Summer 2024 - General Discussion

Absolutely delighted with the timing of my holidays and return.😀 Flew off to Alicante on 8th June and missed a lot of cold weather here these past two weeks. Weather in south east Spain has been a bit underwhelming for Spain, but still warm and very pleasant, none of the searing heatwave over in Greece, though getting more like hot Spain at the end. Returned yesterday morning to a cool cloudy Kerry airport, but woke this morning to a lovely warm Tralee. A lot of cloud here as posters have been saying, but 20s temps meant I could dress like summer and spend the day in the garden comfortably. I always hate returning in summer to the cool weather here, so returning to warmth is a huge bonus and won't complain about cloud if we get a few more days of this warmth.

Enjoy it everyone.😎

Current temperatures, not bad as of 22:30

Warm muggy morning. Like yesterday, the clouds should burn off in the next couple of hours for a lovely day. 17c N Kildare

Dew 👍

Very cloudy and dark. 17C.

Ok, thanks. I would never have thought the first screenshot would be a forecast rather than actual data, because it only updates hour by hour - right now it only goes as far as 9am. And it's at the top of the same page as the second screenshot when you click on Current Observations. It almost always matches perfectly with the Latest Report data but I have just recently noticed these discrepancies for Casement.

My apologies, I was getting mixed up with the forecast weather:

Those predictions are always stupendous rubbish, often completely disagreeing with Met Eireanns own weather forecasting maps.

Thanks. Yeah, the graph I posted is now the official record of temperature for Casement under Yesterday's Weather. So anyone checking today would see 16C not 20C at 21.00. But which is correct? I wonder which will be stored under the long term records in Available Data (Daily Data) for future reference?

Actually there's a discrepancy again now at 10am. Casement listed as 21C but only showing 20C on the graph. The wind direction on the graph is also wrong - showing SE instead of the reported SW for Casement.

It actually looks like Dublin Airport data is being saved for Casement in the graph at the top and that's what's being recorded then in past weather records.

ah phew. I was wondering was I doing something wrong. Was in reap previously so happy to score the low input grassland. Although REAP was a much better scheme than ACRES.

Anyway back to the weather. Still have a lot of meadow standing. Not going to chance it this week I think.

Continental feel to the weather today.

Broken Clouds, Humid & warm, 23c

Where are you getting temperatures back to average tomorrow? MT,Met E and Carlow weather all giving temperatures in the low twenties tomorrow and Wednesday.

Indeed ,temperatures widely into the 20s Tuesday and Wednesday with sunny conditions Wednesday too ,was bemused myself reading the post

tomorrow and wednesday will be very pleasent without probably being quite as warm as today, but nonetheless, it's better than 15c, windy and rain. actually pretty much anything is better than that
