The climate of Ireland is mild, humid and changeable with abundant rainfall and a lack of temperature extremes. Ireland 's climate is defined as a temperate oceanic climate, or Cfb on the Köppen climate classification system, a classification it shares with most of northwest Europe. [1][2] The island receives generally warm summers and cool ...
Met Éireann headquarters in the Glasnevin area of Dublin. The history of modern meteorology in Ireland dates back to 8 October 1860, when the first weather observations were transmitted from Valentia Observatory on Valentia Island in County Kerry to the British Meteorological Office. A network of weather stations was established around the ...
About. Mace Head Atmospheric Research Station was established in 1987, and is still in operation. [3] The current station manager is Mr Gerry Spain, who has held this position for the last 20 years. [4] The station PI/Contact is Professor Simon O’Doherty, who runs trace gas measurement at the University of Bristol, and the station CO-PI is ...
Clutter (radar) Clutter[1][2] is the unwanted return (echoes) in electronic systems, particularly in reference to radars. Such echoes are typically returned from ground, sea, rain, animals/insects, chaff and atmospheric turbulences, and can cause serious performance issues with radar systems. What one person considers to be unwanted clutter ...

[2] After graduating with a degree in Experimental Physics from University College Dublin in 1990, [3] Murphy joined Met Éireann in 1992. [2] He received meteorological training in Reading ...
The Met Office is one of only two World Area Forecast Centres or WAFCs, and is referred to as WAFC London. The other WAFC is located in Kansas City, Missouri, and known as WAFC Washington. WAFC data is used daily to safely and economically route aircraft, particularly on long-haul journeys. The data provides details of wind speed and direction ...
EUMETNET groups naming lists by colour. Weather system naming in Europe follows several multinational schemes under the EUMETNET framework. On the north Atlantic coast, the United Kingdom's Met Office, in collaboration with its Irish counterpart Met Éireann and, since 2019, its Dutch counterpart the Royal Netherlands Meteorological Institute (KNMI), [1] decided to introduce a storm naming ...
The scale of dBZ values can be seen along the bottom of the image. Decibel relative to Z, or dBZ, is a logarithmic dimensionless technical unit used in radar, mostly in weather radar, to compare the equivalent reflectivity factor (Z) of a remote object (in mm 6 per m 3) to the return of a droplet of rain with a diameter of 1 mm (1 mm 6 per m 3).
