Dublin

As we move into Friday, December 6, 2024, we're greeted with a day that starts off with a chill in the air. Midnight temperatures in Dublin will be around 6.4 degrees, feeling more like 3.6 due to the wind chill. The early hours might catch us with clear skies transitioning to a partially cloudy environment, with temperatures dropping slightly as the night progresses. Early morning hours remain brisk, hovering around 5 degrees but feeling as if it's closer to 3 degrees, with a notable westerly wind gusting up to 40 kilometers per hour.

By 6 AM, the skies will turn overcast, and as you head into your morning routine, you’ll notice a thick blanket of clouds. This cloud cover will be persistent, with humidity levels around 80 to 85 percent, meaning the air will feel quite damp. Temperatures in the morning will improve slightly, reaching 6 degrees by 10 AM, with the apparent temperature closely matching it, making that morning cup of coffee feel more comforting.

As we approach midday, rain will begin to make its presence known, with a significant probability of precipitation kicking in around 11 AM. The rain will be consistent and should continue through the afternoon. We anticipate heavier showers between 1 PM and 4 PM, with the rainfall being quite substantial at times. Winds will also pick up considerably, with gusts reaching 74 kilometers per hour in the afternoon, especially affecting those near open areas.

The rain will dominate the afternoon and evening, eventually tapering off into lighter showers as night falls. Temperatures will rise throughout the day, reaching as high as 13.8 degrees by the evening. However, it won't feel as warm due to high humidity and persistent wind conditions.

For those preparing for the day, it's essential to wear waterproof clothing and consider windproof jackets due to the blustery conditions. Motorists and cyclists should exercise extra caution, particularly in the late afternoon when the rain and winds are at their strongest. The roads will likely be slick, increasing the risk of accidents. Elderly individuals and young children should dress warmly and consider staying indoors during the peak rainfall and wind periods. Dog walkers might want to give the usual evening stroll a miss or at least prep for a very wet outing.

Overall, Friday will be a day dominated by changing skies and persistent rain, so keeping an umbrella or raincoat at hand would be wise. Expect a day where indoor activities will be preferable.
