Dublin: The Met Office has forecasted heavy rainfall for Ireland throughout the month of April, attributing it to high low-pressure systems prevailing in the atmosphere. Starting from April 1st to 7th, the southwest region is anticipated to receive rainfall above the seasonal average, with heavier showers expected from tomorrow onward, potentially exceeding 100 mm in some areas.
While the overall temperature across the country is expected to rise slightly, with most regions experiencing temperatures approximately one degree higher than usual, there will be a contrasting trend in the North and Northwest parts, where temperatures are predicted to decrease.
Moving into the second week of April, low pressure is anticipated to intensify over Ireland, shifting northwards from the northwest and bringing widespread rainfall across the nation. Despite this, the eastern part of the country is expected to maintain temperatures above the seasonal average.
Continuing into the third week, low-pressure systems are projected to persist in the northwest, ensuring a continuation of rainy conditions nationwide. Nonetheless, temperatures are anticipated to remain above average, according to the Met Office’s forecasts.
By the fourth week of April, indications suggest a potential rise in atmospheric pressure in the northwest, although temperatures are still predicted to remain above average. Rainfall is expected to persist across most areas, although observers note a relative decrease in rainfall in the west and southwest regions.
