Spring 2024 - General Discussion

Was woken up during the night by a VERY heavy downpour. Miserable now dull and windy. Wxford

Poor form. Would have expected better from you. Shame on you.

Thermometer says 11c, cloudy and wet, but outside I can see my breath when exhaling

Our first evening in summer time. I'd imagine few, if anybody here, would share my view, but I'm not a fan of longer daylight in our dreary climate. Great in decent weather, but a longer day looking out at a leaden sky doesn't do it for me. Up to now I've been happy to close it out by early evening and embrace proper night, especially in the cold and damp. Blinds down, soft lights on is cosy for me and an escape. Maybe that's why I like deep winter. Looking out at it now [broad but very grey daylight] and it's depressing imo. Today was ok enough here [Tralee] until about 5PM, downhill since. And no hiding from it anymore! Just gotta hope the weather eventually improves.

Same here in Tipp,every single day there is either rain or showers,no let up whatsoever,no dry day. It's very disheartening

Stunning day in Croker today for the Donegal v Armagh game. Was half expecting the clouds to close over and it to start lashing as soon as I got back home but I was pleasantly surprised that it was such a nice evening here too in the NW. A rare occurrence!
I’ll be eating my words in the morning 😂

Woke up to rain here I'm NCD but it then turned into a cracker of a day.

The opposite of yesterday which started well but turned out woeful in the end after the morning sunshine.

I'd take an Easter like this in Galway every year. A few showers but largely dry and plenty of sun. Everyone has their grass cut.

Weather forecast was way too negative for Munster, at least around Tipp and west Waterford. No rain, mostly sunny.

Nice and dry in the whest. Carlow Weather guy was just on NT saying that March had normal rain in some western areas, but other areas got heavier rainfall totals than their average https://www.met.ie/climate/available-data/monthly-data
