IF you didn’t already know Winter 2015/16 was a very wet one.

So much so that on Tuesday, February 16, Valentia observatory recorded its wettest day since 1982 – that’s 34 years!

Met Eireann recorded, 43.6 mm of rainfall on that date making it one of those truly miserable midweek days.

Across the board, last winter was wetter and milder than normal, with six named storms that brought their fair share of disruption.

Valentia Observatory also recorded eight days over the course of the month that had less than a half hour of sunlight. Hey, good thing spring has finally sprung and we can enjoy this type of fine weather…
