Minus zero (-0) indicates values between 0 to -0.5☌. It forecasts air temperature on land and over sea in ☌ for the top of each hour, 3 hourly and finally 6 hourly intervals up to 7 days. The temperature is direct model output from Numerical Weather Prediction models but is a guideline only. This service is based on data and products of the European Centre for Medium-range Weather Forecasts (ECMWF). However, in the text forecast below, it is described as where it is blowing from. The wind arrow tip points in the direction the wind is blowing and the tail length indicates wind strength. It forecasts the strength of the wind (in knots and km/h) at 10m for the top of each hour, in hourly, then 3 hourly and finally 6 hourly intervals up to 7 days. The wind is direct model output from Numerical Weather Prediction models but is a guideline only. This service is based on data and products of the European Centre for Medium-range Weather Forecasts (ECMWF) It forecasts how much rain will fall (in mm) hourly during the previous hour (accumulations), then in 3 hourly and finally 6 hourly accumulations up to 7 days. Rain refers to precipitation, which can be rain, sleet or snow. The rainfall forecast is direct model output from Numerical Weather Prediction models but is a guideline only. Met Éireann forecasters manually produce the weather icons for midday and midnight to reflect the predicted major weather type for these times. Images are a combination of Met Éireann and Met Office radar in Dublin, Shannon,īelfast and Wales, when available. They are artefacts (false echoes) of rainfall radar systems and should be Dublin), Bright Bands and spokes may also be They are red but change to orange and then yellow after a period, then disappear. Lightning strikes, when they occur, are displayed as a cross.
