===Ireland diary of highlights===
September combined spells of relatively dry, settled conditions with periods of very wet weather, giving some record-breaking daily falls of rain at some stations. Temperatures were around two degrees higher than normal for most of the month, but cooler weather developed during the final week, bringing ground frost in some areas.
 
Monthly rainfall totals were above normal except in parts of Munster, with around twice the September average recorded in places; Mullingar had its wettest September since 1962. The number of wet days during the month (days with 1mm or more rainfall) was between 13 and 19 at the majority of stations, a little higher than the normal range for September. Heaviest falls were measured in the period 5th to 7th and on the 9th, 13th and 21st/22nd.
 
Widespread daily falls of between 20mm and 60mm on the 6th were the highest on record for September at some stations: Knock Airport’s fall of 86.5mm on this day was the highest daily fall at the station for any month since rainfall measurements began there in 1988. Mean monthly air temperatures were around one degree higher than normal and it was a particularly warm month in western and northwestern areas. The highest daily values were measured during the first four days of the month, when maxima of over 20°C were widely recorded. In contrast, temperatures fell well below normal at times during the final week, when some very low air and ground temperatures for September were measured in midland and eastern areas. Sunshine totals for the month were higher than normal almost everywhere, with most stations recording their sunniest days in the period 1st to 4th.
 
====1st to 3rd:====
A large area of high pressure over Ireland brought dry and mostly sunny conditions with light southeasterly winds.Daytime temperatures were well above normal, but nights were cool in eastern areas.
 
====4th to 14th:====
Slow-moving depressions over Ireland brought spells of rain or showers each day, some of which were very heavy and accompanied by thunder. The heaviest falls were recorded early in the period: fourday falls of between 60mm and 100mm were measured in many places between the 4th and 7th. Most thunder was observed in southern and eastern areas, while a tornado was reported from Allenwood, Co. Kildare, on the 10th. This period was generally mild and cloudy, with south to southwesterly winds. There were widespread gale gusts on the 13th and 14th, when a deep depression passed to the north of the country.
 
====15th to 31st:====
Falls of heavy rain were widespread on the 22nd and 28th, but rainfall amounts on most other days during this period were small, especially in eastern and southern areas. Little or no rain was recorded between the 24th and 27th. Temperatures were variable, with warm weather between the 19th and 22nd, before falling well below normal in a northerly airstream between the 23rd and 26th. Sunny spells were recorded each day, particularly in eastern areas.
