On a hot day, our bodies sweat to cool down. The heat index combines the temperature and a measure of the relative humidity to give a better indication of how hot that temperature will actually feel. This service is based on data and products of the European Centre for Medium-range Weather Forecasts (ECMWF).A simple measure of how a temperature of 85 degrees Fahrenheit, for example, will likely feel different in Houston, Texas versus Los Angeles, California is the heat index. It forecasts the MSLP in hecto Pascals (hPa) for the top of that hour initially in 3 hourly intervals, then 6 hourly. The Mean Sea Level Pressure (MSLP) 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). 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. 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. They are artefacts (false echoes) of rainfall radar systems and should be ignored. Dublin), bright bands and spokes may also be present in images. Initially, they are red but change to orange and then yellow after a period, then disappear © Met Office ATDNet. Lightning strikes, when they occur, are displayed as a cross. Accumulations can refer to rainfall only. Latest Rainfall Radar showing live precipitation and the last 90 minutes precipitation over Ireland, updated every 5 minutes. Find out more about the Shannon weather radar replacement here. Changes can be expected in the radar service over the South and West of the country. Cork and two UK Met Office weather radars in Belfast and Wales, when available. During this time, the ‘Latest radar’ image shows combined information from the Dublin weather radar, a temporary weather radar operating from Co. Shannon radar undergoing replacement: From mid-May 2023 and over the summer, the Shannon weather radar is being replaced by a new weather radar system.
