Southern Ireland

[Winged one]

We saw a yellow orb in the sky on Saturday, that seemed to give some warmth to the ground!!! 'Twas but a fleeting illusion though, as we were back to the wet stuff yesterday (lashing most of the day).

Today it is cloudy, but not too dull (high enough clouds), and cool but dry (13 degrees this morning, but a few degrees warmer now). Still chilly enough to have worn a jumper to work for the first time this autumn....

Blimey Winged - I was out pruning my currant bushes in a T-shirt this afternoon - 19 C and sunshiny (bit of a shock mind )

Piddling down all day yesterday, and today we awoke to sunshine and warmth!! A lovely autumn day in Dublin today - even warm enough to go out without a jacket, which makes a nice change!

Quite a nice morning weatherwise. However in the afternoon all changed. Black sky and thundery rain. Change in the temp tonight, gone really cool for the first time this autumn.

Today was lovely - cold but sunny. As soon as the sun dips though, it's bliddy freezing !!!
Time for the thicker duvet I reckon.

weather has been cold over the Christmas, but nothing like the british isles. No rain, a little sunshine most days and cold and sometimes frosty nights.

And very changeable too. Last night at 10.30 pm we had to de ice the car to get home and were slipping on uicy driveways to do that. This morning at 6.45am it was raining (drizzly icky rain) and by 10am it was blazing sunshine although bitterly cold again.

Clouds have just pulled across the sky, as the sun sets (like a duvet to keep us warmer tonight) and they are nice and high (so hopefully it will stay dry too). Lovely colours outside my office window to distract me from serious economic type stuff - lovely!!

After almost continuous rain since the summer, (except 10 days in September)its actually been a nice dry couple of weeks here with just the odd spell of rain, we're starting to clear and dig the ground over ready for the big kick off later this month.

Here's to a much much much dryer, warmer and calmer year for all, so that we can all grow our veggies and actually get to eat them as well this year


cheers,

KC

A beautiful day yesterday (Wed) sunshine and lovely bright clear sky.
Today, gale force winds with driving rain tonight. absolutely awful.

What can i say about the weather. For the past week we have had snow sleet, hail rain and gale force icy winds. Must be the worst winter for a very long time.

A nice day today. Dry, sunny but bitter cold.

..been a nice couple of weeks here in the West. Mild, no real rain, just the odd bit of drizzle... Lovely gardening weather to tackle the weed-infested plot

Glorious day today, bright and sunny although there was still a nip in the air.

Dublin City absolutely thronged with people watching the parade which was great.

Brilliant atmosphere and my granddaughter just loved every minute.

Miserable and wet here today. The last few days wer'nt too bad although the breeze is still very nippy.
