I see that Dublin Airport exceeded 100 mm the other day yet again, for the third month in a row. The last time this happened was November/December 2015 and January 2016. It was also exceeded in March, so four months this year so far, which is very rare. It's also already a wetter year than 2021 and 2022, and there are still three of the wettest months of the year on average to get through.

I'm glad to have mostly escaped this rubbish, having missed half of July, most of August, and all of September. I'm in Reykjavik for the next few months and we had an excellent August and a pretty good run of weather the last two weeks or so, including grass frosts and three completely sunny days. I wasn't here in July but it's worth noting that they had the sunniest July on record, by a good margin too, and a very dry one at that. June was poor, so it's been pretty much the opposite of what the weather was like in Ireland!

Stunning autumn morning out there, enjoy the dry weather while you can!

Hippodrome Song Owl · 23-09-2023 12:17pm

Absolutely gorgeous morning in Celbridge after a cold night. Bright, dry and really fresh. So enjoyable to get out in it. Such a shame it's to be replaced with awful rain in a couple of hours.

Dazler97 · 23-09-2023 3:46pm

Met eirrean saying possible stormy on Wednesday but also met Office showing a strong low on Wednesday mid morning, met eirrean models on the other hand can't make head nor tale of it they keep changing

Beautiful morning Meath. I was in a tshirt.

Full winter coat by 3pm sun disappeared along with any heat. Cool and full grey cloud cover since 3pm. No rain.

14⁰ Meath

Hippodrome Song Owl · 23-09-2023 7:15pm

Well it turned out to be a fully lovely day as the rain has only just arrived here. We did much better than expected.

mcburns07 · 23-09-2023 7:19pm

Just back from Miami honestly what a place for weather enthusiasts. Heat sun intense rain and brilliant electrical storms on a daily basis. The heat was such a powerful and beautiful thing. Arrived back into **** dull grey miserable direland tonight. Getting ready for the next trip out of here ASAP.

Miami is some place, been a few times. I believe direct flights from Dublin soon again. Seriously thinking about going in January.It’s a great winter get away but expensive, guaranteed sun that time of year and avoid the rain/storms. Did you hang out at club deuce? Me, land is getting so wet I’m wondering where I’ll leave the cows tomorrow, about 3 weeks earlier from how wet it was last autumn which was as wet as I can remember.

I've often wanted to go miami but the humidity would kill me , I also want to experience thunderstorms pretty much every day, I've had that here in carrick for 5 days in May thought I was dreaming ,you probably think it's really mild tonight 15c currently and last night was 2c

For this weekend I don't care what rain falls after Ireland's win, nothing could knock the smile off my face ☺️

Stop that win made my year, nerve wreaking game wasn't the word but best match I've watched in a long time

Filthy morning in Cork 😐

redsteveireland · 24-09-2023 10:10am

Interesting day ahead, Orange warning for Galway from 1pm, its a big county so it could be fine in some parts and awful in others, we will see. Very mild out.

Very muggy out there, keep an eye out for a squall line crossing the country west to east this afternoon

esposito · 24-09-2023 1:01pm

Seems like Dublin will get off lightly today? Bright and dry right now in D16 with the sun even making an appearance!

zell12 · 24-09-2023 1:16pm

Heavy rain in Galway city

giveitholly · 24-09-2023 1:17pm

Looking at the radar and it looks like an orange rain warning wasn't justified for Waterford

Absolutely soul destroying weather.

Elmer Blooker · 24-09-2023 2:31pm

Dublin Airport at 102mm (so far) for Sept which means three consecutive months of 100mm+ , surely this is unusual for that station and I doubt if this has happened before in the 82 years since records began there?

It’s the driest part of the country and today is a good example how Dublin often escapes due to the Wicklow rain shadow.

alentejo · 24-09-2023 2:45pm

No the deluge that was forecast today in South Dublin

adocholiday · 24-09-2023 3:58pm

It's only just gotten nasty in Wicklow in the past 45 minutes or so. A squally, heavy band of rain just passed through Wexford and Wicklow and it's just starting to clear into the Irish sea but that's the only notable spell of rain we've had all day. It's mainly been persistent light rain all day.

I've actually recorded 6.4mm since midnight in Arklow despite a dryer interlude

13.4mm since yesterday evening

September total here is 129.6mm

Quite wet here at the moment with the wind gusting SW above 60kmh

Weather for a tall stool

Gust of 74kmh just now in the driving rain
