Was thinking of cutting the silage next week. On the east coast here, anyone any idea what the weather will be like? I looked up met Éireann and don't see any heavy showers forecast.

Unless it's forecast for tomorrow, I wouldn't be getting too carried away just yet the way the forecasting has been going

I don't look at it every day but it's been fairly accurate imv.
Just train yourself to look at the trends and not the specifics.

This breakdown was well on the cards for a while now.

Hopefully.

It was something like this time last year we had thunderstorms up from the south one early morning all the way up to the north of Ireland. Some had hay or silage on the ground.

Actually it might be good warning for everyone to have their fencer protected and genny with fuel or working order.

One caveat, while it's not crucial, theres a lot of aircraft information not available to models lately,so there may be some changes

My reading of it is that it is thundery weather,that means to me that it will hit land at Tramore and travel up east of the Barrow and Slaney(suit Ped,Mort,Timm) and all I will get is the power cut.Any thing that comes from the SW will die out around Clonmel,Carrick(DavyK happy)and this little parched pocket will get SFA.

I was one of them with 6 acres of hay on the ground when it came as far north as Tyrone. Ended up as round bales of Haylage.

Mooooo

Had enough to wet the ground. Obviously me having grass down caused it to rain.
