Summer 2024 - General Discussion

Yes it does depend on air temps but yesterday was warm and muggy after the rain which is perfect for growth. I am not sure what the future holds temperature wise but anything around room temperature will be ideal.

Go shopping and come back to ice.

A couple of real hefty showers, so hefty that the rain bouncing off the skylight in my bedroom woke during my lunchtime nap : (

N.Kildare, feeling much more humid and warm than last few days. As i look outside now, another very darkish set of clouds are about to rollover

Drove Meath to Galway. Totally surprised no heavy showers. Unreal cloud constantly in the distance.

And in fairness to you Cluedo, you would make the black death seem like a mere cold, that eager are you to make the best of things.😀😀

But he's not right at all and nor are you. Irish people have spread all over the world and built the world, often in huge temperatures. Irish people are well able to adapt to extreme weather and the modern paddy loves a sun/heat holiday where temps are very much in excess of what we'd be used to at home. Younger paddy takes no notice of living /working for years in very different climates and fair play to him! Have many of us not done that in our youth? I certainly did. Therefore acclimating to reasonably hotter temperatures at home would not be a problem, imo, and no major issues were noted n recent heatwaves at home where the mercury went high for reland.

Anyway, normal service back n Alicante tg. Sunny and warm. Need to replenish the vitamin D before heading home n a week. But getting there.😎

Hard to make it out but some mammatus half an hour ago ahead of that front moving in now.

Sun has come out and blue sky

Completely different to the met forecast at 11pm last night

it has brightened up since early morn.

wasn’t sure why I had a headache and was sweating while doing the mopping to realise I’ve had the heat on since 5am

🤢🥵

Think the winter thread should be reopened!!! Cold wet and windy. Pure misery

wet 10 degrees

Rain has cleared Galway, surprised as was expecting a wet day today. Yesterday was also nice here. The temperatures this summer are cool, hopefully it warms up for July and August.

It's actually getting nicer in the far North.

Currently everyone is out the back, enjoying the sun. Slight breeze but there is plenty of heat in the sun and actually have the shorts on for the 1st time this summer.

Quare drying day!

Yip, its cracking.
