Where Mullinahone’s numbers come from

Averages over 30 years, not a forecast.

  • Temperature and rain: Met Éireann’s 1991–2020 averages on its 1 km grid (Climatological Notes 22 and 23), read at the grid point nearest Mullinahone’s population centre (0.4 km away).
  • Weather station: the nearest of Met Éireann’s 25 synoptic stations, Oak Park, 56 km north-east, from Met Éireann’s station list.
  • Frosts and degree days: Oak Park’s daily readings, 2004–2020, in the station table only: past 40 km they don’t stand for the town.
  • Then and now: Met Éireann’s 1981–2010 averages on the same 1 km grid, at the same point.
  • Altitudes: the town’s ground from the Copernicus GLO-30 surface model (a few metres high in built-up places), the station’s from Met Éireann.
  • Comparisons: every Irish town and city neighbourhood of 2,500 or more, read the same way; the five city totals are left out.
  • Not on this page: sunshine, frost days, warm days, snow and wind. Met Éireann publishes no 1991–2020 grid for them, only tables for its stations, so no town has a figure of its own.

July is the warmest month, with average highs of 20.1°C.

How cold does Mullinahone get in winter?

The coldest nights come in January, averaging 2.3°C. Met Éireann counts frosts only at its weather stations, so there is no frost count for the town itself.

How sunny is it?

Yes: they are Met Éireann’s 1991–2020 averages on its 1 km grid, read at Mullinahone’s population centre. The nearest of its synoptic weather stations, Oak Park, is 56 km north-east.

Where do these figures come from?

Met Éireann’s 1991–2020 climate averages, published as maps of Ireland in 1 km squares (Climatological Notes 22 and 23); the page reads the square at Mullinahone’s population centre. They are 30-year averages, not a forecast.
