    I must make a promise to myself to visit Donegal some time.

    Long trek up for us Rebels but so worth it. The beaches are incredible and you can nearly always have one all to yourself.

    Fairly miserable day again in Dublin. Cool and totally overcast and cloudy with temps struggling to get to 15º.

    Though I'm sure the sun will come out right on cue for sunset :rolleyes:

    Once again high pressure = fairly poor weather for the East. At least it's dry though.

    Things look better for tomorrow and Tuesday for Dublin, when ironically, lower pressure begins to take over.

    At this very moment it appears that there is cloud exclusively over Co Dublin. #lockdown blues

    RTE etc are just useless. Up until last night they had tomorrow being 21c and no clouds all day. Now it's a high of 17c and cloudy with some sun.

    I am a Dub but Donegal is hands down the most beautiful county in Ireland. Most amazing beaches, fantastic walks in the mountains, highest sea cliffs, also the likes of glenveagh national park. People really friendly too and so under populated

    It definitely hasn’t been a bad September so far. But a lot of the days have been very hit and miss with cloud refusing to move.

    Dublin has seen about two hours of sunshine each day since Thursday.

    The past three days it’s been about 15 degrees. It’s not amazing.

    In fact apart from last Sunday, nearly every day of this settled spell has had hours of cloud each day.

    Today must be one of the nicest late September days we have ever had in Cork. Cloudless and almost windless all day long. Kids are in the paddling pool which I thought I had put away for the year!

    Yes. Cork got some great weather today. Hopefully Dublin’s turn again tomorrow.

    Forecast is saying sun and 20 degree but we’ll see.

    Wind is due to turn SW tomorrow for Dublin which should be conducive to clearer and warmer weather.

    tomorrow should be a better day for the east and Dublin in general, fingers crossed we get some sunshine in what is possibly the last day of summer style temperatures till next May or June. Turning significantly colder from Tuesday/Wednesday everywhere. Thursday will be bitter for the time of the year with a daytime high of 9C forecasted for my area here in Meath.

    Clearing up in Dublin now finally. There have been many days like this during the good weather in September in Dublin. Cloudy all day and then it clears up in the evening.

    I've not been too bothered by the cloud with some days of the past week being very nice and welcomed. It's certainly far better than what "summer" delivered in Dublin for me. No spring 2020 or a patch on the spell this time last year in terms of sunshine but hey ho, it was good. I enjoyed getting out a lot last week to make the most of the beautiful sun when it was there.

    I'm firmly in winter mode now :cool:

    For those with clear skies there is a good bright pass over from the ISS at 8.40pm. Approaching from the south west.

    Fantastic weather in Achill Island today. It could easily have passed for one of those days we crave during the summer.

    Disagree, weather has been fantastic here in Dublin 5. Hardly seen a drop of rain the past few weeks and lots of sunny days. Numerous days in the 20s with a few days nearly reaching 25 degrees. I was playing golf today and the weather was lovely. September will go down as a very nice one in my opinion

    No. Dublin 5. It was cloudy all day. I honestly think you're a wind up of some sort.

    It was cloudy today but the past few weeks have been mostly sunny. You would probably complain the days it was 24 degrees. What do you expect in September, 25 degrees and sunny every day??? Glass half empty or what!! Summer was pants, we now get nice weather in September but still it’s not good enough for some

    Was out there myself a couple of days ago. The weather of the past few days certainly showed it at its stunning best. Below a pic of Keem Beach taken last Friday.

    Another disappointing day in Dublin.

    Nice + sunny this morning so had high hopes as we headed out for day but sun disappeared about 9.30am + never appeared again until usual time of about 6pm this evening.

    Now thankfully no real wind so didnt feel as cold as yesterday.

    This weekend was like a throwback to July/August when Met Eireann are useless at forecasting sunshine.

    Meant to be sunny all weekend but id say lucky if got about 2 hours between 2 days.

    If I knew we were getting no sunshine I'd roll with that but its the expectation that's a killer.

    Yes I know we had an absolutely fantastic week of weather in Dublin but hard when your working all week + then it disappears at weekend.
