Wet and stormy Spring could be on the cards for Ireland

After the widespread Northern blocking that has occurred recently resulting in one of the driest Winters since 1995 we sure are due a bit of rain. Well never fear. For no sooner will you have said the word drought than the rivers and lakes will be bursting their banks once more.

Many Springs have come and gone in Ireland with people saying what a great start to Spring it has been no sooner to see it all dampened by a cold and with Summer. Its still too far to look at the  Summer 2017 forecastwhich early on looks quiet in the prospects with a similar pattern to whats been going on in the Winter, a lot of High Pressure about.

On the other hand, February. This month looks far more active than any of October, November, December or January but of course that wouldnt be hard as all these months had below the normal rainfall figures. The next 20 days see a much more mobile Atlantic flow moving in. Lets play it by ear and weathergossip will keep you up to date and of course this blog is regularly updated with the long term weather forecast for Ireland, where unlike other sites there is a detailed description, discussion and of course "gossip" about the upcoming weather.
