Mild/Warm Settled Weather likely from March 10th onwards

ninebeanrows

The charts being churned out would bring severe heatwave conditions in summer months but as we move towards the middle of March they will still bring with them some glorious weather with some sunshine and mild to warm temperatures. Temperatures to 18c definitely possible in sunshine.

The unprecedentedly mild winter weather looks like it will be replaced by an impressive Spring southerly plume after a brief cold shot midweek.

Get the barby and beers iced

Some of the ECM Output below.

Saturday 10th



Monday 12th



Lasting all the way to Thursday 15th and afterwards ?

I cried reading that

Hopefully there won't be to much low fog and drizzly muck around here this time

Lucreto

As these charts like to change

I still expect mild misty rain out of this as it get closer.

Lets enjoy it now as it will probably be pissing rain for most of the summer..

* goes gets hibernation stuff together*...

....also with sea surface temps at their lowest, possible risk of sea fog drifting onto coasts?

Looking at the primary indicators I think calling an end to Winter weather is very premature. Although I agree with weathercheck that a milder period of weather (not "warm" tbh) is coming I can't help but say Winter weather is not over yet;)

average_runner

Come on darkman, winter never arrived in fairness, not much real frost even this year. Roll on to a good summer hopefully.

Weathercheck's link isn't static. It's already starting to veer away from a warm period. Still on the cards but I dont think it will anywhere near as warm as Weathercheck had previously stated.

mike65

It could also veer back and become even warmer BELIEVE

Gonzo

lets hope we manage to see charts like these deliver during June, July & August when it's really needed.

I remember a St Patricks day a few years ago when we had 18C, sunny and warm, we actually wore tshirts and sunglasses to the parade! :eek::D
Would be nice to have that again instead of the normal, rain hail and wind!

cherryghost

Yet another fallback on the latest ECM. Looks calm alright but 18 is looking more unrealistic. 14/15 max looks more sensible at the moment.

St. Patrick's Day on the other hand looks quite handy but its just too far out to tell.

It never started to begin with.

I rember when i was about 8 or 9 years old we were at our local st paddys day parade and wearing shorts and eating ice cream,4 days later we were making snowmen:),it was about 24 years ago...

davidsr20

Whippy not! Bring on next winter I hate sun and warmth ;(

ninebeanrows

I will stick with going for temp to hit 17 or 18c somewhere in a bit of sunshine

Sponge Bob

You are playing it really safe there Weathercheck

Looks like it will start off mild, cloudy & of course drizzly!!!

Useless fact of the day: the last time the MSLP value at Malin Head went below the 1000 hPa mark was on the 26th of January last. The 50 day average (up to today) at this station is standing at 1021.2 hPa - around 10 to 12 hPa above normal; and if tonight's ECM was to verify, it is possible that the air pressure value will not fall below 1020 hPa at Malin Head (or anywhere else for that matter) over the next 5 to 7 days at least. The Azores high influence really digging its heals in this year so far.

Don't worry it'll piss off later this month and not be seen again until September. :mad:

Since the start of the year we have been under the influence of a Euro/Azores hybrid HP system. It basically killed this winter stone dead - I just hope it will hang around long enough to delveier a decent summer.

But doesnt the Azores high just drag in mild, damp cloudy weather?

Looks cloudy for Saturday with drizzle in places but at the moment looks like clearer skies for Sunday-Tuesday for most with temperatures advancing towards 17c or perhaps higher

Harps

Looking better this evening than the past couple of days with the high sat right over us, not getting my hopes up too much but hopefully it might keep the Atlantic systems at bay for a few days

marcus2000

just out of interest, and I dont mean to insult anyone, but are there websites/met stations that are 'more accurate' than others.

I know when i check a few like met.ie/metcheck/weather/bbc/yahoo....they can vary substantially. Id assume met eireann would be most accurate for ireland as they are most interested in ireland, but.........???

Which is the best to use :D

And wouldn't you know Cheltenham is on next week. They often manage to get cracking weather. Bring it on.
