Met Eireann Indian summer
Autumn is a time of transition, as the days get shorter and the nights get colder. But in Ireland, we often get a reprieve from the cold weather in the form of an Indian summer. An Indian summer is a period of warm, sunny weather that occurs in late autumn, after the first frosts have hit. It's a time to enjoy the outdoors, go for walks, and soak up the last of the sunshine before winter sets in.
This year, the Indian summer has been particularly mild, with temperatures reaching into the high teens. It's been a welcome respite from the wet and windy weather we've had for most of the year. People have been making the most of the good weather, with parks, beaches, and hiking trails all busy with people enjoying the sunshine.
The Indian summer is a time to cherish, as it's a reminder that even in the darkest of times, there's always hope for better weather. It's a time to reflect on the year that's been, and to look forward to the year ahead.
So, if you're in Ireland, make the most of the Indian summer while you can. Go for walks, enjoy the sunshine, and soak up the last of the warmth before winter sets in.
