    Months come around really fast these days folks, sorry for the delayed stickage!

    Looking forward to some ex-hurricanes scooting west, although i feel a late summer is likely during September.

    Currently Overcast and drizzly.

    Does anyone know why there is every now and again a ring of blue around Dublin. I know there can be wi-fi interference but what's causing the ring?

    Many tnks for reply but it does not affect the whole radar beam and is circular. Rules out anaprop, does it not?

    Not roost rings.

    Not nuclear blast.

    That leaves one thing that I can think of and I ain't posting it here!

    Tnks though.
