Sunday Weather Report – 01 June 2025
Sunday marks the beginning of June but don’t expect summer to start off smooth. A cold front is tightening its grip across Ireland, dragging a mix of cloud cover, sun breaks and relentless showers—some of them heavy, particularly in the north. As the scattered bursts move eastwards, the northwest wind grows more aggressive, especially inland and along exposed coasts. The only promise? It clears into a colder night. While Sunday morning may trick you into heading out, don’t let your guard down—June is coming in cold, gusty and wet.

Today’s Overview
June opens with a sting. The north and west face the heaviest downpours through the day, but the east doesn’t go unscathed. Gusty northwesterlies will dominate across the country, adding a chill that makes the 14 to 18 degree highs feel colder. Sunny spells will punctuate the gloom, but don’t count on them lasting. Coastal counties should stay alert for stronger gusts, especially during the afternoon. Showers move through fast, but hit hard while they’re here.
Tonight’s Forecast
As the showers ease off, skies across Ireland begin to clear. Sunday night will be mostly dry, though residual mist and fog patches may develop—especially in lowland inland regions. Temperatures will fall to between 6°C and 9°C, bringing a crisp end to an unstable day. Winds die down overnight, but the drop in temperature makes a jacket essential for late-night travel. Farmers should take note of the drying conditions as the winds ease and humidity stabilises.
What You Should Know
No weather warnings have been issued yet, but gusty northwest winds and strong inland showers make for hazardous outdoor conditions in some regions. UV levels remain moderate despite the cloud, especially during brief sunny spells. The clash of seasons continues with humid early air giving way to clearer, crisper night skies. People in the north and northwest should prepare for the wettest weather, while eastern counties may enjoy a brief reprieve late in the day.
Looking Ahead
The start of next week keeps conditions unsettled. Monday continues the mix of sun and scattered showers, though temperatures remain fairly consistent. The west may face another frontal system by Tuesday. While no major storms are in sight, June is off to a rocky, unpredictable start—so keep your plans flexible and your jackets close.
