[mountain shadow]

Another awful day up here in the North East, the dry halcyon days of April and May seem a lifetime ago.

[mountain shadow]

Another dire day, temperatures struggling to get to the mid teens.

No sign of anything Summery in the next two weeks.

What i am interested in is .... Are we going to have a good summer, I have really criticial on our weather services these days, and to be fair n to the point, I am tired of this wet weather @ this point.   Does anyone Know that the south-east of Ireland is going to have an swesome July or August respectfully.   Thanks!

Unfortunately there is no sign of any settled weather at the moment.

The sunny South East will fair better than most though.

Anything possibly exciting here?

[mountain shadow]

Does the rain ever stop in this country?

[ForeverPomeroysnow]

Thats was a very nice day weather wise, pity these have been few and far between this summer

[Eastantrim4]

Yea, this summer on the whole has been pretty crap alright!

I'd quite fancy a decent winter for a change, things looked promising last year but it all went to pot! The only issue this year, if we do get a good one, it could be during a lockdown period which I'm not so sure about... Funny old time we're living in.

RED warning for Cork tonight 

#StormEllen bringing wild conditions tonight and early Thursday. Red warning from @MetEireann for Cork.  Heavy rain, coastal concerns with high spring tides and large waves/swell.

[Jo Farrow]

Storm Francis  ORANGE Warning for RAIN - Intense rainfall associated with Storm Francis is expected at times Monday night and Tuesday, leading to accumulations of 40 to 60mm (higher values in mountainous areas). The most intense rainfall is expected to ease off in southern counties during Tuesday morning. Some flash flooding likely. 
This rainfall will further elevate river levels and may result in river flooding also.

Also YELLOW for WIND - Very windy or stormy conditions are expected on Tuesday as Storm Francis crosses Ireland. Southwest winds veering westerly, reaching mean speeds of 55 to 65km/h, will bring widespread severe gusts of 90 to 110km/h (and possibly higher in exposed areas). Some disruption is likely and possibly structural damage. Met Eireann warnings

[Rocheydub]

More yellow rain warnings for today too. What a sodding month August has turned out to be. Still, could be trying to post in the Louisiana thread!!!

[BIG LAD]

Hi guys, hope all keeping safe and well. That time of year again when thoughts turn to snow and frost! Some decent cold nights already including a September record low so plenty to look forward to.

I have the tab open all year I just don’t look at it as much half the year

Been a while since I've had such a miserable day as this. Lashing sideways rain.

 

Yuck

Yep, and I had to get out and about today for various things. Horrible. Still the ECM weeklies show November may be an average month for rain, and given the crazy wet Novembers we sometimes get, then I'll take that for starters

Don't have as much spare time as I used to have (damned pandemic!) so don't really have the time to view either the NWP or the model output thread with any time required. Is there any joy looking forward??

Well it was all looking good for an easterly at day 12 for about 2 days and then the high has gone to far north east so we end up on  the wrong side of it.....so In conclusion, just the usual haha , I have found enjoyment in the mountain snow reports thread though

Hello everyone you's all ready for the winter chase & to be lead up the garden path.

[cue_killar]

I am ready to be disappointed again  

[BIG LAD]

Temp dropped 5c in last hour or two. From 11.5c to 6.4c. should be the last mild weather for a while.

Indeed BIG LAD, the Model Thread is getting very excitable atm, hopefully it will come to pass this year, would be nice to have some seasonal weather coming up to Christmas
