Measuring and Recording Temperature - Met Éireann https://www.met.ie/.../uploads/2017/08/Lesson-Plan-Measuring-and-Recording-Temperature.pdf Calculate the average (mean)temperature for the month by adding up the temperature recorded on each day and dividing by the total number of days in the month. Celsius and Fahrenheit. There are two different temperature scales commonly used to read temperature. These are Fahrenheit and Celsius.
Temperature - Met Éireann - The Irish Meteorological Service https://www.met.ie/climate/what-we-measure/temperature The diagram below shows the mean annual temperature anomaly from 1900 to 2022 (this is the difference between the mean annual temperature and the 1961 to 1990 average value). Mean temperatures have varied considerably from year to year.
What we measure - Met Éireann - The Irish Meteorological Service https://www.met.ie/climate/what-we-measure All stations report air temperature, grass temperature, humidity and rainfall. Some stations also report soil and earth temperatures at depths varying from 5cm to 1m. The observations from these weather stations can be viewed on our Weather Observations Website WOW-IE
Temperature - Met Éireann https://www.met.ie/cms/assets/uploads/2017/08/YP-Fun-Facts-Temperature.pdf Temperature is a measure of the hotness or coldness of something. Can you see the steam rising from the cup? A thermometer is used to measure temperature. When do we use a thermometer? When we have a fever. we use a thermometer to tell our temperature. A high temperature means that we are not well.

What is Weather? - Met Éireann https://www.met.ie/cms/assets/uploads/2017/08/OP-Fun-Facts-What-is-Weather.pdf A visible satellite image measures the light reflected by the ground and clouds. The image is similar to a photo of the ground below. An infra-red satellite measures the temperature of the ground and clouds. The advantage of this type of satellite is that it may be used in darkness as well as during daylight hours. Infra-red satellite image
Upper Air - Met Éireann - The Irish Meteorological Service https://www.met.ie/climate/what-we-measure/upper-air Weather. Marine. Upper Air Wind and Temperature. Measurements. Since the atmosphere is three dimensional, there is also a requirement to take readings of essential variables above the surface. Measurements in the upper atmosphere are important as they give vital information on the vertical profiles of wind and temperature in the atmosphere.

Latest Weather Reports on 27-Mar-2024 FOR 06:00 - Met Éireann https://www.met.ie/latest-reports/observations During automatic operation, the “Weather” is estimated by an optical instrument. Classification of weather-type is significantly more difficult than measuringtemperature or pressure and the result is occasionally incorrect. In particular, you may see a very occasional report of snow during periods of foggy weather.
Atmospheric Pressure - Met Éireann - The Irish Meteorological Service https://www.met.ie/climate/what-we-measure/atmospheric-pressure Atmospheric pressure is measured at synoptic weather stations. Historically pressure was measured by means of a mercury barometer, with the air pressure given by the height of mercury supported by the atmosphere in an evacuated tube, complemented by an aneroid barograph which gave a continuous graph of air pressure.
