"Yonder sky has wept tears of compassion on our fathers for centuries untold, and which, to us, looks eternal, may change. Today it is fair, tomorrow it may be overcast with clouds. My words are like the stars that never set." Attributed to Chief Seattle, see the full speech here I'm delighted to announce the link up to our brand new weather station here in Allihies. Live data now flows from our own monitoring station every few minutes via the server in my office to, not only the Allihies.ie web site but also to the wider world via our page on the Weather Underground network (station ICORKCAS2). Click on the link on the top menu bar or on the left and you can view untold detail about what is happening right now in Allihies. The left side panel here on the front page also shows details of the sea conditions just off Mizen Hea, data is supplied from a Met Office weather buoy and from passing ships. It's very useful to have the sea temperature if you are heading for a swim! As ever any praise, apologies or corrections via the contact page please. Regards Dave Weasely small print: As with any web site, weather predictions and data collection these figures cannot be fully guaranteed and as such you should not base any risky activity on data or predictions on this site.
