    Quite blustery this morning in south Dublin but the sky is a beautiful gin blue flecked with white clouds.
    It’s fairly warm in the sun but the breeze has a bit of a chill in it when it blows.
    Lovely morning.

    A lovely morning in West Clare, hazy sunshine and bright.

    I feel an impromptu half day coming up 😀

    Is it really?

    It was fairly dry for June and some of July, but it's been constantly windy and often it's driving drizzle that gives low totals.

    Haven't seen a temperature of over 22/23°c here since May. Oddly enough Sunday, which was a total washout, was very warm and about 22°c, whereas Monday, a much sunnier drier day, was cooler.

    Nope, really we should be a rich nation by haversting the power of the wind for renewable energy.

    a nice day in Meath, warm and sunny however that wind is annoying. This weekend looks half decent first one in a while.

    Some parts of Dublin seem to very lucky lately. It's overcast and very windy here in Lucan. Dry at the moment and warm, but not a nice day. It has rained and been windy every single day of the last fortnight here. Only nice evening was Thursday the 1st after a rainy morning, and Saturday 3rd was OK in terms of sunshine (but with wind and intermittent drizzle).

    I have to agree Hippodrome, I certainly wouldn't class today as a nice day, the wind is too strong and it's a chillywind.

    I tried sitting out for lunch I lasted 10 mins, overcast and too windy.

    Cruise liner "Nautica" was scheduled to be in Galway for the day however on arrival this morning it was deemed too rough to bring passengers ashore due to the strong wind. Now heading for Killybegs

    Humidities in the 40's in many stations on the 16:00 report on the met.ie website, pretty unusual to see that in Ireland. Good drying in that wind!

    Beautiful sunset after a lovely day in Meath.

    While it's the same sky over us all my friend sent me her view of grey skies in the West - NE Galway - with rain for them. 😮

    It was nice indeed, Sutton in Dublin this evening. The wind finally gave it a rest too.

    Out and about at times today in Tralee and enjoyed the fresh air and blue skies, started a bit on the cool side but from early there was good sunshine and could feel the air heating up , quite pleasant in the afternoon, clouded over late afternoon as expected and drops around 18.00 , been light drizzle on and off this evening.

    High of 20.2C and currently 15.9C

    Looks like a marker buoy or fender buoy. Smashing photo.

    August is already showing as wetter in comparison to May, June and July which had about 60% of average rainfall. 30mm already in Mace Head which only had 6mm up to the 20th of July. I have already noticed water levels rising from being consistently below the 95th percentile. The growth has also taken off with the warm damp weather. Farmers will be pleased. Fishermen too.

    Corrib River water levels ⇒

    Realtime waterlevel

    It has turned into a lovely morning out west now. Warm and sunny.

    What are they doing in the Hyacinth House?
