Sunny, dry and mild conditions on the way with temperatures to reach 14 degrees

It’s set to be a sunny day across the country today.

SOME GOOD NEWS, it’s going to be a mild, dry and sunny few days ahead as we enter the weekend. 

It’s set to be a sunny day across the country today, with temperatures ranging between 8 and 11 degrees. 

Met Éireann has said there will be some light and patchy rain in the west of Munster tonight, but it will be a clear night elsewhere in the country. 

Tomorrow, it’s forecast to be mainly dry in all areas, with a risk of some rain along the west coast early in the day. 

Looking at Sunday, Met Éireann says it will be a dry, sunny day with temperatures ranging between 12 degrees in the west and 10 degrees in the east. 

It will be cold overnight on Sunday, with temperatures dipping below freezing, the forecaster said. 

Monday is expected to be dry with a good deal of sunshine, with afternoon temperatures of up to 14 degrees possible. 

It’s due to remain dry overnight on Monday, with temperatures falling back to between 5 and 3 degrees. 

Met Éireann has said the settled spell looks set to continue through Tuesday, with another dry day on the cards with sunshine and temperatures between 12 and 14 degrees. 

Current indications from the forecaster suggest a southerly wind with the possibility of outbreaks of rain from Wednesday onwards.

    Is anybody else having a problem with Ryanair refunds for cancelled flights. Cancelled by them.
    The online application keeps rejecting the reservation number. Also when it repeats the code it has airplane noise in the background. Seems as if designed to make you fail. And phoneline engaged constantly.
    People need their money back now.
    And in law we are entitled to get in within 7 days. Of course that’s from application date.
    Could I suggest that Ryanair post a notice saying that all cancelled flights will be reimbursed without any application deadline applying. People like me will wait for reasons of solidarity.
    Also, might opt to book another flight rather than money back.
    Step upto the plate Mr O Leary.

    @chinaski: Don’t know about Aer Lingus or other airlines. People booked when they were working. Now they need all the money they can get. If they knew it was coming they could maybe borrow from relatives.
    To help others, I would be prepared to wait for repayment for say 14 days, if there was a box I could tick. Or even say 21 days or longer to free things up.
    A validation of the claim fine by me

    @Aidan Baragry: Deadline is on them. Within 7days for repayment under EU law. IF they just put up a notice on website reassuring prople, then anxiety relieved.
    Time for Regulator or Minister to intervene.
    You can get a retrieval if you paid by credit card but it takes time.

    My life partner, whom I tolerate only for their bedroom skills, has become unbearable during this time of semi-isolation. After a morning of frantic perversion when I found myself suffering from extreme sexual exhaustion, the said partner undertook to prepare a meal to restore my energies. My dear tormentor is not allowed to cook since she poisoned the dog but, for the times that are in it, I relented and so was produced a lumpy slurry of beans onions and garlic sausage. I forced in down against my better judgment and now I’m breaking wind at such a rate that I expect Met Eireann to issue a code orange alert. The point I want to make is that I need to vacate the lodgings and will take myself to walk along the east pier of Dun Laoghaire harbour. Anyone intending to partake of the same recreation should be advised that the 2 metre social distancing will not be sufficient and I strongly recommend that they walk on the west pier instead.
