    Could the dominant high pressure system that seems set to cover most of southern Europe, move over Ireland about 4th / 5th Aug?

    If so, it would bring welcome relief!

    Clutching at straws, 9 days out, who knows what might happen? July has been a wash-out.

    Same problem as for the last few years with the jet stream....Ireland seems to in a bad spot geographically to be hit with this "conveyor belt" of bad weather for 3 years in a row.

    Heading to London for the Newmarket races, Brother in law over there said the weather man mentioned they were expecting good weather from Friday onwards...
    I presume this is the high thats caused Spain to cook....
    Could even come over this way and dry us out a bit...???

    My fingers are crossed anyway...

    It looks like we might be in for some more windy weather during the first week of August.
