IRISH STARGAZERS ARE being encouraged to look to the skies this week to catch a glimpse of a supermoon that will be visible over Ireland. . . .
. . . . However,
heavy clouds and rain showers might spoil the view for some people across the country. . . .
. . . . While the moon will be most visible on Tuesday, the weather may mean that
it will be clouded. . . .
. . . .Speaking to
The Journal, Carlow Weather’s Alan O’Reilly said there is a
low-pressure system coming through tomorrow night.
“There’s going to be
a lot of showers and cloud around tomorrow night, and there’s
not likely to be too many breaks in the cloud,” he said.
However, he said there may still be a good chance of seeing the supermoon tonight, when there will be some
breaks in the cloud. . . . .
“Around the time the moon is rising tonight, there
could be a good
few areas that will have a
break in the cloud so they
may well spot the moon rising,” he said.
“It will mainly be in the southern half the country but a chance further north for a few spots as well,
though there will be some showers around in the north.”
There will also be
some breaks in the cloud on Wednesday night, but there
will be quite a bit of cloud around, O’Reilly said.
. . .“
Tomorrow we’ve got a spell of rain moving up later on in the afternoon.
It’s a wet night tomorrow night so there’s very little chance of seeing the moon from that.
“Wednesday night, we’re
probably clearing out again from that rain, so there’s
probably a fairly good chance of seeing it.”
Clouds and rain showers might spoil the view for some people across the country, however.

Actually the serious news here is that there's too much rain and cloud cover even for an Irish summer.
The next two weeks are forecasting more of the same - Goodbye summer.
Q.. Do people really pay €30 to Camp for the night?
