Wetter weather for middle of June - June 11th 2013

The mid part of June is going to be a lot cooler and wetter after all of the sunshine of the first 10 days. Showers are indeed going to be quite heavy in many parts and a maximum temperature of only 18c can be expected in this period. This weather will continue until the last 10 days of June when the weather in Ireland will be ok but no heatwave just a few passing light showers and temperatures of 16 to 19 or 20c

Summer 2013 Heatwave latest - June 13th 2013

Heavy rain and showers now dominate all the way up to June 18th or 19th with warmer drier weather to follow for a few days

Newport in Co Mayo has won the heatwave battle with a temperature of 25.4c recorded on Saturday June 8th. 24c was reached widely in all parts of the West and Southwest with some areas of the Northwest also benefitting. Its over for now but the last 10 days of June may bring renewed temperatures in the 20s, until then the June heatwave becomes showers bah!

Shannon again made hay on June 7th recording a max of 24.6c in glorious sunshine. Heatwave ends on June 10th unfortunately but thats a Monday so may return in time for the next weekend

Shannon got 22.5c on June 4th 2013 with 22c or in or abouts being reached widely. This weather will continue for at least 7 to 10 days

June improvement in weather - May 27th 2013

May has been a quite cool and unsettled month. The weather is set to improve somewhat over the next 10 days however with more in the way of warm and sunny weather especially in Munster and Leinster. Temperatures here could reach 20c at times. In Connaught and Ulster it may get to 17 or 18c from time to time as a more prevalent Westerly gets established with the Azores High building in toward Ireland. However there will also be some rain or drizzle at times along Atlantic coasts but amounts will be small.

Warmer end to May - May 25th 2013

As the month of May 2013 progresses in Ireland the weather is going to get slowly warmer and we will see the end of the freezing weather that has caused a fodder crisis in some parts of the country. There are slight hints that the end of May and start of June could bring about even warmer temperatures into the high teens but at the moment rainfall for the rest of May will be well below average and temperatures around or slightly above average at 13 to 19c in a West to Northwest wind

A Cold May - May 10th 2013

After what was promising to be a warm month overall with temperatures touching 20c during the start of the month it now looks highly likely that May is going to be a cold wet one. The low pressure systems will be crossing over us or to our South for most of the month. It is only in the last couple of days of May that any more warm days are possible and this is too far off to be any way certain. It is hoped that all the cold and rain will be gone by the real summertime of June and July but a long hot Summer is quite rare in Ireland indeed so a couple of weeks will be most likely in these two months. However I do see them being a vast improvement on all the rest of the year with temperatures regularly breaking 20c

Less cold as we head into mid April - April 15th 2013

The cold and ice of the start of April has now been replaced by some milder and windier weather with temperatures into double figures at last. Typical values are now 10 to 14c so the cold is probably gone until next Winter thankfully. However there are going to be a lot of bands of rain moving over Ireland from the Southwest from now until the end of the month though there will be some pleasant dry spells in between. It does not look like there will be any prolonged warm spells for the rest of April but it will feel quite pleasant in any long sunny spells as the sun moves higher in the sky with the passing of each day

Winter maintains its grip over Ireland - March 16th 2013

Icy and frosty conditions are forecast to continue for much of the rest of March and with a lot of moisture round there will be sleet and some snow in the mix also. Temperatures by night will be as low as minus 5 and by day they will be in single figures for most of the month. The end of the month of March may see some mild weather for Ireland but at the moment the cold seems to be winning through. This is due to the Low Pressures coming from Arctic regions and planting themselves over and to the South of Ireland. This produces a lot of cold air for the country and coupled with some very low sea temperatures we are seeing some prolonged cold at the moment

March with a bitter sting

Against all odds the weather for march is looking decidedly chilly for many now with some snow possible for the East coast of Ireland between the 10th and the 15th of the month. This would possibly bring the heaviest snow of what had been a reasonably cold Winter season for Ireland but one that only threatened snow instead of bringing it and saw most places only average 1 or 2 days of the stuff.

Up until the 10th of March the weather in Ireland will be mild at 11c if rather wet but as the low pressure systems are moving to the South of Ireland the cold air from the North and East is dragged down over us bringing temperatures of only 3 or 4c by day and sub zero by night. The High Pressure may win out in the end but its a cold Arctic High and whatever happens day 10 to 15 of March look very chilly indeed

As we all know March is the March of many weathers in Ireland as the Daffodils come out and the trees start to awaken but this March could be very strange indeed because there are also some tentative signals of a very mild or even warm spell to end the month so there will be all varieties of weather for Ireland long term

Finally Sligo can expect the cold but not much snow apart from Ben Bulben seeing a dusting on the top of it as the airmass will be mainly continental and not Northerly but this week will be quite a wet one in Sligo and it will feel rather cold too with a temperature of only 8 or 9c

Showery Weather for April

So after the cold weather of March what does April have in store for us in 2013. Well it does look quite showery for Ireland and cool also. The temperatures will only hold at 8 to 12c with brief periods of milder weather bringing a value of 14 or 15c. There will be plenty of sunshine in between the showers which will be more frequent in the West and South of Ireland due to the rapid convection here in comparison to the Eastern side of the country. Some of the showers will merge to give longer outbreaks of rain giving a more moderate rainfall total at the end of the month than would otherwise be the case. It is hoped that near the end of the month there will be more in the way of sunny weather and the long term weather forecast for Summer 2013 does look quite favorable at present with some long dry bright periods

May - Very cool at first but some warm sunshine at times especially in the South 7 to 20c

June - A rather warm month with thundery showers and sunshine 17 to 23c

July - Warm even hot at times with sunshine and heavy showers 20 to 25c

August - Becoming cooler and wetter in most places with rain most days 15 to 20c

September - Mild Wet and Windy with gales at times 13 to 16c

October - Less windy but cloudy and wet a lot of the time 10 to 13c

November - Raw and cold with showers of rain or hail but little snow 6 to 10c

December - Windy from the North and West with a lot of rain and little sunshine 6 to 9c
