beautiful picture, very mystical. I used to live near Slane and was a regular visitor to the Hill of Tara before it got so busy. It was magical, so many similar views in the early morning and late evening, lovely memories.

Spinalonga!! I read a fantastic book about the old leper colony there, it was facsinating. I always thought it would be a place I'd love to visit. Is it hard to get there from mainland Greece?

Enjoy.

Bright and warm earlier before 7am on my walk. Eh, the brightness all gone now.

Another grey depressing morning in Dublin. Not as cold as previously, but hard to imagine that we will see the sun at all today.

same here gilly. I wish it didn’t sound like I was taking the you know what a lot of the time but the weather here is dire. It rained most of yesterday I’m told. Place is sodden this morning and the grey slate is almost down to the ground. Hopeful it’ll pick up during the day.

It's actually so dispiriting, somone recently said and it's so true, that people and society in general look and feel so much happier when the sun is out, and it's actually warm. If this keeps up we'll be a very depressed nation by the time this so called summer is over.

It was actually sunny this morning in Dublin and looked like it was going to be a pleasant day, but around 9 am the clouds came. So disappointing!

Ireland would be the most beautiful place in the world if we had the weather

el Nino’s killing me

another cloudy gloomy day, this summer has to be up there with one of the most cloudy first half to summers ever. I think we've only had 2 sunny days here in Meath since June 1st and about 3 days where the temperature has gotten above 20C.

Yesterday was the midway point to summer so we are now into the second half of summer with Autumn in our sights.

OMG you're so Irish 😂

What do people find most accurate forecast App/ site for North East Coast USA (NY,CT and MA) weather please?

Heading for 2 weeks...even only few days out getting big variations in forecast. Weather channel and accuweather seem popular and recommended. I use YR for Europe but think based on ECM.

TIA

Overcast but dry and the biting wind has back off over the last few days - 16.5 degrees

Slim pickings but we have to take what we get in West Clare

I saw that, I went for a late lunch, and was quite happy to see the strange big yellow thing that we don't see very often appear from behind a mass of clouds.

Gonzo

I almost couldn't believe what I was seeing when the sun finally popped out around 4pm.

it’s gone back in again

Gorgeous day in Arklow today

High of 22.1c

Still 19.6c as I type

Banarol

It was a warm sunny day in Mid Tipp with a high of 21.3C. It’s clouded over now but still pleasant

KanyeSouthEast

not a bad evening here. If you’d get every evening like this you’d take it at this stage. Cloudy but not grey slate, not cold and relatively still. The sun was in and out this afternoon. It would be unremarkable normally but this June and July it’s unusual!!

Very pleasant day in Galway. Good sunny spells during the day. Grass growth is slow due to the lack of rain. I don't think we've seen any decent rain since start of July. Mace Head still showing 6mm. It's coming tomorrow alright. My new trees badly need it.

adocholiday

ECM and ICON showing a wet spell coming up over the next few days with the majority of this falling on Saturday. It would be a miserable weekend for many if this pans out, lets hope it downgrades as we move through the week.

Saturday looks absolutely awful at the moment.

It will downgrade. That's been the trend for a few weeks now.

Yesterday and today were forecast wet at the weekend just gone, but they turned out dry, sunny and two of the best days of the summer!

Calm, cool and clear apart from a mix of noctilucent and high level cloud right across to the north at Trim, Co. Meath.😍

Apologies that the phone does not even barely pick up the beauty of it.

KanyeSouthEast

one of the nicest starts if not the nicest start to a day weather wise this summer for me. Lovely blue skies and sunshine no breeze.

wazzzledazzle

Lovely bright start, should be like this for an hour before the clouds no doubt roll on in for the day with maybe a brief appearance of the Sun for about half an hour late this afternoon.

Southeast England looking at 30c at the weekend. We'll be lucky to achieve half that looking at the forecast.

Anyone on holiday, don't bother checking in for your flight home if you have the opportunity
