Started to get dark very suddenly and really cold too. Reckon snow is on the way

Ever hear of phenomenon called night?

Seriously though cop on, third time this week you've said it, and even at trying to annoy people that's a fairly poor attempt.

Is this some kind of in joke I'm missing ?

That's what you call blatant trolling...




I can't remember the last time I seen anything that wasn't gray....

Back to discussing the weather please guys & again, don't feed & don't indulge in backseat moderation - just report posts that need our attention.

Thanks

Clear blue skies here in castlebar with little or no wind. That will do nicely

Yes indeedy, it's a fabulous winters day in Galway too. Blue skies, calm and feeling much more seasonal at 5.7C
A pleasant change from the recent mild, drizzly greyness!

Lovely morning here in South Tipp too nice and bright. Last few days have been very dull but at least it was mild. One of these bright evenings should highlight a bit of a small stretch in the evenings hopefully.

There was a slight grass frost this morning here in West Clare.

Looks to become more prominent.

We'd nearly need stage lights or a night vision camera to take something similar here today

A similar day to every day since Sunday here, dull BUT not horrible. I am loving these dull dry days, this is my favourite kind of weather that's perfect for anything except things like beach obviously (RIP Snow, you thought that was my favourite type :rolleyes:, no that's second).

What's attractive about dull weather?

There is nothing "attractive" with it. It's just so perfect for me. I dislike dull weather when it is cold but I love it when it's mild but not "muggy". Dull weather apart from when it's cold just never bothers me. I don't know how to explain how I love it in detail to be completely honest with you.

very dull here all day, but at least it's dry!

If it can't snow, the next best thing is, cold and dry weather
I am loving the crisp weather and clear blue skies we are having at the minute.

Cold, dry AND SUNNY. I absolutely hate cold, dry and dull weather.

Stunning day and evening, cool crisp evening here near Tralee and as can be seen in the picture calm as well.

We cant complain really. Most of the time the situation is the reverse of that with the bulk of the country under a blanket of cloud with a thin clear strip along the east coast.

Spent a couple of summer holidayd in those apartments on the right in Meteorites pic when the brats were small. They loved it there and could walk to the aquadome where they nearly robbed me every year.

Winter is cancelled. But I think many of us suspected this to be the case a while back (like November)
