as well be December. Caved in and booked a week in the Med earlier!

    Do we think there will be much in the way of sunshine the weekend or is it just warm air coming up from South? Remember the really mild weather in February was still very dull and breezey

    What an unbelievable evening in east Galway
    Like a summers evening
    Sitting outside reading and no midges !

    Such a contrast to last few evenings
    It’s a mad little country !

    What a great day in Kerry, getting up to 17.3C here near Tralee. Blue skies since this morning with some clouds drifting by. Some Lenticular clouds about this evening in the light SE breeze.

    Funny how there can be such differing experiences with weather on such a small island. Doubt it got out of single digits in Dublin.

    Friday looks like the warmest day, looking warm for Kerry, might be a bit cloudy though, hopefully just high cloud with a few breaks.

    Fairly miserable in Donegal as well, murky greyness with low visibility all day. Cleared up in the late evening so hopefully a precursor for the rest of the week

    Well it's an improvement here anyway on the last while in North Dublin.. at least that awful breeze has subsided. Sun trying to break through the high cloud

    More cloud in Dublin after a promising end to yesterday, it's last April all over again.

    A cold day in Sligo. 11c and cloudy.

    Might get 2 or 3 days good from this.

    It always works like this. The long range hints at 7 to 10 days the medium range 4 to 7 days then actual weather 2 to 3 days.

    Same with snow events though the long range usually 3 days with these that ends up being 3 hours

    Indeed, All will be forgiven if we see a repeat of last May this year though ;)

    Much better chance of that burning off this morning.

    Just checked sat and there is not so much nuisance cloud around. I'd say beautiful afternoon, evening in store.

    Some changes in the forecast heading in to next week? It's possible we could avoid the fronts with their associated rain bands which would prolong the good weather (still cooler than the weekend though).
