    Hottest March Day on record on this day in 1965, anyone know what the temperature was?

    http://www.rte.ie/archives/2015/0327/690122-hottest-day-in-march/

    23.6c at Trinity College I know of.

    March 2012's maximum of 22.6c was only 1.0c behind the record.

    2016 so far in Grange in the attachment below (Rainfall & Max. Temperatures). Very unremarkable generally but it has been the first since 1996 that the first 3 months have been all wetter than normal.

    Very very heavy hail showers today and quite cold. Although it was flagged in advance still a little disappointed with weather this weekend.

    Ireland dodged a bullet today as storm Katie missed us and hit England.

    It is/was a lovely day in Limerick City, I was out all day from 8 to 7 and there were only a couple of very light showers, dodged the heavier ones.

    My completely unscientific measurement of todays weather: Sunny enough to get my solar lights to light up for the first time this year

    Same here in Tralee, huge hail and sleet showers coming from massive towering clouds. Mountains all the way back to Brandon have a good white coating this morning.

    Woke up to 8.0 mm prep recorded on my station at 7am (since midnight), and total now above 10 mm. Much more that I would have expected for this 12 hour period going by the models yesterday (didn't see any TV forecast). The little bit of drying that the last couple of weeks brought to my back garden is now well and truly annihilated, with the soil now having turned back to the semi-liquid state it was all through last Winter.

    Met Éireann says for the 1st day of April:
    Very wet and windy from early on in the day, with heavy persistent falls of rain across Atlantic counties, leading to spot flooding.

    Well a new month but the same BS!!

    Bad news, it looks like conditions are very uncertain around the 10th now and that the high could stay well to the south of us in Spain etc. We have a high chance now of staying in changeable conditions with temperatures around 11-15c for most of the time - though there is still a chance for them to rise a bit more. It looks like rainfall amounts will be small around then with just showers and sunny spells largely.

    More reports of crashes in Co. Cork, both on the M8 and N25, due to heavy hail showers!

    Meanwhile....a nice dry and sunny day here in Dublin (so far).

    Some pretty beefy hail showers about again today.
    Had to laugh at the Rte weather summary last night, March the month of all weather's.

    I'm fairly sure I've been sunburnt on a fully overcast day with periodic rain showers before. I try to avoid bright lightbulbs.

    Yeah I did not notice that haha. March was a month of all weather.

    Snowfall on the 4th.
    Unseasonably strong winds on the 1st, 2nd, 26th and 27th.
    Storms on the 1st and 2nd.
    Dry spell from the 10th-23rd.
    Some very sunny days with the 14th and 17th in particular.
    Some warm days (12th and 17th).
    Some very cool days (3rd-6th in particular).
    Thunder - I recorded some on the 26th.

    Holy ****, that's too much for me. I just want a calm month of sunny and warm days - June 2014 perfect example.

    That's the saying alright.
    The sunburn bit wasn't a warning, it's what was reported over the weekend.
    Sheltered from the breeze there's a nice bit of heat in the sun now.
