NZ weather guru predicts a warm summer

Weather guru Ken Ring is predicting a warm summer for Ireland but without a repeat of the tropical temperatures which lifted the nation last year.

The long-range forecaster, who predicted last year’s heatwave and our arctic winter in 2010, uses the moon, sun, and tidal activity to make his forecast months in advance.

The New Zealand weather expert is predicting that February will be the coldest month of the year, while August will be the warmest month.
