THIS HAS TO HAPPEN.
I can’t get too excited as a couple of weeks ago, we were promised a heatwave and that fell through.
However, the majority of the country experienced glorious weather last weekend so positive thinking all the way.
Our lovely JOE bros have alerted us to the fact that “record temperatures” are predicted for Ireland during the second half of May.
Forecaster James Madden has said that “heat surges” are set to travel from the continent which will result in baking hot temperatures.
There’s another prediction too and this is where it gets really exciting with Madden saying that both Ireland and the UK are set for “heatwave after heatwave” this summer.
Here’s what he had to say:
“Despite a much fresher and slightly more unsettled outlook in the coming days, there is now agreement that high pressure will dominate for the remainder of May.
“This will allow many parts of the country to bask in well above-average temperatures – with a number of heat surges around the mid month period and during the final third of the month.
“All of this will deliver optimum conditions for heatwave after heatwave during the start of the meteorological summer, and several of these heat surges are likely to be of some major significance in terms of the maximum recorded temperatures”.
Now if that doesn’t brighten up your Tuesday, I’m out of ideas.
