the weather
|
right, this day takes the biscuit. It simply isn't possible not to think Dublin is gorgeous on a day like today, going to hit a very pleasant 20c with a light warm wind. Last Wednesday was gorgeous too.
yet in between we've had monsoon style rain and november style chill.
there's just no way this kind of shit used to happen 25 years ago when I were a young fella (and I used to spend 4 weeks playing tennis every morning for a couple of summers - and before anyone starts saying that sounds fancy it was a dublin corporation programme that cost about £10).
Am I wrong ?

Feels like it alright.
Although I'm sure I read somewhere that we're (as in globally) actually having less earthquakes than before. It's just we're more
aware of them.
But in terms of us here - how many times in the past 5 years have we heard that X month has been the wettest since records began?

| That definitely rings true, though lord knows how you'd prove it.

| I'm fairly certain I read that met eireann released a report on this and about shifting our monthly averages both warmer and wetter.

| If this wasn't the wettest June ever I'll eat my umbrella.

wettest june since 1993.
I went to Feile that year, but thankfully that was in August.

| You'd have to be a bit scared of going to Swedish House Mafia, what with the girls in the skimpy tops and the mud and all that's going to be there.
