🌬 The Weather Thread part 2 (Part 1)

What utter bollocks. Irish farmers have fuck all to do with it. Have a look at emissions across the world and see that what any of us do is utterly negligible.

The new bottle cap initiative will surely turn thw corner of the weather.

No fear of any dust kicking up in Limerick today. Lashing the last hour

There’s a match tonight in Sligo and then Galway Armagh at lunchtime tomorrow. If the pitch is heavy it’ll be worse

It’s supposed to ease off this afternoon :crossed_fingers:t2:

BBC weather stated it was the coolest June on record so far this year……

Been a lot colder in Manc than here anyway

Follow the science

Absolutely lashing down in Mid West Tipperary.

Just awful stuff.

Never in my forty years on this planet have I experience a summer as cold as this one, wtf is going on!

May and June have been positively Baltic, it feels more like October than summer. Even in previous summers when it’s been very wet, there’s been an underlying warmth/humidity. It’s just not present this year. Even when the sun does come out, it doesn’t feel particularly warm.

I’d love to know what’s causing it……

Methane and carbon

Weird you cant remember last summer though

Its a sure sign you need to be taxed more and have bottle caps tethered to bottles…that’ll turn the corner on climate change…

May was good by all accounts…

War is peace. Freedom is slavery. Ignorance is strength

This weather reminds me of the summer I spent in Newfoundland. cc @Little_Lord_Fauntleroy

… and rain is wet.

If cold is good, then yes it was.

Those two are supposed to heat things up, not cool things down.

Last summer was wet from end of June onwards but not particularly cold. In fact May was quite warm.

yep, as a whole they heat up but oireland will get wetter stormier weather

Saw that, and to be honest I’m still scratching my head. It certainly feels a lot colder than it is, last month was no different. Apart from the first week in May, growth has been poor.
