    Body&Soul festival weekend is starting to edge into the wildly FI extents of the GFS, I'll be refreshing that precip chart every day until then!

    Is it likely to last Syran or what do you reckon?

    At the moment yes. Once this Azores High ridges through Ireland (The GFS says Thursday 15th, the ECMWF says Tuesday 13th/Wednesday 14th), there is no sign in the forecast period for at least a week and a half of an Atlantic regime returning right now. We could be going into quite an extended period of fine, settled weather if this Azores High truly does come into play here.

    Just watching low level cloud blowing along briskly on the wind and a bank of cumulonimbus just barely moving behind it.


  • Registered Users Posts: 10,135 ✭✭✭✭Oscar Bravo


    Dry and bright in castlebar with light winds, nice day in between weather systems

    I've been frequently mentioning Thursday 15th as the transitional day when the settled weather comes, still no change to that.

    The models are continuing to play around with the position of the high. The basis is that we are getting more settled weather but the temperatures are varied depending on the position of the high.

    Hopefully we won't be plagued by a cool onshore east or south-east wind.


  • Registered Users Posts: 7,024 ✭✭✭pauldry


    well be plagued by drizzle and cloud in the West and Northwest.

    Temps of 17 to 24c prob

    Getting quite blustery overnight as the frontal bands cross over the country, High ground in the S and SW taking most of the rainfall. Tomorrow looks like a good enough fresh day for the most part until showers arrive in the W in the afternoon.

    Mmmm, I don't like the looks of this.

    The GFS is now showing a trough to the north on Thursday 15th

    GFSOPEU06_144_1.png

    And look at this for Tuesday 20th from the GFS:

    GFSOPEU06_264_1.png

    Retrogression of high pressure up to Greenland along with a trough over Scandinavia? If this Winter with that setup, we'd be talking about Arctic blasts.

    The ECMWF is very similar with Thursday 15th:

    Looks like it could be changing now guys :cool::(.


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,044 ✭✭✭squarecircles


    Annnnd...its all starting to go down the ****ter...doubt the fine spell will be as fine as we thought it would be,or lasting as long.

    besides that either way someones going to suffer from a cooling sea breeze or low cloud impinging,coastal drizzle during the supposed fine spell.

    Very cool and dry, an unusual Summer combination.
