After the heatwave, it’s back to the usual.
While we hope that nobody is nursing an extreme case of sunburn after the recent spate of good weather, it appears that the conditions are reverting to the norm.
Ah well, the sunshine was nice when it lasted.
As stated previously, the weather has taken a turn for the worse because a status yellow weather warning is in place. There’s a wind warning for Galway, Mayo, Clare, Cork and Kerry.
Take heed of the following conditions: “Later tonight and for a time on Friday morning, in coastal areas, southerly winds will reach mean speeds of 55 to 65 km/hr with gusts of up to 90 km /hr.
The warning is in place from 11:00 to Friday 11 May 2018 09:00.
In terms of a broader weather report, these dour conditions are expected to carry into Friday morning because it’s expected to be raining throughout the country. This rain will gradually clear eastwards through the afternoon with sunshine and showers following.
Friday night is expected to be dry and conditions will improve by Saturday with temperatures rising to between 12 and 14 degrees.
However, with low pressure nearby there’s the chance of widespread showers. Saturday night is looking mainly dry but cold again with minimum temperatures in low single figures.
Sunday is expected to have similar conditions but any showers are expected to die out by Sunday night with a cold night to follow.
