    This morning is grim alright. It hasn’t been too bad here in south east. Not that warm but very dry. But today is something else.

    Come on now think positively, I will actually get my walk in today, it will be around a shopping centre buying suncream etc for my holidays to get away from this godforsaken country. 😉

    The weather in Wicklow Town this morning is just ridiculous. It's bucketing down with 70kmph gusts. Such a dreary and dismal summer so far.

    Someone said a few posts back that they've only had dinner on the patio once this year and that's definitely similar to my experience. I'm still in jeans and long sleeves most of the time and our garden furniture is still in the shed!

    That's why that had to change the wording to climate change because it made no sense in Ireland😉

    As the old saying goes, it would be a great little county if you could put a roof on it.

    even with a roof we'd still have no sunshine and it would be cold, in feckin' summer, and the roof would eventually blow away

    We could invest in some of those UV lamps they use in sunbeds, it'd be the finest.

    Absolutely horrendeus morning here in Meath, cold wet and plenty of surface water. Ireland is getting the raw end of the stick this June with the weather, much like the way we did throughout summer of 2020. The Brits like to moan about their 'bad weather' but in reality they don't even know the meaning of a bad summer till they spend 3 months in Ireland and experience what an Irish summer is like where getting a few hours of sunshine or temperatures over 18C is a struggle.

    Following up on this post, the national running average wind speed to 27th June for 2022 is 9.1 kts. Here's how that compares to Junes since 2010 nationally from windiest to calmest.

    2017 9.7 kts

    2015 9.4 kts

    **2022 9.1 kts**

    2020 8.8 kts

    2019 8.5 kts

    2012 8.5 kts

    2011 8.3 kts

    2013 8.2 kts

    2021 8.0 kts

    2016 7.3 kts

    2018 6.9 kts

    2010 6.9 kts

    2014 6.7 kts

    The 71-00 average for June is ~8.6 kts - give or take there is some margin of error in this figure. It is more an approximation than an exact figure due to missing averages for some stations. Nonetheless, can clearly see again 2022 will be a windier than average month.

    About as non-summery as ya can get here in Dublin last night and this morning. Pouring rain overnight, it was proper heavy for a time locally and windy then further rain this morning and gloomy. Drier now whilst still windy and cloudy.

    20.1c is our high for 2022 so far in Sligo.

    The last year I remember being this cold was 2011 or 2012 when 22.5c was our high. Every other year we have had higher than 24c up to 31c.

    Wonder does Sryan have any details on the coldest year for max temperatures recorded in the Northwest. I only started taking stock of it in 2005 and this year is in 1st place for Jan to June low max.

    Maybe July or August will beat the 22.5c but as we saw in 2011 once a NW slider Summer gets stuck it's very hard to move.

    I'd say the Azores high will make a few pushes but keep getting pushed South so only Munster and Leinster will be drier and warmer in July

    I hate it when the sun comes out between the showers, and you can feel the heat. Its like its toying with you.
