A Warm end to May

The month ends on a dry and briefly warm note with temperatures of up to 24c over this weekend. Then as the High shifts to the West of Ireland we see the return of the cursed volcanic Northerlies and the temperatures plummet once more. One advantage of the lack of a continuous stream of warm Southerlies is that the warm air is having little chance to influence our weather in the form of heavy and thundery rain and any rain coming from the North is being blocked by the High out in the Atlantic. It looks like the High will stay near the Azores for the start of June too keeping our weather cooler than we would expect for this period.
