I'm hoping to sail in my sisters husband's boat from next Monday onwards from county Cork to North West Spain .I'm just a passenger not a sailor but he is needing some help in a good window for the right time.. can anyone help with what the models are showing as there are very different variations and maybe someone can up up with a decent window.. The trip is expected to be 4 days..
We have had avery dry spell since 27th May and our reservoirs are low as we are in a very rare heat spell for us. Pretty much since the 12th of July we have had clear skies and since last Sunday tempeatures have reached 29 -31 degrees apart from testerday 27.6 which will be breached again today. The irish are not used to this so 4 million people water there gardens constantly and paddling pools all sold out. We also feel its ridiculous to ban some use as we know its the terrible harbringer of rain. I myself am out sunbathing for the umpteeenth day in a row and its been bloody marvelous with 22 -26 degrees for the last 10 days in Dublin its paradise and swimming for 1st time since 2018 with a beautiful water temp. You never really need 30 degree heat thats why I go to greece but what I will say is there is no place like home when the sun shines.
Here Dublin apart from May which was dreadful we have had a very decent spell with very dry weather and abundant sunshine. I can honestly say it feels like we are having a london summer and you are having a scottish one.
270c at 1pm in Newport county Mayo currently , the west of Ireland keeps producing the high temps and many weather stations are 6 -8 degrees celsius above average with close to or above 12hrs of sun a day since the 14th July.. Whoop Whoop..
I wonder why meto alarm have nothing yet for Germany as those storms are marching towards the country and lighning strikes are becoming much more prolific.
Can I ask a maybe silly question but if some really good thunderstorms move in midweek is drone footage possible from a height for spectacular footage..
Beautiful sunny weather and warm too this morning until 10 30 am now very cool and dark with awful laden skies,I give up as this was mot forecast but as many say it is the part of the world we are placed.
We had a high national temperature of 240c in phoenix park Dublin and 22.3 oc at Dublin airport andn only 2.1 hrs of sunshine and there was 22.8mm of rain that day in valentia county kerry..
