This coming weekend is set to be a a washout across the north and west of Ireland with rest of country hopefully seeing drier than normal conditions
After a weekend of warm sunshine and blue skies, Met Eireann is predicting above average rainfall for many parts of the country throughout September and the beginning of next month.
Whilst Met Eireann explicitly states long range weather forecasts are notoriously difficult to definitively predict, it did, however, paint a somewhat bleak picture for many parts of the country over the coming weeks. "The *might* has become a definite regarding Atlantic low pressure being too close by for Scotland, N. Ireland, & Ireland to join in with dry weather throughout Fri-Sat," wrote Meterologist, James Peacock, on X on Monday.
The further into the future we go, the more difficult it becomes to forecast the weather however, Met Eireann says "much of the country will experience unsettled weather" in the middle of September.
