Giants Causeway (County Antrim) weather

Headline:

Dry Sunday with some cloud and occasional bright spells.

This Evening and Tonight:

The vast majority staying dry through the evening and overnight. Rather cloudy but some cloud breaks developing towards dawn. Southerly winds occasionally fresh across the coasts. Minimum temperature 5 °C.

Sunday:

Some early brighter spells but cloud increasing with light rain reaching western districts mid to late afternoon, which extends to all counties during the evening. Maximum temperature 10 °C.

Outlook for Monday to Wednesday:

Monday rather cloudy with the odd shower in south, but some limited brightness expected in north. Tuesday and Wednesday mainly cloudy with some patchy rain about, but also drier interludes.

A transition to a rather more changeable and at times unsettled weather pattern is likely to occur during the first few days of this period. Outbreaks of rain and freshening winds will probably make inroads from the southwest during Thursday ahead of conditions more widely becoming wetter and windier by the weekend. A return to periods of rain followed by showers, often accompanied by strong winds looks likely for the rest of the month, with the potential for weather warnings or even a named storm at some point before the month is out. Temperatures at least should recover in most places, ending up near average or even a little above, though admittedly not feeling like it at times.

The start of February is likely to continue on an unsettled and relatively mild theme, with periods of rain, showers and strong winds, alternating in most parts with short-lived brighter and cooler interludes. Pressure may build across southern areas towards mid-month, which would result in longer drier and more-settled spells here, albeit with an increased chance of overnight fog and frost.
