Forecast should read

Temperatures 18 to 22c but only 10 to 13c in the West.

Its bloody cold today.
Going to start a record of Summer 2021 today for Sligo and see how to rate it at the end.

So far day 1 cuck.

The very nature of weather apps, in a showery set up it is impossible to give an exact rain estimate for an exact location. Generalisations don't work!

Haven't seen a bit of it today due to work but the weather station topped out at 19.7c this lunchtime. So close!

Gonzo

Another beautiful day in Meath, warmer and sunnier than yesterday. Temperature about 20C but feels more like 23C. Had lunch outside earlier and will probably have dinner in the garden again this evening.

Lovely out there in south Laois!

Still nudging a warm 19c in Arklow,I wonder what the morning will bring ⚡

snowgal

Yes it’s been absolutely beautiful in Meath today! Still really warm and sunny at the back garden enjoy every minute that I can:)

Lovely evening in Dublin 16. Clear blue sky/no wind. Feeling humid. 19.6c atm. High of 22.1c today.

Meteorite58

Damp overcast morning here in Tralee, eased off around midday giving 5.2mm, stayed overcast with a humid feel . Only got up to 13.2C and down to 10.8C, feeling cool and damp now, putting on the heating!

Smashing day in East Cork again, skies cleared around lunchtime and it has been glorious since.

Donegal Storm

Cool, dark and windy in Letterkenny as well with some rain this morning. Felt like March again

appledrop

Beautiful evening here in NCD.

Jaysys the heating! Wow it must be freezing there.

We are sweating here had to leave window open in my son's room as it was like a sauna when he was going to bed.

compsys

Lovely day in Dun Laoghaire, especially the evening.

Went for a swim in Sandycove - water still pretty chilly but felt lovely relaxing and drying off on the sand after.

Feel sorry for those further West. Looks like East is best over the next few days. Hopefully things will improve for everyone next week.

However I do remember temps of up to 20º late March and early April further West while the East stayed around 12º - so it all evens out usually.

mcburns07

Still a balmy 16 degrees here in East Cork, flat calm.

feckwunker

The room is like a blast furnace here in Waterford. So warm.

sporina

Woo hoo..well, after that basket case of a month May, I didn't think we would get any real summer heat at all.. but low and behold, June 1st - 1st day of Summer meteorologically, and today was proper balmy! Ist of the year for me - proper T Shirt weather! Well, April 26th was proper warm but not not sure if it beat today..

Forecast is bad I know but there is still hope - today showed me that.
Don't go bursting my bubble now folks! (wink emoji)

Had my heating on as well. North kerry

The GFS pub run is rolling out, bit of a heat wobble going on with mid to possibly high 20s after next week.

“The cork weather bot” got up to 19.2 yesterday & only went down to 12.6 during last night. It’s based near watergrasshill if I remember correctly

Mantis Toboggan

Didn't sleep a wink last night with the bedroom at 26 degrees and a dawn chorus at 4am.

26 degrees? Have earplugs for noise but woke up at 4:30 with it brightening, need to get blackout curtains.

appledrop

Another stunning morning here in NCD, already 18 degrees. Unbelievable, especially as rain forecast fir today.

I'll be running out of work summer clothes at this rate!

I'm fed up of it now. The few days last week were so good and now this again is properly depressing.

Gonzo

not as sunny as the previous 4 or 5 days but still pleasantly warm 18C and spells of hazy sunshine. Last night was very mild as well and was fairly difficult to sleep at times.

Fine start here in Arklow but clouded over
Warm 18c
Just started raining
Big drops but light

Gonzo

nice sunny spells here now but darker clouds to my south approaching, this is probably the end of the warm and hazy conditions, could have some showers in the afternoon with fresher air following behind it.

sporina

Grey, wet but mild here in Cork City.. oh man.. such a contrast to yday... how is one suppose to know what season's clothing to have in the wardrobe/storage??? ggggrrrr :mad:

Mantis Toboggan

Rain just starting here in Kildare

jackrussel

Suns out again in cork city! At least it stop raining

KanyeSouthEast

Wet and grey morning here looks to be brightening now. Yesterday afternoon was the nicest of the last few days it was actually warm no breeze and sunny.

Gonzo

The heavy showers that were building to the south are breaking up rapidly as they move northwards. Still dry here in Meath. Looking at the radar we could easily stay dry for the rest of today.

CeeCeeBloom

Some lovely cloud formations here in Dublin 24!
