30 Day Weather

Wet and unsettled to near the end of September

Drier and Fair for the start of October for Ireland

After this conditions will slowly get colder and wetter.

By mid October frost is likely.

Unsettled with some Warm Spells

The rest of Spring looks like it is going to be very unsettled and showery and cold. However temperatures are set to rise as we head into May in Ireland with more in the way of sunshine and less showers. However there will not be a prolonged spell of settled weather and the sunny days will be sometimes cold liike the ones gone by.

Early May should see some decent dry days before more heavy rain or showers midmonth and this in turn will be followed by more in the way of quiet weather. Temperatures of 12 to 15 or 16c can be expected.

Warm end to Summer

As the heady days of July now seem a distant memory to those of us in the Northwest it is pleasing to see that the next 2 weeks will have very mild or warm weather in Sligo. Some parts of Ireland will get 24 or 25c especially in South central parts and should the winds turn Southeast then the mid West. August ends with dry bright weather and a Southwest wind and temperatures of 20 to 23c. Then September starts with temperatures of 24c and it is like this for the first couple of days. After this there is cool and unsettled weather dangerously close to the North coast of Ireland but the South remains near 20c whereas 14c will be the temperature in Donegal.

Cold Weather Dominates

There will be a lot of cold weather for the next month with the risk of snow on occasions and a lot of frosty nights for Ireland. Temperatures as low as minus 10c cannot be ruled out as we head into February. The Atlantic is fighting a losing battle and there will only be a few mild days here and there but the predominant theme will be a cold one with temperatures of around 4 to 7c the norm. However there will be times when the weather will actually be colder than this and temperatures on these days will struggle above freezing. These days are most likely when the is frost or snow on the ground.

Next 30 Days cool and mixed

A cool if not cold outlook for the next 30 days with some windy weather at times. In summary Ireland can expect a bit of everything as the Atlantic remains quite mobile but with the Jetstream a little further South than would be normally the case temperatures will remain quite low at times and on the odd occasion snow will be a risk especially on high ground and in the North.

There will also be a lot of windy and wet days too as active low pressure systems move close to or over Ireland and the North and West will again be most at risk from these.

Of the dry days there is a slight downside to this too as there will be frosty nights with the Jetstream so far South. 

Mild weather will not really be a feature of the weather but on a few occasions like the week before Christmas and perhaps the New Year it may be quite mild with temperatures into double figures.

Dry at first

Dry and warm for the first half of September with temperatures in the low 20s and high teens in the first and second weeks. Then in the 3rd week a bit of a change as Low pressure takes over once more and thereafter there will be showery days until the end of the month.

Warm and Unsettled

The weather remains changeable for the next 30 days with a lot more in the way of rain or showers but also some warm sunshine too as temperatures for August will continue to be above expectations. A cool and unsettled August was predicted here at weathergossip but the position of the Low pressure to the West of Irelands Shore has ensured that warmer Southerlies are streaming up over us. This will continue to be the case until the last week of August when some cooler weather may start to push in once again. Strangely despite all the rain August could well turn out to be the warmest in 6 years in some places.
